Thanks, Blake, for the following....I needed this reminder...TODAY!
Broke #9 yesterday while helping Chad move quickly by selling his house in 3 weeks...
Today I'll break some more....but not without feeling 'guilty' after being reminded of these things below....
An Angel says, "Never borrow from the future.
If you worry about what may happen tomorrow
and it doesn't happen, you have worried in vain.
Even if it does happen, you have to worry twice.
1. Pray
2. Go to bed on time.
3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.
4. Say No to projects that won't fit into your time schedule,
or that will compromise your mental health.
5. Delegate tasks to capable others.
6. Simplify and unclutter your life.
7. Less is more. (Although one is often not enough, two are often too many.)
8. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places.
9. Pace yourself.
Spread out big changes and difficult projects over time;
don't lump the hard things all together.
10. Take one day at a time.
11. Separate worries from concerns.
If a situation is a concern,
find out what God would have you do and let go of the anxiety.
If you can't do anything about a situation, forget it.
12. Live within your budget; don't use credit cards for ordinary purchases.
13. Have backups; an extra car key in your wallet,
an extra housekey buried in the garden, extra stamps, etc.
14. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut). This single piece of advice can
prevent an enormous amount of trouble.
15. Do something for the Kid in You everyday.
16. Carry a Bible with you to read while waiting in line.
17. Get enough rest.
18. Eat right.
19. Get organized so everything has its place.
20. Listen to a tape while driving that can help improve your quality of life.
21. Write down thoughts and inspirations.
22. Every day, find time to be alone.
23. Having problems? Talk to God on the spot.
Try to nip small problems in the bud.
Don't wait until it's time to go to bed to try and pray.
24. Make friends with Godly people.
25. Keep a folder of favorite scriptures on hand.
26. Remember that the shortest bridge between despair and hope is
often a good..."Thank you Jesus."
27. Laugh.
28. Laugh some more!
29. Take your work seriously, but not yourself at all.
30. Develop a forgiving attitude (most people are doing the best they can).
31. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it the most.
32. Sit on your ego.
33. Talk less; listen more.
34. Slow down...
35. Remind yourself that you are not the general manager of the universe.
36 . Every night before bed,
think of one thing you're grateful for that
you've never been grateful for before.
GOD HAS A WAY OF TURNING THINGS AROUND FOR YOU.
"If God is for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31)

Get It On....
My public 'musings' can be a real 'pain in the butt'....
But a writer....has to write....or they are not a writer are they?
I have been writing for many years now....most of it just rambling vignettes...
I've written about....family, friends, strangers, boating, spiritual
growth or lack thereof, relationships, laughter, tears and........nonsense.
Years ago I printed these little 'vignettes' and
gave them away...
The internet allows this same kind of 'giving away'
but in another 'format'....aka: blogging
Now I have to decide if I want to continue in this
way or make a change.....
With a new year looming ahead there are
changes taking place in my life and family that causes
me to reflect, analyze, seek, pray and prepare
for ....CHANGE!
As Forrest Gump used to say...
"Life's like a box of chocolates....
you never know what you're 'gonna get'!"
So I say today....Let's get it on!
