Firstly, NO peaking in a dictionary!!!

Today's word:

Largesse

So without looking in a dictionary - let me know what you think it means.

Come on - we all need a good laugh!!

Dictionary rambles........

Just my thoughts, nobody elses but it's had me puzzled most of the day. Is the person using a really BIG (need a dictionary) word because that is who they are or because they want you to feel like an idiot with little or no education or could it be they just believe that they are far more superior than anyone else. Remember these are just my thoughts!!!

Today while reading a blog. Don't worry - it was not one on my favourites list. There was this really big word. Not big as in long but a WTH moment. Okay, so I pull out the dictionary. An 'aha' moment and not all is lost. I learnt the meaning of a new word, although I still think saying it simply would have sounded way much better, but then that is me.

Have you got an interesting word for me. Maybe instead of a 'Thought for the day', I should have a 'Word for the day'. What do you think??

A meaningful Christmas......

Two nights ago a very special friend passed away. His wife (Lynn), daughter (Julie) and grand-daughter (Paige) are very special to me and my family. I had so hoped he would be with us for Christmas, to hang on that bit longer but it was not meant to be. That same morning that Julie let me know is the same morning I had a petty argument with Anthony over Christmas and gift buying. Looking back, a very stupid fight.

I can only hope that I can teach my boys that it is in the giving that we receive. That it is not about how many presents are under the tree but what is under the tree. That there are others for whom Christmas is just another day. And that above everything else being with the ones you love is the most important gift of all......


Any thoughts, I'd love to hear them.......
