I have been away a couple of days doing my duties! Sorta got behind and still am not finished.

“Don’t quit” has a lot of meaning for me. After my hubby passed away, I thought the world had ended...felt like everything was ‘just over’ and I would never be happy again. I have a best friend from our early school days (8th grade) and she lives about 100 miles away. She drove over a couple of months after he passed away and she brought me that little plaque with “Don’t Quit” and I placed it on the left of my cooktop so it could remind me everyday to keep fighting. It is still there and I have learned “we can be happy again”. Its amazing how God just helps us heal so we can laugh and be normal again. Those wonderful memories are embedded in our mind for always and forever, but we do learn life is worthwhile! Thank ya’ll for reminding me again.

Let’s Talk!

Come in and let your mind run free. We’ll talk of many things.
Of shoes, and ships, or cabbages, whatever discussion brings.
You’ll note we have a patriotic flair, we thank our men who serve,
And thank the ladies who are out there too. We marvel at their nerve.

Nature gets our attention too, both ours and that around,
We keep our eyes up to the skies, with both feet on the ground.
We like to stretch our Dreamworld, so it can hold the most,
But first let’s welcome all our guests, and Thank You to the host!

I found that Deadhead post on a 2003 thread and felt it was worth posting again.

I’m happy that it helped to bring you contentment.
