As some of you know, my trip to Southeastern Guide Dogs has bee delayed. Dolly's new retirement date is 11/8 which is the day I will "go back to school". I will return 12/3 with my new guide dog.
So...how about more quotes to hold you. Today I will feature my laundry room wall.
"Some days I wonder how my kids will turn out, but most of the time I'm just trying to figure out how to survive them right now."
"Do not mistake endurance for hospitality."
"Women are made to be loved, not understood."
"Don't make me get the flying monkeys."
"Sometimes being around small children is like being nibbled to death by ducks."
"I try to take one day at a time...but sometimes, several days attack me at once."
Happy Trails to you!

I is for Interesting Quotes
Yes, I find all of these quotes interesting at the very least. You may also find them to be ingenious, iffy, intimate, intriguing and/or informative.
"Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened"
Anatole France

"So, how's that workin' for ya?"

"People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies.
Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you.
Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight.
Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, people may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough.
Give the world the best you have anyway.
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway."

B is for Brainstorm
Inspired by Kate (The Clock Talked Loud), the following are some of the beautiful, bold, bodacious, belligerent, bust-a-gut or bewidering, but all beloved by me quotes I've had the good fortune to run across.
"A mutt is couture--the only one like it in the world, and made especially for you."
Isaac Mizrahi
"May those who love us, love us
And those that don't love us,
May God turn their hearts;
And if He doesn't turn their hearts
May He turn their ankles
So we'll know them by their limping"
an Old Gaelic Blessing
"I am Bord!!!!!!!!!!!!"
a note passed by my son at 5 yo while sitting in church
"Blessed are Women whose hearts and souls are joined together by laughter and tears for they shall be known as SISTERS"
a plaque in a catalog
"May the light always find you on a dreary day.
When you need to be home may you find a way.
May you always have courage to take a chance.
And never find frogs in your underpants."
an anonymous Scandinavian
"While I admire the glass is half full type...I'm comfortable with the fact my glass will always have a slow and steady leak."
Erin Smith
"Every boy should have two things: a dog, and a mother willing to let him have one."
