Good am, How are ya'll doing? GREAT I hope! How was your Wednesday? Mine was jam packed once again. I'm diggin' this whole on the go, go, go deal although I must admit I was a sleepy gal at the ripe ole time of 10 pm. (Sad!!!) Anyhow, it was a gorgeous day and I got some chores and To Do List items accomplished. Then headed out for lunch. Spent the afternoon with a friend for their birthday and then got home early pm and headed for the bowling alley. My sis & her bf and his family bowl on a league. It was great to me new folks and get in some adult time. Might start going to socialize and such. Was invited out for karaoke and such but couldn't seem to find my energy. Crashed pretty good!!! What's on the books for today? Its going to be a slow day for me I think. I'll still get out and walk as I'm really needing my nature time but will do a couple miles and I've got some work to get done then I'm going to relax in the pm. I might try to catch up on some shut eye early this pm. I hope everyone has a great Thursday!  I'm sharing something my MIL sent me. It rings VERY true and I'm posting it here as I think ya'll are "keepers!"  Their marriage was good, their dreams focused. Their best friends lived barely a wave away. I can see them now, Dad in trousers, tee shirt and a hat and Mom in a house dress, lawn mower in one hand, and dish-towel in the other. It was the time for fixing things. A curtain rod, the kitchen radio, screen door, th e oven door, the hem in a dress. Things we keep. It was a way of life, and sometimes it made me crazy. All that re-fixing, eating, renewing, I wanted just once to be wasteful. Waste meant affluence. Throwing things away meant you knew there'd always be more. But then my mother died, and on that clear summer's night, in the warmth of the hospital room, I was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't any more. Sometimes, what we care about most gets all used up and goes away...never to return. So... While we have it... it's best we love it... And care for it.... And fix it when it's broken.... And heal it when it's sick. This is true... For marriage.... And old cars.... And children with bad report cards..... Dogs and cats with bad hips.... And aging parents.... And grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it. Some things we keep. Like a best friend that moved away or a classmate we grew up with. There are just some things that make life important, like people we know who are special.... And so, we keep them close! I received this from someone who thinks I am a 'keeper', so I've sent it to the people I think of in the same way... Now it's your turn to send this to those people that are "keepers" in your life. Send it back to the person that sent it to you if they too are a keeper. Good friends are like stars.... You don't always see them, but you know they are always there.
