A wise woman once told me: "No matter who you are or what you do, you'll always have both people who love you, and critics who don't. Don't let the praise go to your head, or the harsh words go to your heart. Stay true to yourself, and the ones who love you most, and you'll be successful in whatever you undertake." Just a thought for your Wednesday. Hope all is well!
Hey how are you doing this Wednesday? Sending you a thought for the day: True wisdom comes to each of us when we realize how little we understand about life, ourselves, and the world around us.
Cancel "voted." I think I just need to go to bed. Why do I write generic silly posts? 1.) Zero time to write custom messages. 2.) Still want to share. 3.) By the time my day is done, I'm lucky to remember my own name. Your exhausted friend, signing off on this chaotic Tuesday.
It's been a LONG day. Cats woke me up before dawn...ran errands, still fighting a migraine. Persephone of the Cast-Iron Stomach ate most of the bite size cookie and cream mini cakes I bought to serve at the self-defense lecture I'm hosting Friday. Don't panic...she's eaten much more toxic things. Like acne cream. Uncovered a treasure at Goodwill - a very old copy of the Tibetan Book of the Dead. The world wide beliefs on life, death and rebirth are always fascinating...looking forward to reading it. Also found a satirical book on the zodiac. And, there's a perfume vendor in my local mall right now, utterly convinced he mixed a custom Nag Champa perfume for Lady Gaga. I'm relatively certain I should just start listing that common error on my resume. Fine...Gaga and I look a lot alike, by pure coincidence. Expect my application for the celebrity look a like call to be filed tomorrow. Stopping by to say hello, and offer hopes your day was awesome. Voted.
So why does my cat think the proper time to stop and groom himself is when he is 6 inches from the door that I'm holding open for him while cold air rushes in? Thanks for taking the time to vote for me!
On this Monday I pass on a wise thought my Irish grandfather told me a long time ago: Don’t ever wrestle with a pig. You’ll both get dirty, but the pig will enjoy it. Certainly applies to life!
Christmas 2011 is finally over! Got the lights off the house and into the attic today, the last two steps. Now I have 10 months of non-Christmas to look forward to!
There's nothing like the warning labels on "idiot proof" objects. One of my stocking stuffer presents for Christmas was a petty bottle of lavender-vanilla hand soap. I set it in my bathroom without a thought. That is, until, after company had come over, and the bottle had gotten turned around. And, there it was, in all caps: THIS IS NOT FOOD. DO NOT EAT. The saddest part? You know that warning is there...because someone's done it! Cue: dismay. Have a great day!
