A daily habit of mine…after every shower, after every bath….
The scent will change from time to time, but the habit remains the same.
Lotion! All over my arms and legs.
Every where!
Every day!

“Time only counts when you have a purpose”
I came across this line in a book I’m reading. It made me stop and pause for a moment.
Is this true?
Without purpose, time doesn’t count?
I know that without purpose in my life, it can feel as though I have no value.
But does this mean that if I don’t keep track of time, there is no purpose?
Hmmmm….
Value. Purpose. Time.
I think they might all just go hand-in-hand.
If I have a purpose, I feel valued.
If I feel valued, I have purpose.
If I have purpose…time and the things I do in that time, will count.
It certainly helps to have purpose and meaning in life, but I really think that with or without it….time still counts.
After they’re gone….
Those two little words that we have been waiting all winter to hear!
PLAY BALL!
In just a few short hours, Opening Day 2013 will start for Major League Baseball teams all across the USA!
The game I’m going to be watching is, San Diego Padres: @New York Mets, Monday, April 1, 1:10 p.m.
Let’s go Padres!
At least I think it is anyway.
Three boxes of Mucinex later. Eating cough drops like they actually taste good, and drinking endless amounts of hot tea. I think I may have finally reached the end of this cough!
It still likes to make its annoying presence known every now and then, but it’s nothing like it was a few weeks a go! I can actually go to sleep at night without having a 10 minute coughing spree first!
Who would have ever thought that the lady at the drugstore would be right?!
When we bought our first box of Mucinex, she told us, (more like “warned us”)… that this “thing” would stick around for a long time.
And boy, did it! It’s been 2 full months. If I remember right, she said it would last for 8 weeks or so.
I guess Drugstore lady really knows her stuff! And…I guess I should be grateful for her warning.
Thankfully, the cough drops and Mucinex have been removed from my daily diet, however, I still enjoy a good cup of hot tea occasionally!
I heard a song about the value of time, and looking back on life with only regret. The old guy in the song is talking to a younger guy, telling him all about his regrets in life, because he didn’t take time.
Time for his family, time for his friends, time for a smile, time for a hug. His advice was to slow down, and enjoy what you have each day, because before you know it… it will be gone.
I know that time goes by quickly. Every day it seems to go by just a little bit faster. I’m not sure how that happens, but it does!
And, I guess we will all end up with a few regrets at the end of our life. I know I have a few, and there will probably be a few more as my life goes on.
Of course there will be things in this life that are out of my control, that may or may not cause regret. I realize this.
But is it necessary to live a life full of regret? I sure hope not.
So, what does the word regret mean? I looked it up.
It looks to me like I won’t be able to get though life without them. But I think that by making good choices, I just might be able to limit the number of regrets, and maybe even eliminate a few along the way.
And that’s what I want.
I want to smile, and enjoy the moments of every day, and hopefully not end up like that old guy in the song!

I sincerely believe that it is far more beneficial and far less costly to help a child build confidence than it is to fix an adult who has little or none.
