JUST FOR TODAY
As I go through some "troubles" in my own life, I've worked out this "formula" to help me be a useful and happy person. See if it doesn't work for you! JUST FOR TODAY: I will try to live through this day only, and not tackle my whole life problem at once. JUST FOR TODAY: I will be happy. I will assume to be true what Abraham Lincoln said: "Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be". JUST FOR TODAY: I will try to strengthen my mind. I will study. I will learn something useful. I will read something that requires effort, thought, and concentration. JUST FOR TODAY: I will adjust myself to what is, and not try to adjust everything to my own desires. JUST FOR TODAY: I will exercise my soul in three ways: I will do somebody a good turn, and not get found out. I will do at least two things I don't want to do just for exercise. I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt; they may be hurt, but today I will not show it. JUST FOR TODAY: I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, dress becomingly, talk low, act courteously, criticize not one bit, not find fault with anything, and not try to improve or regulate anybody but myself. JUST FOR TODAY: I will have a program. I may not follow it exactly, but I will have lt. I will save myself from two pests: hurry and indecision. JUST FOR TODAY: I will have a quiet half hour all by myself. During this half hour, I will try and get a better perspective of my life. JUST FOR TODAY: I will be unafraid. Especially I will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful, and to believe that as I give to the world, so the world will give back to me. CAPT Benny Hornsby, CHC, USN (Ret)

I hope we get it, too, though my yard doesn’t need it. It’s been way too hot to mow and it’s VERY shaggy right now. LOL But now is when the corn needs rain BIG time, and all other plant life needs it too. It’s been a hot, dry week.
OOOO! I hear thunder!! Time to step out with the camera to see if there’s any good lightning!
Sleep well. Be kind to your alarm in the morning. LOL

A very pleasant good Sunday morning to everyone here at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.
It's day #2 of healing from the Inguina Hernia Correction on Friday. So far so good, the pills seem to be working. Can't drive due to the pills but should be able to resume and when that happens I will go back to the vet and reunite with Gizmo and we may do some in house stuff.
How's everyone doing this morning?

Glad your recuperation seems to be going well.
It’ll be great when you finish the pills and can go get Gizmo from the vet. I know you miss your lil buddy, and he misses you.

Good afternoon, E...((HUGS))...and a Blessed Lord’s Day.
Glad healing is going well and you and Gizmo will be reunited soon. Glad he is with his best bud.
Is your sis still with you, or has she gone home? Hope she made you some good stuff to eat (as she always does).
Keep healing.
