METAMORPHOSIS MONDAY

METAMORPHOSIS MONDAY
BROUGHT TO YOU BY :

This is my office chair, it has sat in my office now for many years...It does its job well.. I have no complaints... But about a week ago... on the drive home from taking my daughter to school. I thought I might take a short detour into a neighborhood that's on my route home.. I just wanted to take a look at all the Fall decorations, maybe get a little inspiration... I went around a curve and, slow me down ... there on the curve sat the most beautiful leather office chair.... Yes just sitting there... I pulled over, got out of the car... and....

This is why that beautiful chair was on the curve... Do you see where the wheel is missing?

So I sat there for a minutes looking around... What would people think... The chair was calling my name... I knew I could find parts on the Internet... So I pulled, pushed, took it back out of the car turned it over ... more pulling and lots more pushing ... could not get the tail gate of my Mercedes to close...Almost but would not closed.... So I started to drive home (very slow) With the tail gate open ....Got home... the chair did not fall out.. So some more pulling and lots more pushing ..... and I got the chair in the house... Now I just can not believe my luck.... When my husband got home I talked him into taking the base off of the old chair and putting it on the new chair.... AND IT FIT....

So here is my new office chair...She is beautiful... and the best thing, she was free...Yes I said free... So keep your eyes open.... You never know what you might find...

PINK SATURDAY

IF I HAD MY LIFE TO LIVE OVER

by Erma Bombeck (written after she found out she was dying from cancer).

I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding pattern if I weren't there for the day.

I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage.

I would have talked less and listened more.

I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was stained, or the sofa faded.

I would have eaten the popcorn in the 'good' living room and worried much less about the dirt when someone wanted to light a fire in the fireplace.

I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth.

I would have shared more of the responsibility carried by my husband.

I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed.

I would have sat on the lawn with my grass stains.

I would have cried and laughed less while watching television and more while watching life..

I would never have bought anything just because it was practical, wouldn't show soil, or was guaranteed to last a lifetime.

Instead of wishing away nine months of pregnancy, I'd have cherished every moment and realized that the wonderment growing inside me was the only chance in life to assist God in a miracle.

When my kids kissed me impetuously, I would never have said, 'Later. Now go get washed up for dinner.' There would have been more 'I love you's' More 'I'm sorry's.' But mostly, given another shot at life,

I would seize every minute. Look at it and really see it . live it and never give it back.

STOP SWEATING THE SMALL STUFF!!!

Don't worry about who doesn't like you, who has more, or who's doing what. Instead, let's cherish the relationships we have with those who do love us.
