Friday Coffee Talk
Good morning. Hope you slept good. It's Friday and it is going to be an awesome day. The weekend is about here!! 
Dance with me!! Do ya have big plans? Lucy and I are going on a date thanks to my Secret Pal. WOO HOO!! I'm up and have washed a load of laundry and cooked b'fast for my sweet heart. I cooked her french toast with cinnamon raisin bread. YUMMY!! Sugar Free syrup of course!
Our challenge for today is to be honest with yourself and others. Honesty will take you a long way in this world. If you are a person who lies all the time, people find out and you are not a liked person. If you are honest, people see you as a person of integrity and character. Why lie? People lie for many different reasons. To cover wrong, to be liked, to "try" to get ahead in work, for attention. All of these things and MANY more reasons to lie are WRONG! NO ONE LIKES A LIAR and you are soon caught in your lie/lies. Why not be open and honest? Why not be a person of integrity and character? Why not be the person I KNOW you are?
So, who's up this morning? What cha sipping on? Me? I'm enjoying some awesome Vanilla Nut coffee. Sure is good too! Wanna cup?
Y'all have a wonderful Friday!

I have always stressed this to my kids! There's a saying I can't quite remember, but it's something along the lines of "if you don't lie, you don't have to worry about remembering what you've said"... I didn't get it quite right, but maybe someone here knows the quote I'm referring to? Anyway, it hits the nail on the head. Always being honest, owning up to what you say and do - it's all about integrity. And it feels GOOD to accept responsibility for yourself, even if what you're owning up to doesn't exactly make you proud -
GOOD MESSAGE! Love you two sweethearts....

Good Morning Randall.....
What a wondeful husband you are to our sweet little Lucy...gosh I miss her!!
The challenge is a very special one today. When we lie we are only hurting ourselves. I try to teach this lesson to my children and grandchildren everyday. Being honest is always the best way to be!!
Love and hugs.....connie d

Randy,
Happy Friday morning! I am still working on my sf caramel soy latte yet this morning. I think this is a very important topic so many people start off with a little white lie here or there and they just build and build until before you know it it has gotten out of control. An example of how lieing can affect others....my ex told all of my friends after I was not allowed to return home 2 years ago that I had moved into a convent and there was no way to reach me. Many people had apparently wanted to get in contact with me never attempted after hearing this, and now I am just finally starting to reconnect with them. I am working to forgive this lie, but it is hard to do, although I know I need to I think it will take some time. Also I am learning that a relationship that is 100% open and honest can build and deepen a lot faster than one that is built of half truths and lies.
I hope you and Lucy have fun on your date and that french toast sounds really yummy!
Have a blessed weekend!

"When you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you."
Good morning Randall and Lucy! (I've gotten days/nights reversed again, and not proud of it!) I'd learned in my 20s that lying is a dead-end--once a person lies, then lies more to cover the lies, they eventually forget what the original lie was anyway, and do get busted. Honesty is indeed the BEST policy. I can't even say little white lies--like going along with compliments given to others, of which I honestly do not agree, just don't respond. I've even realized here, yes here, that being open and honest can, and will backfire especially with people who aren't even honest with themselves. Very sad, though I pray for forgiveness of the things which I honestly do not understand. Am exactly four weeks post-PS, still home-bound, though am so grateful I have no trouble keeping myself busy and occupied, that the days go by so fast. Otherwise, doing what the surgeon ordered" walk (can't wait to ditch the walker), do the exercises per physical therapy, rest, elevate the feet, oh, drink water, water, water, and eat three meals daily. Appetite is returning, so am challenged by the proverbial 'comfort' foods, even if s/f- Oh, the special breakfast you fixed Lucy...mmmmm, and I'd had a Kashi Blueberry waffle with s/f syrup. Not bad for 'comfort' food! By the grace of God, I move forward....enjoy your special date night! Hugs and love, Patti
Never let your memories be greater than your dreams.
