I was pretty bummed to not be able to go to Pride today because of My surgery two weeks ago, but My smile came from not only being with My mom today for her birthday but both of us won money on scratch tickets :D
I won $20 and she won $30 :thumbsup: |
those 3 little words: "let's do it!" :awww:

:cowboy: Going to a wonderful brunch today with Rosie and her parents and a few WW2 vets at the VFW :cowboy: A hot shower this morning with Dino :dog: :cowboy: Perfect coffee on my front porch talking with my neighbors :tea: :cowboy: Watching the Golf Channel on TV :golf: |
Having breakfast with my parents, and riding all over going to 3 different produce stands, then teaching Dad to service his mower. He had most of it right. It brings me joy to spend time with Mom and Dad, ya never can tell when one of them will be gone. We aren't promised tomorrow.

My daughters excited words when I told her she would be cleaning the bathroom today.
"Are we going to mop the floor too?" "Yes, and scrub the toilet and the tub." "Yay!! I love cleaning." |

just when you least expect it, a big important message is right in front of you...
As many of my friends know...Last Thursday was moving day.
I've had a challenging past few years - including watching Mom go through treatment for incurable Lymphoma, my Dad dieing recently, and hurtful times involving my son - this move was both a VERY good thing and a difficult decision to leave my dear friends and my Mom. Thursday, I busted my ass loading the truck and making sure my car was secured safely to the dolly. Thursday and the past few weeks were extremely taxing on me - mentally and especially physically. Friday, I had a horrible start to my day...but enjoyed a late breakfast with Mom...then finally headed South with a piece of crap truck with car in tow. It's been a very long time since I made such a big move out of state. Even when I think about the challenges & hardships I've faced, I sincerely believe making the decision to move to my new Home is the BEST thing that's happened to me in what feels like a lifetime. Friday when I first started driving, I had so much on my mind that it was too hard to focus just on driving...and I was so distracted with looking out my rear view mirrors at the cars beside me and the trailer that I was towing, that I wasn't REALLY paying attention to what was in front of me. I was constantly watching what was behind me. I had been following the same vehicle towing a large camper for about 30-40 miles, but was just really nervous about my trailer and what was behind me. Suddenly, I realized with a JOLT what was written on the back of that camper... in large bold print, it said "The Best Is Yet To Come!" ... I read it again, still stunned that I hadn't noticed it before... "The BEST Is Yet To Come!" ... that one statement hit me with such a jolt because of all the negative things and stress my mind had been focused on that morning. This really brought me joy because it's confirmation of how I've been feeling lately... it's time to stop focusing on the past and things I have had no control over, and time to start focusing on the BEST things ahead of me. That statement added a bolt to my confidence and made me feel that I can sincerely focus on positive changes. I am still a bit in shock about finding that message on the back of a camper... but it was a really fun, happy message. |

I have had/have a ton of what seems like plain crap on my plate for the last few months. Sometimes it's all very trying. Today I left work with an hour drive ahead of me. I got 10 minutes into it and started crying. I've never been one to feel bad about crying but, this was different. I wasn't thinking of anything that would have started it, I was listening to "Wait, Wait don't tell me" on NPR, a funny show. It was that cry though that brought me joy. I must have needed it. when I was done about 30 minutes later, the joy and gratitude I felt for life around me was noticeable. Maybe I'll cry again tomorrow. *grin*

I got to sit and watch My babygirl play with her stickers and decorate her monitor and keyboard, making them all very pretty.
I love My babygirl, very, very much! :stillheart: :bunchflowers: :love1: |
