Another Day In Boulder City

Good morning and cheers to Blogger.com for the face lift.
It is a wonderful fall day in my neighborhood.
I am hoping your day is as calm as mine has been, so far.
I must admit I am fresh from a four day camping trip in Northern Arizona. Just beautiful.
If I can figure it out, I will share photos.

For now, I am getting used to a new desk which requires a new filing system. Thought I would take a break here and share some of these gems a friend and client sent to me today.
Yes, it was an e-mail that if I had sent it on to my friends, the forward button would have allowed someone access to even more e-mail addresses than they might have gleaned from the original posting.
Forgive me.
That was a snippet of a soap box I get on from time to time. Just fight that urge to simply forward those emails. Copy and paste so the addresses don't remain for scoundrels to pick up for spam ads. Enough said.

Okay so here are a few of my favorites.
Trust me, I was so very honored to get this. Even more honored to share with you here.

A Birth Certificate shows you were born.
A Death Certificate shows you have died.
A photo album shows you have lived.

Things to remember along the way:

Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

If you want your dreams to come true, you mustn't oversleep.

Of all the things you wear, your expression is the most important.

The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts.

One thing you can give and still keep.......is your word.

The heaviest thing you can carry is a grudge.

You lie the loudest when you lie to yourself.

Ideas won't work unless you do.

One thing you can't recycle is wasted time.

It is never too late to become what you might have been.

Life is too short to wake up with regrets.....
so love the people who treat you right... forget about the ones who don't.

Believe everything happens for a reason.

If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it.
Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
And lastly, my favorite for today.......

Your mind is like a parachute.....it functions only when it is open.

Though I am not relating stories of clients this morning, I am hoping you are enjoying some of the fruits good friends offer us.
As I said, I am fresh from a camping trip with a friend who slept the day away, every day.
That is exactly what the trip was for, rest.
I have to admit, the cool temperatures and post rainy air around that campfire kept finding me asleep in my chair, too.
I am looking forward to the changing season.
I am looking ahead to new choices, better attitudes, brighter smiles.
I am hoping for your good health and much deserved happiness.

Let's all of us make some magic today, shall we?

Always, Nancy McEldowney
