I...Was it your birthday June 28th and I missed it?<br /><br />I'm sorry about your friend. Life is uncertain...that's for sure. What I've noticed is that after a certain age a fall can change someone's life forever. I'm getting paranoid about falling lately. I'm being very careful, but I think that can backfire too.<br /><br />I agree with love everyone you can, each day is a gift, etc., but don't forget to forgive and not hold grudges too. It seems like a lot of people forget that one.Bettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09068151073417372746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34486160.post-9863397631284271452012-07-09T18:43:54.108-04:002012-07-09T18:43:54.108-04:00Sandie, you made me cry - tears of bittersweet emo...Sandie, you made me cry - tears of bittersweet emotion - awh. i so look forward to your posts everyday.

May you be comforted by the knowledge that she will be in a better place and that someday you will see her again.<br /><br />I'd like to have a chef, too! It's a chore lately to think of something different to eat that is healthy every day. And the hot weather means that I don't want to turn the oven on. <br /><br />Take care.

I am going to save that and also share it.<br /><br />Hubby couldn't agree with you more about appreciating every single day. One of his golfing buddies has been in the hospital for three weeks. He was fine one moment, then collapsed with a stroke. <br /><br />I've been looking for a pun about barns to give you on a Monday but they don't seem to be available. I did find a joke that takes place in a barn though:<br /><br />A farmer was milking his cow. He was just starting to get a good rhythm going when a bug flew into the barn and started circling his head. Suddenly, the bug flew into the cow's ear. The farmer didn't think much about it, until the bug squirted out into his bucket. It went in one ear and out the udder.<br /><br /><br />Admit it....you love me! Or at least you tolerate me very well!!!Knittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10194307677813885580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34486160.post-41362169608602288322012-07-09T13:48:20.545-04:002012-07-09T13:48:20.545-04:00I'm so glad you got to have that last dinner w...I'm so glad you got to have that last dinner with Geri.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984802196897920610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34486160.post-90319003404660491832012-07-09T12:58:54.106-04:002012-07-09T12:58:54.106-04:00Just think, how lucky Geri will be soon!
