Happy Easter Everyone! – 2015

Wikipedia

Easter is a special time of year for many people. Christians celebrate the Resurrection of Christ. Others, who observe this occasion, spend time with loved ones and celebrate the coming of spring. It’s a time of year to look at things with fresh and hopeful eyes.

Easter isn’t just for Christians and I think it’s great. I look forward to seeing people of all backgrounds decorating, hiding eggs, and dressing in bright colors. It’s simply a lovely time of the year. So, to anyone reading this post today, or some time down the road, Happy Easter to you and welcome to spring.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! – 2015

Wikipedia

I like the meaning or idea behind St. Patrick’s Day and though I’m not Irish or Catholic I do celebrate it. It’s a fun cultural experience that helps me remain open-minded and, unlike many others on this day, I do not go out and get drunk because I can.

I’m not going to go on a tangent about controversy today. Click the image up top if you want to know some of the history, but do some real research if you care. So with that, I say…

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Everything changes, but I stay the same!

In case you hadn’t noticed, The ToiBox of Words has had a makeover. It’s not something I wanted to do or was looking forward to doing. The thing is, I’ve been using a very old and simple WordPress theme for this site and blog for a long time because I liked it. I liked the simple plain look of it, but it came with lots of problems. This weekend was the final straw that broke the camel’s back. So, now I have an all new look that I don’t love, but am very pleased with; to top it all off, this new format is mobile responsive. So there, Google search.

I will miss the old look though. 🙁
