REALLY DO ENJOY

These days when I start work at noon. It's nice having the morning at home to do whatever. My "whatever" this morning included a 3 mile bike ride on the recumbent bike and one mile on the treadmill while being "plugged" into the ipod! I absolutely love that thing, think it has got to be the best thing ever invented. Speaking of the ipod, our little granddaughter, Rissy, told me the other day that I can get her one for her birthday. She was very cute about it and very serious about it, she calls me Grandma Peggi and tells me I can buy her an ipod. She will be getting one for her birthday in May.

Wow! Spring starts tonight according to the news I just heard. never even realised it was here! How exciting is that! Think we are all more than ready for it.

Enjoy the day everyone!

In Memory

I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean.
She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.
Then someone at my side says: “There, she is gone!””Gone where?”Gone from my sight.
That is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side and she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port.
Her diminished size is in me, not in her. And just at the moment when someone at my side says: “There, she is gone!” there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices ready to take up the glad shout: ‘Here she comes!”
And that is dying.
Henry Van Dyke

Don't Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will. When the road you're trudging seems all uphill. When funds are low and the debts are high. And you want to smile, but you have to sigh. When care is pressing you down a bit. Rest, if you must, but don't you quit Life is queer with its twists and turns. As everyone of us sometimes learns. And many a failure turns about When he might have won had he stuck it out: Don't give up though the pace seems slow- you may succeed with another blow. Success is failure turned inside out- The silver tint of the clouds of doubt. And you never can tell how close you are. It may be near when it seems so far: So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit- It's when things seem worst that you must not QUIT Author unknown
