"Your journey has molded you for the greater good. It was exactly what it needed to be. Don't think you've lost time. It took each and every situation you have encountered to bring you to 'the now.' And now is right on time."

Thanksgiving 2011. Hard to believe that another year has gone by. What a year. So many things to be thankful for.

John's job - this has been one of the most thankful things. He was able to travel to Germany, Austria and Hungary for business.

Not me Monday!

Not Me Monday

I did not rejoice at the request to pick up my grandson from school early! Not me. I would never want to take him out of school early to be able to spend the day with him.

I did not complain when the washing machine filled up with water and wouldn't empty itself. And I would never call the repair man when DH could easily take care of it himself. Not me

I did not crawl back into bed after rising to see that it was a rainy day. I never would take advantage of a dreary day to to that. Not me

And I definitely did not look up on the computer City Ordinances regarding neighbors barking, barking, did I say "Barking" dogs to be able to lodge a complaint against said neighbor. NO NO, Not me.

I'm tired today. It's been a long, fun, make my heart happy, tired, learning experience kind of day.

I had the joy of picking up Sarah from VBS. She was in the middle of about 100 kids singing and having fun.

I love this quote:

Chocolate causes certain endocrine glands to secrete hormones that affect your feelings and behavior by making you happy. Therefore, it counteracts depression, in turn reducing the stress of depression. Your stress-free life helps you maintain a youthful disposition, both physically and mentally. So, eat lots of chocolate!
