A BOWL FULL OF CHOCOLATE COVERED RAISINS

A well balanced diet is, dark chocolate covered raisins, so good and  "SOOOOO"  good for you, just ask me.  It's a, feel good food also, so today I feel good and I feel well balanced, so that makes me good and balanced.  : )  What a beautiful day, it was, to take our dogs for a walk.  I just love this time of year with everything NEW popping out of the ground and new blossoms on the trees, it's just another "feel good" time.
I picked up a cotton scarf/hat at the cancer center and wanted to make some so Janene made a pattern for me and I made one today.  It turned out pretty good, if I say so myself.  Now I am ready to make one in every color, red, blue, green, yellow, purple, orange, pink, white,  black and white and all colors in between.  That was fun.
I love your comments at the end of my blog, keep them coming.

I have no idea what happened here, but I can't seem to get it corrected.


A lesson in "heart" is my little 10-year-old daughter, Sarah, she was born with a muscle missing in her foot and wears a brace all the time.  She came home one, beautiful, spring day to tell me she had competed in "field day".  That's where they have lots of races and other competitive events.  Because of her leg support, my mind raced as I tried to think of encouragement for my Sarah, things I could say to her about not letting this get her down, but before I could get a word out, she said, "Daddy, I won two of the races!"  I couldn't believe it!  And then Sarah said, "I had an advantage." Ah, I knew it.  I thought she must have been given a head start...some kind of physical advantage.  But again, before I could say anything, she said, "Daddy, I didn't get a head start...my advantage was I had to try harder!"



THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
I believe...
That we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.
That true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distances.
That you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life.
That you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.
That you can keep going long after you think you can't.
That we are responsivle for what we do, no matter how we feel.
That either you control your attitude or it controls you.
That my best friend and I can do anything, or nothing and have the best time.
