The Ways “You’ve Got Mail” changed my Life!

I know you know I love You’ve Got Mail.

132

I just in the past few months have had a rediscovery of the movie and have been really surprised at how much of it has made me do or change things.

Nothing life altering, really superficial, but you know how when you get in your head you need to do something or get something and then later realize why you had the idea. Well that is what this is like!

1. Introduced my to Pride and Prejudice. I was an old fan of Sense and Sensibility but my interest was peaked and even though it was years later I read and watched the BBC version and well I’m HOOKED!

pride and prejudice

2. Starbucks. I was not a coffee fan until I went to Starbucks!!

3. Started a Love/Hate relationship with big chain bookstores. Avoided FOR years Barnes and Noble, BUT I gave in and I am now a card carrying member of B&N!!

4. Teaching me to use reusable shopping bags! The Shop around the corner had their own great bags!!

5. Made me want to get a Laptop not a desk top computer. I didn’t have one for about 2 years after I saw this movie. But I have only ever had a Laptop!

6. To want to live in a small but perfect space!

Need I say more?

7. To write to people I don’t know online.

Blogging!!!

How great is blogging??? ♥♥♥

8. To be the Nicest person I can be!

Kathleen is the BEST!

By the way do you remember the Puppy Song from the opening credits? How could I not like this movie!

Now you know a little more about me and about how I am a different person from one really great little movie!

Sesame Street is the same age I am. Wonderful memories.

All of these great men are gone but I will never forget them or their work and it will be very hard for millions to forget them for many many many years to come!

We are very lucky to have their works live on!

Here he is ladies... My main man


Smokey the Bear
I have a long relationship with Smokey.  He is a very busy man and has a lot of forests to look after so I only get to see him once a year at our State Fair. It doesn't matter I love him.
He leaves me special treasures every year



A badge



A pink pencil does he know me or what?



a pencil sharpener of course



a ruler



And a bracelet for me! This is the first jewelery piece I've had, looks like we might get serious.
Smokey is a legend and I feel very lucky he comes to see me every year!
Hugs, Lisa

Update Sorry I really meant to give you Smokey's website. When I went to look it up I found he is celebrating 65 years of fighting Forest Fires! Smokey is one of the nations longest running  public education campaigns. Go visit http://www.smokeybear.com/ 
He has fun space for kids and for you teachers and homeschool moms tons of resources! It's a really great site that tells the story of the bear cub named Smokey that started it all!
