IT IS OVER

I MADE IT----I blogged for one month straight---YES—I am so proud of myself—it has been two years since I have done that—and I am celebrating my victory!!!!

I am really glad I did it---just to see if I could start and finish something—that seems to be a task I always have to work hard at.
Anyway----This weekend we are going to put up the lights on the big window—but as promised –here is an instagram pic of our Xmas Tree…

Truly it looks so much better in person but I like how the lights are sparkled in this pic.
Well I don’t know if I mentioned this—but Allen and my daughter were in an accident  a couple of months ago. A college student ran a red light and hit them broadside at 50 miles an hour…Allen hit his head—but my daughter’s neck and back got “wrenched” (for lack of a better term)…well she has been going to physical therapy and it turns out that now they suspect she has more then one herniated discs…SO NOT GOOD…She gets on her feet for more then 5 minutes and cries in pain…so if the MRI confirms this—she will be getting a lawyer…because then other more serious treatments will be needed. It is funny how the mother of the driver that hit them sent her son to Puerto Rico to live (he was in college here). Unbelievable!!! So tonight she is a bit bummed out—I feel so bad for her.

Allen went hog hunting tonight (just absolutely disgusting) but he loves to hunt—so hopefully he will at least have some fun!!

Again I had a BLAST blogging for a month in the NABLOPOMO challenge…
Until Next Time …. PEACE!!!

TAKING THE NABLOPOMO CHALLENGE

Today is the first day of the big challenge----to blog every day for a month---November is the month---I am determined to make it this year---last year I became very ill a week before thanksgiving and it lasted for three weeks---so this year I want to prove to myself that I can do it again.

There is a prompt (idea) for every day except weekends—in case you cannot think of something to blog about---I think I will use those prompts to help me along….

Today’s Prompt is: WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE QUOTE AND WHY?

So here is my favorite quote:

Life is not a journey to the
grave with the intention
of arriving safely in a
pretty and well preserved body,
but rather to skid in broadside,
thoroughly used up,
totally worn out,
and loudly proclaiming--
WOW--What A Ride!

It’s my favorite because it explains my philosophy pretty much on life----you have been given this one life to live----full of talent, feelings, ideas, challenges, gifts, well you get the idea—and I firmly believe that you have to use it all up to the fullest—give back to the earth, to others…everything you’ve got to give—pour it all out—use it all up—because you cannot take it with you…at the same time—even if you come across hard or difficult times---it is life—you are alive to experience both the bad and the good---enjoy it all. Use it all up…smile..cry…feel it all---love it all…use up everything you got---and leave the planet—just a lil bit better then when you came…PEACE!!!
