Sometimes you have to ADJUST as you go

     When LIFE drops a BOULDER on your LIFE'S JOURNEY that BLOCKS YOUR PATH.... just WALK AROUND IT and STAY ON TRACK.

     When things CHANGE.... You will just have to MAKE the NECESSARY CHANGES in order to STAY ON TRACK.

     The ROLLERCOASTER OF LIFE is full of CHALLENGES that you will have to FIND a way to CONQUER in order to STAY ON TRACK.

    Sometimes you will have to BEND LIKE A PRETZEL to MANEUVER your way through the OBSTACLES just to STAY ON TRACK.

    LIFE is a JOURNEY and YOUR JOURNEY will take MAKING ADJUSTMENTS as you go on your JOURNEY to STAY ON TRACK, THAT'S JUST LIFE.

     Your ABILITY to TWIST AND TURN to STAY ON TRACK will give you the ABILITY to ENJOY EVERYDAY on your LIFE'S JOURNEY while you are LIVING IT.

     When the GOING GETS TOUGH you will just have to DIG DOWN DEEP INSIDE YOURSELF to get through the TOUGH TIMES.

     I WISH I could tell you that LIFE WAS EASY but the TRUTH IS that IT ISN'T.

     There will be MOMENTS when you will have to face TOUGH TIMES, THAT'S JUST LIFE.

      But I can tell you that to ENJOY LIFE you have to ENJOY IT while you are LIVING IT because WE ONLY HAVE THE TIME WE HAVE to ENJOY EVERY MOMENT WE DO HAVE.

Do you honestly THINK they even REMEMBER?

     Do you really THINK that they even REMEMBER the NEGATIVE words that they said to you?

     I have seen people REMAIN IMMOBILIZED for  YEARS because someone said something HURTFUL to them YEARS AGO.

     They need to take those NEGATIVE THOUGHTS and JUST FLUSH IT out of their MIND and get moving forward.

     I GUARANTEE you that those who have HURT you DON'T EVEN REMEMBER saying it and YOU DEFINITELY SHOULDN'T keep it FRESH ON YOUR MIND.

    Don't let NEGATIVE EXPERIENCES from your past STINK UP your TODAYS..... JUST FLUSH IT out of your mind.

     If you want PEACE OF MIND you have to take all the NEGATIVE CRAP that HAPPENS while you are on your LIFE'S JOURNEY and.....JUST FLUSH IT out of your mind so PEACE OF MIND has ROOM to GET IN. 

    EVERYONE of us ONLY have the TIME we have which is WHY we ALL need to ENJOY EVERY MOMENT of the TIME we have.

Not everyone likes the COLOR Blue but you can still like the COLOR BLUE

     You can still ENJOY going OUT TO EAT with your friend that is a VEGETARIAN.... just DON'T try to make them eat any MEAT.

     You might not have CHOSEN to BUY a BLUE CAR....but you can still ENJOY RIDING around with your FRIEND in THEIR new BLUE CAR.

    You may CHOOSE to CELEBRATE things that other people CHOOSE NOT to CELEBRATE, it's YOUR CHOICE.

    INSTEAD of getting ANGRY because someone THINKS DIFFERENTLY than YOU DO.... BE THANKFUL that EVERYONE has the RIGHT to THINK DIFFERENTLY.

    If you want to have the FREEDOM to BE YOU.....THEN.....You have to RESPECT that everyone has the FREEDOM to BE THEMSELVES.

    In the GOOD OLD DAYS we didn't FIGHT with EACH OTHER just because we had a DIFFERENCE IN OPINIONS....we just ENJOYED spending time with EACH OTHER.

   Nowadays we have SO MANY SUBJECTS that we CAN'T TALK ABOUT because of OUR DIFFERENCES IN OPINIONS that there are a lot of MOMENTS OF AWKWARD SILENCE.

     If we were ALL THE SAME..... LIFE would be pretty BORING.

BELIEVING it is TRUE makes it TRUE TO YOU

    If you BELIEVE it is TRUE.... then you will REACT to it AS IF it is TRUE.

    Your THOUGHTS are the REALITY that you will LIVE IN whether it is TRUE REALITY OR NOT.

    If you can CHANGE YOUR THOUGHTS......then you can CHANGE YOUR REALITY.

    Which is WHY you need to get ALL the TRUE FACTS because if you BELIEVE it is TRUE......then to you it is TRUE 

     LIFE for you is determined by HOW YOU LOOK AT IT.

    If you see the GLASS HALF FULL......then you can QUENCH YOUR THIRST with YOUR HALF FULL GLASS.

   JUST remind yourself that PETER PAN could only FLY if he THOUGHT HAPPY THOUGHTS.

   CHANGE YOUR THOUGHTS and you will CHANGE YOUR REALITY.

Thank a Veteran every time you get to make a CHOICE

    Today we are FREE TO CHOOSE because our VETERANS MADE A CHOICE to FIGHT FOR OUR FREEDOM.

    EVERY DAY that you get to CHOOSE what is best for you and your family is a day  that you should thank a Veteran for giving you that RIGHT TO CHOOSE.

    TODAY we set aside to THANK OUR VETERANS but every day we owe OUR VETERANS THANKS for protecting our RIGHTS TO BE FREE TO CHOOSE.

    WE all KNOW that our FREEDOM WAS NOT FREE, it IS only possible because OUR VETERANS DEDICATED their lives to FIGHTING FOR OUR FREEDOM.

    NOW it is with all my heart that I am saying THANK YOU TO EVERY VETERAN for making FREEDOM POSSIBLE! 

     If you can please donate to TUNNEL TO TOWERS which helps OUR VETERANS have what they need to THANK THEM for their sacrifices to give us OUR FREEDOM.

I have decided it will be a TABLETOP MINI CHRISTMAS TREE this year

     After much debate we have decided to put a MINI CHRISTMAS TREE on top of the desk.

    Our NEW PUPPY made that an OBVIOUS DECISION today when he ate several movie cases and he shredded an entire magazine all within the 30 minutes we were gone.

    I had recently bought some plastic containers with lids on clearance to keep the WRAPPED CHRISTMAS PRESENTS SAFE.

    I am excited about the entire family playing CHRISTMAS GAMES geared so anyone from age 2 to OLD can ENJOY.

    I can not wait to HEAR the LAUGHTER and to FEEL the FUN COMPETITIVE VIBES that will fill the room.

    CHRISTMAS isn't about SPENDING MONEY BUYING GIFTS it's about SPENDING TIME ENJOYING EACH OTHERS COMPANY.

    OUR FAMILY TRADITIONS may be different but they are all the same because they are SIMPLY anything that you do TOGETHER AS A FAMILY.

Cooking a THANKSGIVING FEAST takes a lot of PLANNING

     Now that Halloween is behind us it's TIME to START PLANNING what you are going to have for your THANKSGIVING FEAST.

    The COST OF GROCERIES may be the BIGGEST FACTOR on what you can AFFORD to have not what you WOULD HAVE if you COULD AFFORD IT.

    So I will make a LIST and LET the SALES at the STORES DICTATE just what will STAY ON THAT LIST.

    Obviously I will have to buy a TURKEY because it WOULDN'T be THANKSGIVING WITHOUT A TURKEY.

     I have a FEW STAPLE ITEMS in my PANTRY ALREADY and TOMORROW I will START LOOKING for the SALES at the GROCERY STORES.

     LUCKILY the HURRICANE SEASON is ending and the HURRICANE SUPPLIES can now be EATEN and that will SAVE on my GROCERY BILLS from now until THANKSGIVING.

     DON'T HESITATE when your Guest ask if they can BRING ANYTHING you SAY YES THIS YEAR.

     TOGETHER our THANKSGIVING FEAST will be AWESOME LIKE ALWAYS and LIKE ALWAYS I will need a NAP after eating.

     Instead of five DESSERTS I have ALREADY DECIDED that THREE DESSERTS is PERFECTLY GOOD after I FEAST ON THANKSGIVING DINNER.

    IT DOESN'T MEAN that we WON'T have a GIANT THANKSGIVING FEAST it just means LESS LEFTOVERS.
