Summing it Up...
Now, that I'm way on the wrong side of sixty, I feel that being true to self is important. "I yam, what I yam." Kindness and smiles are to be given away. Women are strong. Men are more vulnerable than we believe. Husbands may come and go...but one thing I know for sure is that I will NEVAH live without a corgi or coffee in my life if I can prevent it. Come piles of dog fur or hot water!

Chatty sent me this...
Quotation:
'May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us.'
Women are strong. Some look like marathon runners and are lean and mean. Some are doughy, soft and cuddly (ok, that's me). But, no matter what the outside package looks like, most of all, I believe that we all have a backbone of steel...scars on the insides of our mouth from biting the inside cheek...and a power that keeps us going each and every day, whether we want to face our problems of the moment or not. Sigh...really...truly...women are something else!

My dear girl...why the scars from biting the inside of the cheek? It isn't good for ladies to keep their feelings in. They should shout loudly and carry a big wooden spoon.
Is granddaughter Em there TODAY? Hooray! Know you are on cloud nine in that case. Have fun, ye deserve it!!!
How fun that your girlie is coming for a visit... Your post hit home for me today my friend... Great one!

Have a wonderful visit with adorable Emmy. I find as I get older I have fewer scars on the inside of my cheeks.
Your posts are always so uplifting and make my heart peaceful and happy with the warmth of friendship!
I'm going to have to look you up on facebook!
I hope you are having a wonderful weekend! Linda
Good Morning -
Well, I for one 'get it'. I have scars in my mouth from holding back - deciding which thing is the hill I want to die on or let go of.
Have a great time with Emma and then your mom.
Happy Labor day - hope you don't have any labor today thought.
Have fun with Emma! Love your fellow doughy soft bloggy friend. xo xo -C ^..^
