Here & Gone


A short one today; simply a plea to make good use of your time & health.  The godsons (8 & newly-13) left today after a week with us.  We're sad but too wore-out to be REAL sad yet.  I was disappointed to not be able to DO more with them, to go on most of the outings they had, but thankful for those (like Janet, GranAnn & Alexa) that were & helped the boys have fun.

If there are people you want or need to spend time with, if there are certain things you've not had time for...prioritize.  My healthy times were filled with so much activity that now seems very unimportant & unmemorable.  Go do the stuff worth remembering NOW, dang it, while you FEEL like it!  I promise you, on your deathbed you will not take comfort in that big book of Sudoku you almost finished or even that all your comic books are bagged & boarded.

Plan today to do the most important things.  The other stuff will always fit whatever time's left over.

  1. Wasn't the same without you. You would have loved seeing GranAnn grab a tube and head down the mega splash twister slide! She was screaming so loud Alexa and Daphne heard her at the wave pool!!

  2. I enjoyed the time spent in your home where I could really feel the love, not only between you two but the strong bond you have with Liam and Connor and, really, everyone who came in your home! Thank you for letting me share some of this special time. Craig is absolutely right - enjoy each day for what it brings to you and you bring to it!

    As far as the screaming on the Upsurge, me thinks ya'll doth exaggerate!
