Taking Time For Granted ...


Today I received some not so great news from the Dr. and I started to feel a little sad. I had to take a step back and have a long conversation with God. 

As I was walking out of the Dr. office, a gentleman with a cane was going out too so I waited for him, so that I could hold the door. As he approached ,he asked if I knew where the Dr.office was located on his paperwork and I did, so I gave him directions and advised him that it's best to set an appointment with them. 

The man paused for a moment, then said, That would be nice, but I don't have much time left and I need to have this done." (with tears in his eyes & a smile on his face) He thanked me for holding the door and wished me well & I did the same and told him that I would keep him in my prayers. 

All too often we take TIME for granted... I learned a long time ago to cherish each moment because you never know if it will be your last. Time is the one thing that we can not control how much or how little we have. What we can control is our use of it. I feel blessed & grateful for the shoes that I walk in daily .... #mycurrent thoughts...

My Current Thoughts ...#5

I'm a little upset at the moment .... For the past two weeks my neighbors dogs have been barking all day & night ... my head is banging and I have seriously been thinking about shaking her dogs BUT I remind myself that I have two reasons and it would be best if I didn't. So I gave her the last warning and if it continues I will file a complaint...(Vent Complete)

Today I made a detour on my way to class & I was in the right place at the right time. I connected with C.J. which was a blessing... (to be continued) 

Law class was pretty interesting today (thinking about law school) 

I can honestly say that I am looking forward to my birthday this year. My second favorite guy in the whole wide world is coming down to see me (insert smile here) My turtles will be with me & I have actually made plans. I usually just buy a cake for my kids and do something for them but this year I'm going to do something for me :-)  When I tell people that I look forward to growing old they look at me sideways( go figure) 

Today I admitted to myself that I am addicted to thrift stores, love to paint, and create new things. I really should have been an art teacher... As you can see my thoughts are scattered .... (I'm done for now)
