Thoughtful Thursday



Thought for the Day:


Life is not what it's supposed to be. It's what it is.
The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.

I was at my dad's house at a baby shower for my cousin Heather from Chicago. For some silly reason, my kids found this wig and they were passing it around and so I had my turn! Nice Hair! Say Cheese! Or should that be Cheesy!! Ok Becky, I did it!! I think I should stick to Wordless Wednesday!!!!!

Tag you are it.......Jennifer Kristan Becky Dancin Queen and Angel Friend!!

SITS is giving away some great prizes during their first ever Blogathon, a word that Webster will have to add to their list now. Lots of BLOG words I guess should be added. For me, it is Going Deep. That is when I get into one blog, then click another, then another, then another.......you get the picture. Well, I get so "deep" that I have so many tabs at the top of my screen I can't see them all. So I close them all and start over! Well anyway.....

I am adding this post so I can now qualify for a prize....how about you???

Not Me Monday

Another NOT ME MONDAY.....

I did not just open the door for the pest control guy in my PJ's!

I did not get mad because the flowers on my porch are wilted after being out of town.

I am not grumpy and need coffee.

I am not late for bible study because I am blogging!

Gotta Go, but.....

I do have this....funny, timing is great! Thanks MJ!!

This is my Daddy





John!!!! Capt!!!! Daddy!!!!

On Thursday last week he was diagnosed with Lung Cancer and I am very sad. I will fly home to visit him this weekend. In the mean time, I wanted to share these photos. I love him very much.

Not me Monday

Here goes.......

I am not blogging to avoid housework and laundry.

I was not avoiding people on the phone last night because I could not talk about my dad yet.

I did not have a pedicure and manicure with my dear friend and love EVERY MINUTE of it!!!!

I did not have a childlike moment and buy a pink and white bike with a bell and basket!!!! (photos coming)

I did not have a completely relaxing four days where nothing got done around the house.

I did not get angry at my girls for once again bossing each other around and "parenting" for me!

I am not still in my pj's sitting looking at blog after blog after blog!

P.S. added at 8:00pm......I did not eat a Heath bar at Kroger in the checkout line and did not have a milky way just now!

My cat did not just go to the bathroom on the carpet....she may die!

Happy NOT ME MONDAY!
