2018, DAY TWO...

I've many new years resolutions for 2018,

always do, keep about two throughout the year

but this year, going to make it my year of gratefulness.

Choose a word to be YOUR WORD for the year.

GRATEFULNESS.

Many years from now, perhaps when I am gone,

my grand girls, their babies may search and find this blog

and remember what Mumsie wanted for all but mostly for

them to remember, so here goes:

Today, day two of 2018

"Humble And Kind"

(written by Lori McKenna)

You know there's a light that glows by the front door

Don't forget the key's under the mat

When childhood stars shine,

Always stay humble and kind

Go to church 'cause your mamma says to

Visit grandpa every chance that you can

It won't be wasted time

Always stay humble and kind

Hold the door, say "please", say "thank you"

Don't steal, don't cheat, and don't lie

I know you got mountains to climb

But always stay humble and kind

When the dreams you're dreamin' come to you

When the work you put in is realized

Let yourself feel the pride

But always stay humble and kind

Don't expect a free ride from no one

Don't hold a grudge or a chip and here's why:

Bitterness keeps you from flyin'

Always stay humble and kind

Know the difference between sleeping with someone

And sleeping with someone you love

"I love you" ain't no pick-up line

So always stay humble and kind

Hold the door, say "please", say "thank you"

Don't steal, don't cheat, and don't lie

I know you got mountains to climb

But always stay humble and kind

When those dreams you're dreamin' come to you

When the work you put in is realized

Let yourself feel the pride

But always stay humble and kind

When it's hot, eat a root beer popsicle

Shut off the AC and roll the windows down

Let that summer sun shine

Always stay humble and kind

Don't take for granted the love this life gives you

When you get where you're going don't forget turn back around

And help the next one in line

Always stay humble and kind

If you have not heard this song yet, listen to it,

watch the video on YouTube, it will touch a place

in even the coldest of hearts.

It says all I wish my grand girls and all the other young ones

in my life to remember.

...And this above is my personal 2018 Mantra...

Today, I am grateful for my fireplace, new favorite blankie,

given to me by Ms. Barbara, Boo's mom,

internet so I can share this with you all

and a warm cup of coffee..

Yes, I could be upset as my pipes froze,

but I am not even a little upset about it.

This is the year of happiness, each day better than

the last.

Much love to all of you, pick you 2018 word

and build on it daily!
