Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)
This is our (weekly) contribution to the Ten Things of Thankful (TToT) bloghop.
Banned in more than seven countries (and two kingdoms), Bloghop #1 on UNESCO’s inaugural ‘Ten Most Subversive Weblogs’ (in early 1999) and a favorite haunt of Andy Warhol. Needless to say, the TToT has been the darling of Free Thinkers, followers of Madame Blatavsky and fans of Shirley Jackson. The latter, taking as oblique encouragement of their own little blogs, the immortal phrase, ‘Whatever walked there, walked along’.
But, as Leslie Neilson would point out, ‘That’s not important right now…’
What is (important) is the exercise in cultivating an additional perspective. A perspective on the world around us and the people who make it up that is sensitive to those people, places, things and events (both real and imagined). By doing so, we accomplish two things: 1) enhance our capacity to see the world as others are experiencing it and b) realizing the positive energy at the expense of the negative (ref: our resident positive-from-seemingly-negative maven, Mimi.)

very whimsical week – thank you
I see Una, like me, enjoys a Sunday afternoon service at Bedside Baptist.
The cottage and lawn are a delight.
I’m glad the railing repair is scheduled, you can’t put some things off and safety is one of them.
lol (Beside Baptist)
true
Such a beautiful home in the forest needs a name, don’t you think?
I agree (in principle), the thing of it is, the cottage is Phyllis’ and, as such, naming rights would be hers.
That said, she sometimes alludes to ‘Almira’s Cottage’*
