My Last Post...

Live today to the fullest because tomorrow is not promised. If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change the way you think about it!

This will be my last post... I've been doing a lot of thinking about this lately and this morning after reading the above email that I received from a sweet email friend about "if you don't like something change it, if you can't change it, change the way you think about it", I've decided to stop blogging, at least for awhile. For the most part I've enjoyed my brief visit into Blog Land, but it's time for me to move onto other things. I'll still be ebaying my heart out and watchin' dear Ashy =)

Thank Yous and Hugs to all of the wonderful women I have met via Blog Land!

Happy News & Sad News

We'll start with the "Happy News". The magazine with my adorable grandbubby Ashton in it has FINALLY hit the newstands. Ashy looks so little in these photos as they were taken when he was only 2 1/2 weeks old and now he's almost 5 months and about 17#!!! He's my chunky, chubby man =)

As for the "Sad News", my 23 year old son, Charlie, was ROBBED AT GUN POINT earlier this week by three black guys in their late teens/early 20's. It happened right across the street from his work. Thank God Charlie wasn't hurt. They stole his wallet, which only had $20.00 cash in it, but he had been saving Best Buy gift certificates for months (we had been giving them to him for Christmas, Birthday, etc.) to buy a new TV, and he had $400.00 worth of those in this wallet also. He spent the next day going to the credit union, the Secretary of State, etc. trying to replace all of his ID and bank cards that were in his wallet, having to get a new bank account number, etc. (what a crappy way to spend your day off). I am just so thankful that he wasn't shot or killed! He was so calm about it, which I'm sure is why he wasn't hurt. He just did exactly what they told him to. I can NOT even imagine having a gun shoved in my back. What is this world coming to...

Angels above Us...

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend.. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back. And always remember, you are special to someone, someone cares about you more than you will ever know. So treat everyone in your life as you would like to be treated, special! Don't be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin...
