Sisters

My friend Helen and her two sisters just spend a week in Reno having a reunion and it sounds like they were kicking up their heels and having the time of their lives. Helen called yesterday to say they had a week of laughter reliving some of the antics they went through as young children. Only one was a winner but shared, so they had lots of play time and some very good eating. Our friend Tani joined them for lunch and I wished I could have been along with them. There were seven of us that found time to share over the years, always a different grouping, but always filled with love and laughter.


As we get older and life changes come about we cannot meet and greet each other as we once did. Several of our group have gone on to what we hope is a better life and endless, as promised. All we can do right now, no matter what age, is to take each day as it comes and make it the best we can. I'm musing about wishing for a repeat of some of the old times, but then, I do have to remember that I enjoyed those times and they are long gone and now it is up to me to make the best of today and each day as it comes. There are places to go, things to do and people to meet along the way.

So today, when you open the door and go outside into your world, look around for someone to greet, some one to hug, someone to share a meal with and if that is not possible, then enjoy your own company and be glad of it and make today the best ever.

I'm off to 'clean' up the mess we made getting ready for the yard sale. Now comes the part where you pick and choose and make up boxes either for the mission, the dog place, or storing for another sale in the future. Maybe there is a piece or two that needs showing off at home and it can be exchanged for one that has become an 'eye-sore' . . . for shame ! Nothing is really an eye sore, we just think we need change . . . and sometimes that gets us into trouble. Need or want . . . that is the question! Hugs to all.
