Time

Oh my how times have changed since I started this blog. When I got out of the hospital and was healing, I had so much time, I needed to plan out my schedule to give me a purpose.
Now I am writing because it calms and centers me. I am writing so I don't forget any of the things I need to do. Of course regardless of how tired I am, I defiantly prefer the latter.
I was in Borders this morning Christmas shopping.  I saw an old woman telling an employee of the store  she had trouble walking and that she needed help looking for the books on her list. The employee sounded put out and was rude to the old woman, she called someone else to help the lady and walked away. I walked over and asked the old woman how I could help her and she brightened like a Christmas tree.
You see I know what it is like not to be able to get around. However, I realize the employee is over worked and the holidays are crazy for retail workers. Who knows maybe she hurts also.  It is much harder to be loving when in pain.
I am so grateful to at last be 100% healthy, now I just have to rebuild my stamina.  As for me when I am very old (at least 100) I have decided I will defiantly like to be in a really nice nursing home, one where the staff keeps me entertained.
Today I am going to finish the last of my Christmas cards, write in my book, make some potato soup with spicy sausages, and do some cleaning.

Cheers. Spread love where ever you go. There is a quote that my sister loved-"Be kind, because you never know what silent battle someone is fighting."
