"Live each day as if its your last"---don't we all try to do this?--- stuff gets in the way most of my days-- and I forget that I am not here forever----
It is the last day of August--To-morrow is September--Hopefully the hummingbirds will leave soon now--The leaves will fall eventually-- Oh , I can't go there yet---
It has finally cooled down somewhat--I am happy that I survived the summer gardening--and I enjoyed it--It made me think about all the work involved in the summer which I complain about (in my head of course because no-one really cares to hear a complainer)-- Sandra , in her comments in my blogs, said she enjoys all the extra work involved with her outside work--that it gives her something to do, as she lives with her cats---lost her husband fairly recently-- I decided that I should adopt her attitude-"-Live each day as if it's my last"
Well, I found a business which will give foot care to Himself- I am driving him there this afternoon-- That will also give him people to talk to and help him feel a part of the outside world-
So that is my day--well, I am going to garden a bit--Sadie (who is really me)-will be here to dust the study---I shall try to be mindful of my attitude to-day--Lord love a Duck--I shall try to "live" to-day--as if it is the last--What if it really was?-- -

That is my motto, too! Love and Hugs to you!

ReplyDeleteHow I love quotes from famous people. We can learn a lot from them. Then we can pass on the wisdom.
BTW, did you know that, " knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad."
Great that Himself will have help with his feet...and new people to talk to. Socialization is an important part of health as we age.
I try to keep a positive attitude, too. It is important, though, not to 'beat ourselves up' if life gets to us and we lose our good attitude for a time.

I'm glad you found a place to take himself to get his foot care. After my dad died my mom found this lovely community center where she was able to get all kinds of help - and it was in her neighborhood. That place saved me so much time and effort! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteI love that saying. And it really is true that we never know if a day will be out last. Glad you found a foot place to take himself to. Will be good for him to see and talk to others. May make his moods better. It's depressing that summer is pretty much over. Hate winter! Enjoy the rest of your day.
ReplyDeleteHugs! Great attitude, and so good you found that business that does foot care for Himself.
ReplyDeleteHoping the foot care place was good and gentle. Hard to find. I even bought bananas today, ordered for delivery tomorrow, haven’t had any in a long time. Take care.
ReplyDeleteGlad the temps are finally cooling down, yay! I hope the foot place is great. You both should have some foot pampering.
