Every day, I pick one topic I think will be helpful for me and my readers. Often, I pick one photo from the day before for inspiration.
Notice that staff at cardiac rehab is telling me to pick one exercise — either the BioStep or the Stationary Bike. The first day they told me to pick one, I didn’t notice that instruction, and I did both exercises. If I had to pick one thing to say about that, I’d say that doing both exercises didn’t hurt.
With all that’s been happening lately, if I had to pick one book to read, it would probably be this one:
I couldn’t pick one photo of that book cover, so I included all three. That last photo reminds me that I’m trying to pick one seaside location for our next home. I’d like to pick one home that fits our needs for the next decade.
If you had to pick one photo that’s your favorite from this post, which would it be?
If I had to pick one song for this post, I guess it would be this one:
If you had to pick one guy who reminded you of Captain Hook, who would it be?
I can’t pick one person to thank, so thanks to all who helped me create today’s post and to you — of course! — for picking this one blog to visit, here and now.
If I had to pick one person, I’d say Ed Asner.
If I had to pick one person to leave the first comment, it would be you!
i love the candy challenge and would pick bigfoot every time. i’m going to check out that book too, and add it to my must read pile. )
If I had to pick one of your blog posts I love best, Beth, that would be difficult!
⛄️
The melting snowmen drinking cocoa…lovely. Wishing all of us a more sedate 2017, Ann. 💕 💖 💘
I love everything about this comment!
If I had to pick one picture, I would go for that first one of Michael and Aaron. Two handsome dudes! I like Dustin Hoffman as Captain Hook. He played it well. I will have to look for that book in the library. Why not rent a houseboat for awhile, explore the coast a bit? Then you wouldn’t have to pick one spot to live. Enjoy your day.
You picked all your words well and I enjoyed your comment immensely.
I pick this one, of course, but those two gentleman are very handsome too.

I taught him all he knows.

I’m glad you picked both of those photos!
sharing your big
happy, healing heart
awakens joy inside me, Ann!
wishing you continued
steps in beauty
on and off the treadmill 🙂
I’m so glad we’ve picked each other here, my big-hearted, healing, joy-awakening friend.
Hi Ann – I would like to go sit at the end of that pier, with those two little boats, and watch the sun slither down behind the horizon. I also wonder if that plastic red lobster lights up. I hope it does, because that would be super cool.
I’m glad you picked that, SD; I would like to sit at th end of that pier with you. The plastic red lobster DID light up when it was time for us to pick up our order at the Belle Isle Restaurant last night.
How cool is that, a lighting up lobster!!!!
Where on earth did you get Captain Hook? ; )
Thanks for picking that one question, Jan. We saw him last night at the Belle Isle Restaurant in Winthrop, Massachusetts.
Like all the photos can’t pick just one because, well just because, Captain Hook looks good though but you have me thinking what was Captain Hooks name before he had a hook
Let’s see if I can pick one answer to your excellent question, Joanne. Maybe his name was Captain Hand?
All art, including the art of blogging, is about choices–deciding what to include and what to leave out. It’s always fascinating seeing the choices you make.
As for Captain Hook he always reminds me of me. Even when young I could understand his desire to escape the ticking clock.
I’m just incredibly grateful that as the clock ticks, you continue to pick wonderful thoughts to share here.
I like the lobster. I also thought the video was going to be Cover oftheRolling Stone by Dr. hook and the Medicine Show. What a hoot!
I now pick one version of that from YouTube for you!
Oh this was a hoot. I’d never actually SEEN this band, just heard them on the radio back in the dark ages.
I am not too picky, but I like the photos with Aaron in them best
If I had to pick one, I’d pick one with Aaron, too. <3
What a fascinating thought. I guess if I could only look at one photo the rest of my life , then my one pick would be a photo of my family. But if I’m only picking from your photos then I’d pick the boardwalk leading to a seaside cabana.
But a thought just struck me: our frustrations begin when we have no choice, no picks. I suppose if I look at it that way, then any opportunity for choice is a gift.
Thanks for the enlightenment.
What fascinating and enlightening thoughts, Barb! Many thanks for sharing them. <3
Kathy and Michael’s card
Great pick, Derrick!
Captain Hook reminds me of him who shall not be named, the usurper to the highest office in the land. And he can’t sing or dance. Love that Cyril Richard!
