Hump Day Poll: What Takes YOU Back?

In a world that is spiraling down the toilet  ever changing, and sometimes not for the better, there are small things we can do to create little pockets of nostalgia from a simpler time.  It's harder and harder to find things from your childhood and if you do, often they aren't the same.  (I still lament the death of the taste of Chef Boy Ardee boxed pizza mix.  Sigh) But for me, there are a few scents that I can rely on that are still out there.  When we were dating, one of my favorite scents was that spray musk and I was tickled to still be able to find it!  One spritz of it and I'm ready for a night on the town with the teenaged Mr in his Iroc.  I was also happy to find Night Magic from Avon is still available and gives me that same feeling.  My friend got it for me last year and with as much as I use it (rarely to never), I'll have it until I'm dust.  (I did find the solid perfume compact in a bin and still have it if I want to be truly...

Thank you Hump Day Poll


I met the Mr when I was 17, and I remember my future mother in law giving me a thank you note for something I did.  I thanked her for it, and she said she always sends thank you cards.  Since I was 17 years old, I never gave it a second thought as I usually thanked people at the moment for something they did or said.  I loved the feeling of knowing someone took extra time out of their day to thank someone and how nice it feels to get snail mail.  Ever since then, I've always done thank you notes.  It's second nature.

I keep all of the ones I receive because it just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy to see that someone appreciated something I did for them or gave them.  It kind of reinforces the desire to want to keep doing things to make people smile or make their lives easier knowing its appreciated.

Do you send thank you notes?

    I always believed it was universally practiced since my mom was always insistent on sending thank you cards for everything. But mom's being mom's, she tended to do that for me and my brothers and just had us sign or write a little something in the card before she would send it out. It is a nice gesture and one that is always appreciated. There's no app for that!

    I do send thank you cards. Someone once told me that I was over the top about it, which really bothered me, but I've continued to send them anyway. I enjoy writing them and putting a smile on someone's face.
