Things to be thankful for!


There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it. For example,




1.I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt.


2.When I'm feeling down, I like to whistle. It makes the neighbor's dog that barks all the time run to the end of his chain and gag himself.


3.If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.


4.A penny saved is a government oversight.


5.The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight, because by then your body and your fat are really good friends.


6.The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement.


7.He who hesitates is probably right.


8.If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.


9.The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he can tell when he's really in trouble.


10.How long a minute is depends on what side of the bathroom door you're on.


11.If ignorance is bliss, why aren't more people happy?


12.Most of us go to our grave with our music still inside of us.


13.If Wal-Mart is lowering prices every day, how come nothing is free yet?


14.You may be only one person in the world, but you may also be the world to one person.


15.Some mistakes are too much fun to only make once.


16.Don't cry because it's over: smile because it happened.


17.We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors.......but they all have to learn to live in the same box.


18.Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler.


19.A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.


20.Happiness comes through doors you didn't even know you left open.


21.Once over the hill, you pick up speed.


22.I love cooking with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.


23.If not for STRESS I'd have no energy at all.


24.Whatever hits the fan will not be evenly distributed.


25.Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film.


26.I know God won't give me more than I can handle. I just wish He didn't trust me so much.


27.You don't stop laughing because you grow old. You grow old because you stop laughing.


28.Dogs have owners. Cats have staff.


29.We cannot change the direction of the wind... but we can adjust our sails.


30.If the shoe fits......buy it in every colour (YES!)

If I Had My Life To Live Over

I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending
the earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day.

I would have talked less and listened more.

I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was stained, or the sofa faded.

I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth.

I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer
day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed.

There would have been more "I love you's."

...But mostly, given another shot at life, I would sieze every  minute...
look at it and really see it .... live it...and never give it back.

Stop sweating the small stuff. Don't worry about who doesn't like
you, who has more, or who's doing what. Instead, let's cherish the
relationships we have with those who do love us.

Let's think about what God HAS blessed us with. And what we are
doing each day to promote ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally,
as well as spiritually. Life is too short to let it pass you by. We
only have one shot at this and then it's gone.

I hope you all have a blessed day.

Thanks for sharing that.
