Seen, Heard and Thought

• When taking my 90 year old dad to get a haircut: 
  Him:  I remember only paying 25¢ for a haircut. 
  Me: How much do you pay now? 
  Him: Ten dollars – and that’s with the senior discount! Regular people have to pay twelve.
  
  

• I do not want to clean out my inbox.  It is overflowing and it must be done but I don’t want to do it.
  
  

• Why do some people love to exercise and I have to use brute force to get myself out the door?  Why can’t I have just a teensy bit of that whatever-it-is?  

• I’m reading a good book – ‘Peace Like A River’ by Leif Enger.   Wonderful characters.  Excellent writing.  Great story.  How often do you find all three of those??
  
  
• I am detecting a theme here and it’s not pretty.
  
  
• My kids keep getting older.  Do yours?  My youngest just turned 21, my middle turns 23 next week and my oldest is 25.  This is ridiculous.
  

• Today would have been my mom’s 84th birthday.  I was getting dressed this morning, thanking God for her love for me and for her family.  Happy Birthday Mom!  I love you.

• I already have more than enough flowers in the yard – in pots and in the ground.  But I couldn’t pass up these beauties today. 
  
  
  
  
  
  I am a prodigal when it comes to bedding plants.  I’ve never had New Guinea impatiens.  Now I need to find a spot where they’ll get only morning sun.

• And now I must leave you.  I have work to do.
