Eye Candy Friday

April 6, 2018 By Carole

This is the bouquet of flowers Doreen brought me on Easter. Tulips, because they are my favorite, and daisies, because they were my mom’s favorite. And isn’t that vase super cute, too? Love them. And love Doreen and hoping that the combo of my fav and my mom’s will bring me luck tomorrow because it’s Election Day!

Wish me luck, won’t you? Thanks, friends.

If there’s anything I’ve learned in my 55 years, it’s that facing forward is the best way to live. All the things in life, good or bad, can be resolved this way, our problems only multiple if we try to skirt around them. True satisfaction comes from looking life right in the eye, doing your best, and finding the joy. #aepiecesofus #thisismyface #faceforward

The washing and moisturizing, the attempts to hold the approach of aging at bay. They’ve held and comforted so many loved ones, they’ve changed diapers and checked out books at the library, they’ve typed countless words, they’ve cooked and cleaned and done everything I’ve expected and I appreciate every bump and age spot and ... they are mine. #aepiecesofus #piecesofme #myhandstellmystory
