Where does the time go?
I hope all of you are well out in blog spot world. Where does the time go? It seems like it is here & people are here & then they are gone. Wow! I had a wonderful conversation with my Aunt Marguerite the other day & we talked about life. She is 87 years young & full of knowledge. We had such a great conversation about how we as people need to roll with the punches in life & know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. My Aunt said if life deals you lemons you should take them & make lemonade. So much wisdom just poured out of her mouth & she said to make the most of my time because life is to short. Also she explained that she has helped everyone that she could help in her life. We need to help those who we can help. When I hung up the phone I felt so blessed to even know her & that she has been in my life. One thing that I won't forget is that she said that she used to spend to much of her time worrying about what other people thought. Don't waste time spend every minute wisely & have no regrets she said, she said that she has no regrets. Wow that is amazing to me, a life with no regrets. Being on the phone with her & writing down every word that came out of her mouth is a day that I will never forget. My Aunt Marguerite-a woman of knowledge, peace, faith, & most of all a woman of prayer. I love her & I love my family. Please everyone don't waste time because we won't get those moments back. I look at my girls now 4 & 1 time goes by so fast. Heres to every minute matters & spending time with our family & friends who mean so much to us. To no regrets!

What are the odds
Wow I haven't been able to write in a while due to moving, computer problems, & the list could go on forever. There is so much to write but I think I'll begin to tell everyone about my day yesterday. It was so cold outside that most sane people were nice & warm in their homes. It was about 19 degrees that felt like 5 degrees when the wind blew. Well I had to pick up my oldest from school & we had to go to the store to pick up a few things. I got the baby & my oldest daughter out of the car & we went into the store got the things that we needed & left. We made it to the car & everyone was buckled in, I was estatic because I was freezing. I turned to the cart to move it out of the way because I was free sailing to get into the car & leave. Guess what? There was something in the cart -the other package of wipes that I didn't pay for. UHHHHH! This is definitely a joke I thought to myself. I thought I am being punk'd or that I was on candid camera or something.
Any other person probably would have done one of these 3 things----
1)left the wipes in the cart & gone home
2)taken the wipes out & left with them without thinking twice about paying
3) taken the wipes home & then when it was time to go back to the store then pay
Well I did 4) took everyone out of the car & went in to pay- ---
Yes as I began to tell my oldest that we had to go back in to pay she was furious telling me that it is just to cold to go back in. I told her that we had no option we were going in to pay for something that we didn't pay for & that is the right thing to do.
With that being said it was cold but my daughter learned a lesson about doing what is right. Hears to going with the flow & making the best of it, also to life lessons that come from situations that arise. Well I will be going to bed soon, I hope everyone has a restful sleep.
