If all of us only could...

When I opened the email from Avalon Rose Design today and saw this beautiful creation of theirs I immediately loved it, and gave it a lot of thought. The statement itself by the accomplished Thomas Edison might have been made before he changed our world forever with what he was capable of!  Now in my life I have a bucket list of things I'd like to accomplish before I'm called home, the least of is writing a letter to each member of my family telling them a memory I have of them and how very deep and forever lasting my love is! Then my thoughts turned to time and the length of my list! I'm not naive enough to think I could even begin to do all I want to before I leave this earth and honestly some days I don't feel like accomplishing anything. So, this moment in time I say to the world...I will do what I can and some of it will most assuredly astound me and I'm hoping some of those I love so dearly! ༺♥༻

The Charm of Tenderness

•٠•●♥Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ  I find nothing so endearing as to find someone who is truly tender hearted.  How could one tender hearted soul not be drawn to someone that will cry with you during the sad times and yes, during the happy times! I always carry an extra "hankie" to share!  ༺♥༻

Sleepless in Oklahoma!

(¸.•´♥ღ♥ (¸.•`Yep, it's 4:45AM and I've had about 3 hours sleep!! And the night before I got even less. The total knee replacement (November 19th, 2012) was the best thing I've ever done...I can do things that have eluded me for years during the day, I'm a new woman! But come sundown it hurts so bad it drives me crazy. Heating pad doesn't work, ice doesn't work, Ben-gay doesn't work, Aleve doesn't work! How long does this last? Any of you who've had this surgery, please tell me it's almost OVER! I want to sleep peacefully like this baby! I walk like a youngster, I can kick like a Rockette, but I can't sleep! Woe is me! ༺♥༻
