The groundhog is like most other prophets;

it delivers its prediction and then disappears. 

~Bill Vaughn



Give us Lord, a bit o' sun,

A bit o' work, and a bit o'fun,

Give us all in the struggle and sputter,

Our daily bread and a bit o' butter,

~ from a pub in Lancaster, England

A bend in the road is not the end of the

road ... unless you fail to make the turn.

~ Unknown


Who will tell whether one happy moment of love or

the joy of breathing or walking on a bright morning

and smelling the fresh air, is not worth

all the suffering and effort which

life implies.

~ Erich Fromm


Life is like a coin.

You can spend it any way you wish,

but you only spend it once.

~ Emily Dickinson

I've learned that you shouldn't go through life

with a catcher's mitt on both hands;

you need to be able to throw something back.

Well, I think the ground hog may

see his shadow here today, as

the sun just might be out or it may not.

I want to thank you all for stopping by today and

most of all for sharing my pages with your friends,

family and groups. I have been getting some new

members sign up - and you know what they

say - the more the merrier. But seriously, thank you all.

The email and notes continue to find their way to me,

and I so appreciate each and every one.

Please do join me again tomorrow as I welcome

in the weekend. Have a good day and always be safe

and be aware of everything and everyone around you.
