Words to live by

For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone." – Audrey Hepburn

Yep I'm 39

Wasn't I just 30? I suppose this is the second half of things starting now. My boys are almost grown and I have a lot of things I want to do. My 20s flew by. I was raising the boys and working really hard at two jobs plus cutting the grass, paying the bills, and spending a lot of time at the lake and playing golf.

I got off track a bit after the boys went to live with their dad. I lost a lot of the zest I once had. Nothing really appealed to me or excited me like before. But I think I got it back once I realized how blessed I really am. It took me a few years too long but I'm back.

I have a job that I love. I get to see my dad, mom, and brother every day and the boys when they can work me in. The boys have turned out to be amazing young men, with a lot of help from their dad and stepmom too.

I couldn't ask for much more. Maybe a date now and then? :-)
