Good Morning and Welcome to Thursday the 3rd day of December, 2015.
Wow, it is crazy, awesome, fantastic, wonderful, divine, nice, great, WEATHER here in Edmonton.
This morning I did not need gloves but I wore my mini ones because my hands dry out easy.
SO Beautiful ….. I am so GRATEFUL for this wonderful WARM weather.
Yesterday it was melting ….. and what day is it again? Smiling …..
Do you ever have a moment that you feel “OH WOE IS ME” and that moment turns minutes seconds and into minutes and into hours?
We all have them?
Funny how out of the blue then you can receive an email or see a sign and all of a sudden you are reeled back into reality.
Thinking all the while …. “I AM VERY BLESSED.”
It would seem that any time I find myself “HAVING A PITY PARTY FOR ONE” .…. reality brings me back and I realize how super lucky I am.
I have my own house …. more room than I actually need but suits me and Alvin all the same.
I am in good health as is Alvin ….
I have a daughter whom I treasure more than life ….
I have my constant companion her little brother Alvin whom I treasure just as much ….
I have an awesome, amazing good-hearted, super smart son-in-law and GRAND-PUPPIES. (sounds better than GRAND-DOGS)
I work in an office that always gives me a reality check.
I have friends and family all over the world who are simply the best.
I have a sister who is not just a sister but a dear friend.
I have so much and more.
So on this Thursday ….. I am just thinking that the possibilities are endless.
I have so much and can do pretty much whatever I choose.
Just have to choose.
Make the list and start working toward those dreams.
We just have to remember to live our lives and not let our lives live us, make sense.
There will always be those moments when you just cannot rise to the occasion.
That is okay.
Have your pity party and then rise up and carry on.
Today is TERRIFIC THURSDAY …..
We are in the countdown to Christmas.
Last night wrote more Christmas cards and will mail more today and then finish the ones to be mailed, tonight and mail tomorrow.
This weekend I get to BAKE.
I love to bake ….. “sugar cookies” …… “chocolate macaroons” …… “chocolate fudge” …… maybe a couple more items.
YAY …
Well it is time to go and finish getting ready to go to the office.
Have a splendid day…..
You are simply the best and do not forget this…..
You can climb to the top and wave the flag ….
I know you can.
Special Hello to: my friends back in Regina and in Saskatchewan who are the best ….. thanks guys.
Always, Carol and Alvin
