Goodnight
Day is done and night is here. The moon is bright and the air is cool. Maybe I haven’t done everything I wanted to do this day, but I did all I could in the twenty four hours I was given. Do all you can, with what you have and know you did your best.

Cookbooks are Cool
I love to collect cookbooks. Especially pretty fabric covered ones. The thing is cookbooks I love, actually cooking I do not. Baking I enjoy and I am fairly good at it. I’m a good cook too but I just don’t enjoy it. Today’s thought, do what you enjoy even if it doesn’t make sense to…

You’re Not Everything
You can’t be everything to everyone in your life. No matter how hard you try you can’t please everyone. It’s not possible. You can say yes. You can do and do and still…it will not please everyone. Stop trying. It is okay to say No. You are not everything, stop trying to be. Those special…

Maybe you shouldn’t
Just because you can do a thing, doesn’t mean you should do it. Think things through. Deliberately pause and ask yourself if you should do it before you do the thing you so desire. Save yourself some grief later.
