NO MORE PEP TALKS FOLKS 10/8/15

Well, I decided that I do not like doing a pep talk everyday because I think I need to do it. I just want to give a pep talk when I feel like giving a pep talk. I am not a coach, but I guess it is kind of the same thing. When I feel like I am getting a sign to post a pep talk, I will. Meanwhile, I will just keep being me and doing whatever sounds good or looks good. I hope you all have plans for a fun weekend. I need a break, so I am going with my hubby to Dana Point for the weekend. I have heard many nice things about it. I plan on just relaxing and doing what ever I feel like doing. Sounds good to me right now. So, I will be seeing you all in a few days. Stay healthy and have fun.

A Woman’s Fairy Tale

I had to share this that a friend spent to me…too funny!

Once upon a time, in a land far away, A beautiful, independent, self assured princess, happened upon a frog as she sat contemplating ecological issues on the shores of an unpolluted pond in a verdant meadow near her castle. The frog hopped into the Princess’ lap and said: ” Elegant Lady, I was once a handsome Prince, until an evil witch cast a spell upon me. One kiss from you, however, and I will turn back into the dapper, young Prince that I am and then, my sweet, we can marry and setup housekeeping in yon castle with my Mother, where you can prepare my meals, clean my clothes, bear my children, and forever feel grateful and happy doing so.” That night, on a repast of lightly sauteed frogs legs seasoned in a white wine and onion cream sauce, she chuckled to herself and thought: I don’t think so honey!

Believe in Yourself

There are many things in this life that can upset you. There are also many things in this life that can make you smile. Do your best to feel blessed with all you have. Do your best to make your life the way you want it. Do your best to realize that things should not be taken for granted. Reach out. There are those who will ignore you. There are many who will embrace you. Hold on to your faith and your hopes.

The wedding was a success!

I am happy to report that everything went well with my friends wedding. Everyone was happy and smiling! The weather in Palm Springs was 119 degrees! I thought I would faint. I do not know how people can live comfortably in such weather. After a while, you kind of get to where it really does not bother you. Needless to say, I drank a lot of water. The country club did a fantastic job with the catering. The music was getting me to dance and be silly! I was very happy for my friend Pam. I have known her since high school. Her husband Anthony was very nice. It was the first time meeting him. 🙂

Marriage takes a commitment. It takes humor. It takes caring and trust. You should NEVER take your spouse for granted. I wish Pam and Anthony all the best!

Oh, my dress worked out perfectly. The challenge was the wind. My dress was flying all over the place!

Have a great week.

Unconditional caring and support

Hours of listening and looking with kind eyes

Moments of laughter to make things seem less miserable

Words spoken from the heart to help heal one back to health

Never passing judgment or expressing disgust

Never looking at the time to indicate boredom

I speak to you from my heart…poem

I speak to you from my heart

I take action from within my soul

I move in the direction I feel

I am guided by my thoughts

My heart reaches out to all

You have only to express your love

Riches and objects speak a language

I care not to understand

Be honest

Be sincere

Be appreciative

Some of us……..poem

Some of us are able and strong

Some of us are weak

Some of us can tolerate the misery

Some of us shed tears every night

Some of us can pretend that the world is safe

Some of us live the lie

Some of us are consumed with arrogance

Some of us are free to share

Some of you will understand these words

Some of you will not even care
