Keep calm and just keep laughing-

Good Morning on this sunny summer day---- It is Monday, June 1st--a new month--and we have sun and not too bad weather-- sorta warm-- Lopez sand Sushi and I were up around 5am-- The wash machine is done--so is the dryer-- AND-- LOPEZ HAS EVEN DONE HIS BUSINESS--Now you all are saying to yerselves, " She is just bragging because she got up early"----"I HATE GETTING UP AT 5AM"-----like--I REALLY WOULD RATHER BE IN BED------but--- Yu do get a lot more done when you put those feet on the floor--Anyway----

I just drove to the pharmacy and picked up this weeks pill pack--I had to switch to the plastic containers for the pills as the paper ones were ripping--What one has to do eh when we age!-----stuff I never ever did--like take so many pills , I need a pill pack--like make 500 trips to Canadian tire to buy grass seed--then lug it home here--spread top soil to go under the grass seed--and as I lugged the top soil bags to the car, and some man said, "Can I help you with that Dear?"---I just wanted to wrap my arms around him and hug him, but, instead, I replied , "Oh thank you Sir"---I think he was from Heaven for sure!----although he had no wings----

So, "Words I wish I had written"

#1. Push your luck sometimes

#2.Say hello to others

#3.A willing heart sees nothing as impossible.

#4.There's good in everybody

And------ Blasts From The Past

So--- Time to get going here-- for you all also--

You know, it takes a lot of loving to make a home!----Try to remember that when someone makes you cross--and when you are angry, take a 30 minute walk--Let anger die quickly-

-Be willing to shed parts of your previous life--Enjoy the life you are given--Even getting older takers some practice!--Now get going--get off of here and face this day!

The end of your blog today says it all "Enjoy the life you are given!" It is harder some days, but all in all, every day above ground is a good day! Rainy here, so I get a break from yard work! Yay! I'm off to volunteer at the Assisted living facility here in town! And then I am definitely going to try to work on the paperwork that I have let pile up in the office area! Hope you have a great day! Love reading your blogs every day!
