Welcome to the New Day Cafe! This is an Open Thread.
Monday can be rough; it’s a great day to spend a little virtual time with Dolly Parton, who knows a lot about lifting up.
Some quotable Dolly moments:
“I’m not offended by dumb blonde jokes because I know I’m not dumb. I also know I’m not blonde.”
“So there I was the wind blowing through my hair, and I was too proud to run after it.”
“The bigger the hair, the closer to God.”
“It costs a lot of money to look this cheap.”
“I look just like the girls next door. If you happen to live next door to an amusement park.”
And sometimes the eyes say everything.
Some Dolly tunes to get you going:
Here are a couple of fun pieces on Dolly:
-Not only has Dolly founded a non-profit, Imagination Library, that has donated over 117 million books to underprivileged children, but she’s also donated (ATTN: Mar Tigre) over $200 to rural volunteer fire departments.
-She says she’s written over 3,000 songs.
-She has an upcoming Netflix series about her career in music.
Grab a cup of coffee
and a treat
and share what’s on your mind this morning.
All are welcome to join the fun, the silliness, the conversations. If you don’t know...just ask! Some things really do require a bit of explanation.
There will be a few surprises along the way, all good ones, we hope.
