Focus on the good stuff. I think I’ll hang a sign off the brim of my old hat, so that thought will lead me around all day. Well, when I’m outside anyway. I don’t wear my old beat up hat in the house. But, maybe I should make signs and place them all over the house.
I had a roller coaster day today; some highs and some lows; some fasts and some slows. But as the day comes to its end, I can sit here and say, it was all good. I fret over things more than I should—we all do—but in the overall scheme of things, I have a wonderful life.
I hope you do, too.

Thank you so much for the visit, read, and comment!

Right on! One has to put his own needs on the front burner once in awhile. Mine, thankfully are sated by the kind words and acts of fine folks like you and the guy on the mower. I don’t need much; just a little comment, alittle gesture, and I’m a happy camper.
Thanks for the read and comment! Cheers!
