Greatest advice ever received...

What words have inspired you over the years?

My dad - "Take care of yourself first. Get on your feet, and then get married. If anything ever happens, you want to be able to fall back on yourself." I think that's why I work so damn much...

and...

I think this is in a song...but it's the truth!...

"It's not about having what you want, it's wanting what you have."

"It depends on what drives you." heard that literally less than an hour ago. It's very true, the only reason why I'm sticking to this nightmare situation and holding it out and filing paper work is because I believe in it. I refuse to fail, it is not an option, and I refuse to give up... no matter how much crying is involved.

This too shall pass

"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are."

"Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst."
Some random customer I had told me that about 2 years ago when I worked as a cashier at a terrible grocery store. I was having a horrible day (I had just learned that Ryan wouldn't be getting his Thanksgiving leave approved which meant that we were going on 11 solid months of not seeing each other & I was getting yelled at by my boss because my "secret shopper" had failed me), and while I didn't say anything to this guy, he just kind of looked at me and told me everything was going to be okay.

your never to old to wish upon a star. But as you get older you realize wishing is not enough you have to aim to make your dream a reality by setting goals :-)

*someone just posted it on facebook* lol

"You have the rest of your life to clean your house, babies are only babies once."

That's what prompted me to start leaving dishes in the sink to play with Weeble Wobbles after work.

Yep. I agree.

"Not every dream has to change the world."

Solve the Problem.....


That's it.... don't complain about it, don't put it on someone else..... just solve the problem!

Now it's a LOT easier said than done!

Kind of like trying to lose weight/working out

After I heard that...my life changed.

I'd rather spend time with Wesson and watch him smile. I have my whole life to do dishes!
