Watch Your...

Watch your thoughts, for they become words. 

Watch your words, for they become actions. 

Watch your actions, for they become habits. 

Watch your habits, for they become character. 

Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.

Stuck In My Head: "I Don't Care" by Apocalyptica

I try to make it through my life

In my way, there's you

I try to make it through these lies

And That's all, I do

Just don't deny it

Don't try to fight this

And deal with it

That's just part of it.

If you were dead or still alive

I don't care

I don't care

Just go and leave this all behind

Cause I swear (I swear)

I don't care

I try to make you see my side

I always try to stay in line

But your eyes see right through

That's all they do

I'm getting buried in this place

I've got no room you're in my face

Don't say anything just go away

If you were dead or still alive

I don't care

I don't care

Just go and leave this all behind

Cause I swear (I swear)

I don't care

(Love changing everything)

(You won't be there for me)

(Love changing everything)

(You won't be there for me)

If you were dead or still alive

I don't care

I don't care

Just go and leave this all behind

Cause I swear (I swear)

I don't care

If you were dead or still alive

I don't care (I don't care)

I don't care (I don't care)

Just go and leave this all behind

I don't care (I swear)

I don't care

At all

You Are Loved!

Today, when you look at your life, who you have become, be grateful that you've made it to today. I am sure you have had moments when you thought you were gonna drown. When you felt like you couldn't handle it any longer. BUT you are here and you are stronger than you thought you were. You are stronger than you think you are today

You didn't arrive alone. You have had provision that surprised you, and support that helped hold you up You may not have even realized the influence that a simple smile may have had on your troubled heart or the hand that diverted that "last straw" that would have completely broken you.

Let the memory of your trials be a place of gratitude and the memory of your times of joy be sustenance for what may be hard today.

If your days are easy right now, store the joy in your heart like priceless treasure! Be the influence of strength while you are strong. Be the smile, the comfort of provision, the words of experience.

Know that you are loved.

Happy, Messy, And Stubborn

Happy and smiling!

She made a mess and refuses to clean it up!

Shelby Using the Force

Earlier this week, after shoveling snow & ice, 

I sat down for a few minutes to enjoy some Ben & Jerry's ice cream.  

Shelby decided she would lay next to me and stare at me the entire time I was eating!

 She used "The Force" to get me to give her a bite. And it worked!! lol

Snowflake Welcome and Office Decor

I found a new welcome sign yesterday to put outside my front door.

I love it!  I just need to find a way to keep the wind from knocking it over.

Hopefully this helps me get into the holiday mood.

Stuck In My Head: "Galway Girl" by Ed Sheeran

She played the fiddle in an Irish band

But she fell in love with an English man

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

Said, "baby, I just want to dance"

I meet her on Grafton street right outside of the bar

She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar

She asked me what does it mean, the Gaelic ink on your arm?

Said it was one of my friend's songs, do you want to drink on?

She took Jamie as a chaser, Jack for the fun

She got Arthur on the table with Johnny riding as a shotgun

Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar

Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance

You know, she played the fiddle in an Irish band

But she fell in love with an English man

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

Said, "baby, I just want to dance"

With my pretty little Galway girl

You're my pretty little Galway girl

You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool

And then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the room

As last orders were called was when she stood on the stool

After dancing to Kaleigh, singing to trad tunes

I never heard Carrickfergus ever sang so sweet

A capella in the bar using her feet for a beat

Oh, I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week

And in this packed out room swear she was singing to me

You know, she played the fiddle in an Irish band

But she fell in love with an English man

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

Said, "baby, I just want to dance"

My pretty little Galway girl

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl

And now we've outstayed our welcome and it's closing time

I was holding her hand, her hand was holding mine

Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine

As we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night

I walked her home then she took me inside

To finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine

I swear I'm gonna put you in a song that I write

About a Galway girl and a perfect night

She played the fiddle in an Irish band

But she fell in love with an English man

Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand

Said, "baby, I just want to dance"

My pretty little Galway girl

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl

My, my, my, my, my, my, my Galway girl, hey

Shelby Thinks It Is Sweater Time

Today I found Shelby's Christmas sweater and she demanded to put it on.

Yes, she demanded!!!  LOL So I put it on her and now she is nice and warm.

and capture the good times, develop from the 

negatives and if things don't work out, 

just take another shot.

Stuck In My Head: "It Aint Me" by Kygo and Selena Gomez

"It Ain't Me"

I had a dream

We were sipping whiskey neat

Highest floor, the Bowery

And I was high enough

Somewhere along the lines

We stopped seeing eye to eye

You were staying out all night

And I had enough

No, I don't wanna know

Where you been or where you're going

But I know I won't be home

And you'll be on your own

Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?

Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?

Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?

Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?

It ain't me

(The Bowery, whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful)

It ain't me

(The Bowery, whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful)

It ain't me

(The Bowery, whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful)

It ain't me

(The Bowery, whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful)

It ain't me

I had a dream

We were back to seventeen

Summer nights and The Libertines

Never growing up

I'll take with me

The Polaroids and the memories

But you know I'm gonna leave

Behind the worst of us

Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?

Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?

Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?

Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?

It ain't me, no, no

It ain't me, no, no

It ain't me, no, no

Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?

It ain't me

(The Bowery, whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful)

It ain't me

(The Bowery, whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful)

It ain't me

(The Bowery, whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful)

It ain't me

(The Bowery, whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful)

It ain't me

(The Bowery, whiskey neat, grateful, I'm so grateful)

It ain't me

Na na nanana The Bowery, na na nanana whiskey neat

(Grateful, I'm so grateful)

It ain't me

Happy National Chocolate Ice Cream Day

Today is National Chocolate Ice Cream Day!  

Stuck in My Head: "There's A Zombie On Your Lawn"

Sunflower
One, two, three!

There's a zombie on your lawn
There's a zombie on your lawn
There's a zombie on your lawn
We don't want zombies on the lawn

I know your type: tall, dark, and dead
You want to bite all the petals off of my head
And then eat the brains of the one who planted me here
I'm just a sunflower but see, me power an entire infantry
You like the taste of brains we don't like zombies

[Football Zombie]: I used to play football
[Conehead Zombie]: Road cones protect my head
[Screen Door Zombie]: I have a screen-door shield
[All]: We are the undead!

There's a zombie on your lawn
There's a zombie on your lawn
There's a zombie on your lawn
We don't want zombies on the lawn

Maybe it's time to reevaluate
I know you have a lot of food on your plate
Brains are quite rich in cholesterol
You're dead so it doesn't matter, instead we'll use this solar power
To make a lawn defense at any hour

[Digger Zombie]: I like your tricycle
[Zombie]: There's buttter on my head
[Dolphin]: I'm gonna eat your brains!
[All]: We are the undead!

There's a zombie on your lawn
There's a zombie on your lawn
There's a zombie on your lawn
We don't want zombies on the lawn
