				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I&#8217;m mourning the loss of a great lady.  Margaret Thatcher was a leader ahead of her times.  She&#8217;s revered by women across the world.  Her not-only-can-do-but-<em>shall</em>-do attitude was one of the things that made her a great leader.  She was, and remains, one of <em>my favorite things</em>. I hope you&#8217;ll enjoy this poem from A Word A Day! because it eloquently expresses what many of us are thinking today&#8230;about a lady of iron.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m so excited!  My Lovely Daughter (MLD) announced her engagement last Saturday.  I know she doesn&#8217;t want to make a big thing about it&#8230;but I, in my role as Mother of the Bride (MoB), am probably three times more excited about planning her wedding than anyone else, including my daughter and her groom.  They want a wedding without a lot of fanfare, so it&#8217;ll probably be fairly small.  However, <strong><em>I</em></strong> (on the other hand) am free to plan a <em>virtual wedding </em>that could eclipse the British (sadly) marriage of Diana and Charles.  I promise not to go totally wild&#8230;&#8230;maybe just moderately wild.</p>
<p>As I travel through the ether to find only the most perfect things for her <em>virtual</em> wedding, even (perhaps) some that will actually be included in her planning, I&#8217;ll share it all with you, Dear Reader,  a few of&#8230;My Favorite Things.</p>
<p>PS ~~ I&#8217;ve included acronyms for my daughter and me, but I will probably continue spell them out because I like the way they look as I type them&#8230;  ;o)</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ta Da!  I <em>finally</em> finished redecorating!  Now I can focus on my <em>Quest-for-the-best-of-the-best</em> to share with you, <em>D</em>ear <em>R</em>eader&#8230;I&#8217;ll use <em>DR</em>&#8211;from now on, because it isn&#8217;t as saccharine and definitely more palatable!</p>
<p>Speaking of palatable&#8230;Do you ever wish you could do more here in WP-Land?  <em>I</em> wish there were more options to convey my three EEEs&#8211;Enthusiasm, Exuberance and/or Emotion.  I like having the option to highlight and use colored text for emphasis, but in WP-land, I&#8217;m limited to <strong>Bold</strong> and/or <em>Italic</em>, which don&#8217;t always truly reflect what I want to convey.  I see this as an opportunity to learn more about using WP and maximizing what I find&#8211;on my <em>Quest</em>.  You can be my jury and let me know if I&#8217;ve succeeded.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll leave you with this bit of fluff from Alexander McQueen Fall 2012:</p>
<p><a href="http://suzysomethingthinksoutloud.com/2013/03/13/yaaaaaay/pink-feathers-and-fuzz-2/" rel="attachment wp-att-992"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-992" alt="Pink feathers and fuzz" src="http://suzysomething.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/pink-feathers-and-fuzz1.png?w=259&#038;h=417" width="259" height="417" /></a></p>
<p>Sheesh, I hope that isn&#8217;t as fuzzy on your side as it seems from my side of the screen (the photo, not the garment&#8212;I can&#8217;t tell if it&#8217;s a coat or a gown!)  I promise to be more inspired for my next post.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be back<em> after a word from our sponsor</em>&#8230;[see me, tongue in cheek, reminiscing]  ;o)</p>

<p>We're only a handful of days away from St. Patrick's Day! As a kid, I loved this holiday. Mostly because I loved pinching my brothers when they forgot to wear green. I was devious, too. I always wore green, but it was hidden so that I could pinch twice. As a grown-up, pinching is a little less acceptable, unless it's my brothers (beware!).</p>

Or even <em>this</em> week.  Now, I&#8217;m hoping for sometime next month!  Not all is lost, however.  When I&#8217;m not sleeping, I&#8217;ve been able to use my laptop to carry me to distant places (away from the flu) and sparkling beaches, and let it lead me to wonderful things I can share with you when I am, as my son used to say, &#8220;&#8230;awww bettah.&#8221;  (babytalk&#8211;Geesh&#8211;I think I&#8217;ll go find the thermometer.  I must be feverish!)</p>
