Guest guest Posted February 1, 2002 Report Share Posted February 1, 2002 Sheri, I do agree with you. We need to take more time " TO STOP AND SMELL THE ROSES " . I try to say " A Thank You " to my Heavenly Father each morning that I can get out of bed. He has given me many blessings. I am Thankful. Be Blessed, Becky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 2, 2002 Report Share Posted February 2, 2002 I like your attitude, Sheri! I agree that it's important to reflect on what we DO have and be grateful and give thanks. Good that you can joke about divorcing the divorce attorney; if you're laughing about it, so am I. And I AM glad you have a computer and that you joined us!!

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2002 Report Share Posted February 3, 2002 Hi , Well thank you and today still have the positive attitude and yet know it could change on a flip of a dime. And you bet I laugh about the divorce. I know another thing I am thankful for is after years of working in the office, we both saw how others " bait " their children and I do thank God we don't and even get along better today. Just one more thing most just don't understand, oh well. Always, Sheri --- <Matsumura_Clan@...> wrote: > I like your attitude, Sheri!
