A few great lines from this week

"Maybe if you can't find the right answer, it's because you're asking the wrong question."

(The mother of Camille, one of the detectives in Death in Paradise.)

"I can just share your money!" 

Elena to me when the sewing machine she wanted cost more than the spending money I'd just given her--which was and is true!

"You don't have to cook, you can order out!" 

Kate to me (this morning on the phone)  when I told her I don't have people over for meals because I don't especially like to cook anymore.  This--to me who's never ordered food delivery in my life--was a game changer!

"Let it out, Yenna--just let it out!" 

Elena to me when she did something hilarious (and a little risqué) and the grown up part of me was trying not to laugh.

"It's just tuition."

Carlene to me when I think I've made a costly mistake (like hiring some incompetent people to do a job)....her way of saying 'You learned something from it so it's worth it."

"Don't think of it as an ending but a beginning!"

Victoria--on the subject of re-thnking turning 70 in a creative way!
