So I'm sitting here at my desk, working away, doing my typing for Monday now, over the weekend, as I always do so I can have Monday free rather than Sat/Sun free. I thought I'd take a little break from my work and thumb through a new catalog that just came in with today's post. I came to a little sign for sale, a wooden burgundy sign, with a great MOTTO printed on it that I just fell in love with. You may have seen this motto before, but for me, today, it hit me just right and I think I'll adopt it as my motto from now on. It goes like this:

MOTTO TO LIVE BY

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave

with the intention of arriving safely in an

attractive and well-preserved body,

but rather to skid in sideways, body

thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and

screaming: "WOO HOO, what a ride!"

Oh yeah. I'm definitely going to end my days with a thoroughly used up and totally worn out body. In fact, the way I feel these days, that day may not be too far off!

Oh, BTW, the catalog, just to give credit where credit is due, was The Country House catalog, on page 24.


Cheers,

Bex
