Your plans, on the other hand, look remarkably clear.
And fun!
That is so much fun. We have had such a cool season in My Muskoka. I am content and write poetry. I liked yours, too.
I bet you enjoy the world improving it. Happy WW! :)
There is nothing like a good water balloon fight. Great choice for the day.
Now that looks like there will be fun as the video proves! Happy WW
don't think I've ever been in a water balloon fight but it looks like fun...but lots of work to fill them up.
Very pretty photo. Really well done.
Have a great WW.
sounds like a fun time. Happy WW!
Seriously silly, an oxymoron, torn between two things.
E.B. White said a mouthful!
For Summer, I'll take the water balloons, Sandy ;-)

Sandy, that's just perfect. I love how you prepared that video.. and the water balloon photo.. on glass? Fantastic!
I like your plan for the day. It looks like a perfect way to spend a summer day.
Another cool picture. Glad you are finally getting your sunshine.
You obviously improved their day with the filling of the baloons. What fun. The water baloon picture is so colorful.
My old computer wouldn't let me enjoy the u tube viideo but I think the balloon photo is fantastic!
Perfect accompaniment of normally light balloons weighted down in this case. The pastel colors make me vote for enjoying the day, but then the devil in me wants to pop them.
Got a blank spot.
thank you for evoking some great memories of being kid in the summer time! Great post and video my Dear!
I'm going to poke the balloons! ;p
Sandy: All I could think from the photo was someone was going to get wet.
The video was fun. :)
Great concept this week.
I say improve AND enjoy!!! How fun. Happy WW:)
A good water balloon fight is a must from time to time
Nice photo of balloons
I've never been in a balloon fight, it looks so much fun! Thanks for visiting. Happy WW!

hahaha... nice match. so true but when wisdom comes in, we grow.
Fun! I'm pretty good at water balloon fights - watch out. :)
Looks so fun!
Fun photo and I love the verse.

Wheee! That looks like so much fun!
Very lovely image of the balloons, Sandy.
I am jumping from one thing to another, but I think everyone must try to improve the day, or rather, to change the world, in one's own small way, with his strong ideas and behaviours.
I solved the problem. I tried to improve the world for 50 years without success, now I enjoy, lol ! Cute video !
I guess this is enjoying an improved world :)!
Somehow I get the sense that this was all planned ;)
Looks like fun, though.
That looked good fun. Hope everyone enjoyed it!
Doing your bit to improve the world can be fun, too.
wow thats the same thing that we used in our Water Festival here in our country...
we threw water bubbles and spray some water gun...its so fun...
have a great day and happy blogging to you my friend

Now that would bring a marked improvement to my day!
Lovely!!
Oh Heck, enjoy the day. It will be gone tomorrow.
I have not WW so you need not return here. You might want to figure out where Mr. Linky went on the OSI page??
I like your thinking below, I left this comment:
Sandy, you have lovely thoughts of your parents' idle moments. I am not sure I have time for those, we all need to.
You can see I'm way behind. Been thinking too long. I wished.
Thank you for using the prompt, I have enjoyed it a whole lot. :-)
..
What fun Sandy. I love the photograph it's so artistic and great quote. The youtube is temporarily disabled so I'll try that later on.
Can we aim to do both? Great post Sandy!!!
PS: Did you get my email re: OSI prompt coming up?
LOL!!
Nice plan for the day...:)
However, I also like the caption for the day..!
Absolutely wonderful summer recollection!
Ah, memories!
love da balloons.
looks like lots of fun.
Here's my white water rafting adventure.
Happy WW!
You know, those used to be fun to throw around, at least until people started carrying around cell phones.
Summer time fun for sure!
Those balloons have the potential for some serious fun Sandy and the picture is really cool!
Just resent the email...do let me know if it gets there, thanks Sandy
Love the video. Nice touch for Wordless Wednesday!
Scent-sationally yours,
Patty
Beautiful snap and loved the video.
Definitely need to enjoy the day. A lot of fun obviously had here.

Oh my goodness what fun I love water balloons
I missed the video the first time around. Or did you add that later?
Either way, it was makin' me dizzy trying to keep up!
Oh man, it has been like two years since we had a great water balloon fight. I may not be up to it right now, but I am taking note for a few weeks from now. We are due again!
Wonderful quote from EB White and marvelous memories conjured up from looking at all those balloons ;--)
Hugs and blessings,
you left me wondering with this one - appeared like frozen balloons at first
i want both, :D
