YOUTH IS A STATE OF MIND
Both of my daughters know I love the daily flip calendars of Bible verses or of quotes, and I received one of each type for Christmas. Here are a few humorous thoughts on aging from the Barbara Johnson
'I Don't Suffer From Insanity...I enjoy every minute of it' calendar:
Inside every older person
There's a younger person,
Wondering what happened.
--Ashleigh Brilliant
***
No matter how incongrously our
youthful minds fit into our aging bodies,
we can refuse to be old.
We can celebrate our youth--
no matter how many decades
we've been youthful!
***
You know you're getting old
when you yearn for those
blessed old hymns
of days gone by,
*"Go Tell it on the Mountain--
and SPEAK UP!"
*"Nobody knows the Trouble
I Have Seeing"
*"Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah
(I've Forgotten Where I Parked)"
***
Thanks, Jami! I'm enjoying this calendar!

AND SINCE WE'VE NO PLACE TO GO....
For those of you who aren't on Facebook, here's what our yard looks like this week.
9" of snow...even more than we had last week & the week before. It's quite unusual for us to have more than an inch or two.
I think it's a beautiful sight, but our friends, who have indoor pets aren't so happy about having to take their pets out for a walk with all this snow & ice.
Wishes for everyone, but especially for you, Jami!! S: )

MONDAY MUSINGS
Here's what Maxine thought of my
'clean slate' idea....
If you made any New Year's resolutions,
here's hoping you have better luck than Maxine!
Perhaps Ziggy has a better approach....
It's worth a try, don't you think?
