Good Friday morning everyone!  Can you believe that I slept till 8:30!?!!  I'm telling you, I am so relaxed up here.  Today is my last day.  I don't even want to think about it.  I miss my babies though and can't wait to get there to see them.  I just HATE leaving Lucy.  SOON, she'll be in Alabama and it will be for good.  Her sister Lori and family took us to the movies last night.  We saw Get Smart.  You gotta see this movie!  It's SO funny!  Her family has accepted me and they treat me so wonderful.  I am amazed at how comfortable I am around them all.  God just knows what HE is doing.  If you EVER want a great vacation, I would highly suggest Minnesota.  It is beautiful here.  Grant it, I, a bama boy, was in culture shock for a couple of days, but there is SO much to do here.  So much to see.  I can't wait till Torey and Allison get here in 3 weeks.  We will leave on July 13th (day after my b'day HA) to come up.  Gotta wait till after church to leave.  LOL  We'll spend 3 days up here and drive back home.  Enough rambling.  This IS coffee talk.  LOL Our challenge for today is to appreciate what you DO have.  We take so much for granted.  We take our awesome country for granted, our friends, our jobs, our spouses, our loved ones, our children, our homes, just too much to list.  Just enjoy and love what you do have.  We are an age of more more more.  Just look at what you have.  Do you REALLY need more?  Do you really have to have it or is it just want?  It's good to want better, but do it in time.  It's good to apprecaiate and LOVE what you have.  Love it ya'll.  Love what you have.  Love WHO you have.  Show them.  Show people you don't take them for granted.  Show your home you don't take it for granted.  Show your boss you don't take your job for granted.  Tell someone you don't take their friendship for granted.  Your day will be so much better.  YOUR LIFE will be so much better!  Trust me!    So, what cha sipping on?  Me?  I'm enjoying some AWESOME Swiss Chocolate Almond from Adrianamae aka Kelly from Minnesota.  She can't join us tonight for the meet and greet due to being at the beach, so she gave Lucy and I 2 AWESOME and GOOD bags of coffee the other day at lunch!  She knew what to give us! HAHA.  There are suppose to be between 25 and 30 there tonight and I can't wait to meet everyone!  What are you enjoying today? Ya'll have an awesome Friday and a great weekend!

Nothing tastes as good as being thinner feels.

I have to walk early in the morning, before my brain figures out what I'm doing.

Good morning Randall and Lucy!! Thank you for another great challenge, Randall!!  I think we all need to be reminded to be thankful for what and who we have!! I know I am thankful for my family, my friends, my home, my job (even thought I do complain too much...I will work on that!)and my supportive family here on the Bama Board!! Safe trip home...praying for you!! I almost forgot...have a great time tonight and tell everyone in Minnesota I said hello!!!  Give Lucy a hug for me!!

Christ's peace,

Today was a lazy day for me and Nate (my 10 yr old son). But we did manage to get up and have b'fast and start our housekeeping. He has a friend over now to play video games.

 

Reading your post I stopped to think.. I do take alot for granted.. I will be praying and working on that. Thank you for the wake up. :)

 

Hugs to you all!
