They caught me offguard. I remember them giving it to me, me thinking it was the ugliest picture I'd ever seen in my entire born days, and stuffing it in a drawer somewhere. I came across it one day and now it graces my family room wall! Now I think it just might be one of the best pictures ever taken of me.RhettaRichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06543165658213745085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12489192.post-1139930389968682362006-02-14T07:19:00.000-08:002006-02-14T07:19:00.000-08:00Ms. Holly is right!

If it can't kill ya, sit back and relax with your favorite cuppa or take a brisk walk and ponder your possible reactions.RhettaRichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06543165658213745085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12489192.post-1139929299167193402006-02-14T07:01:00.000-08:002006-02-14T07:01:00.000-08:00I like the "life is like a circle" idea - much bet...I like the "life is like a circle" idea - much better than the "box of chocolates" bullshit.<BR/><BR/>A wise man once told me that you'd better be sure to make your own joy, because the crap will find you all by itself. at least you'll have guaranteed some good stuff by making it happen yourself. Anything else is gravy.<BR/><BR/>So, I think the glass of wine and some time spent doing something you like that will also make someone else happy is double positive karma.<BR/><BR/>Reminds me of the Bruce Springstein song, "Glory Days." We don't always know what our glory days are - what we think is bad, might look very different in hindsight.Mrs. Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05343472637614113892noreply@blogger.com
