I get all sorts of mags, "canadian living" "chatelaine" "macleans" "Gardening" and a few others. so if you like reading mags let me know and i will send someout when i go through the stacks of them.

I received this as an email. I really like it and thought i would share :)

A young wife sat on a sofa on a hot humid day, drinking iced tea and visiting with her Mother.

As they talked about life, about marriage, about the responsibilities of
life and the obligations of adulthood, the mother clinked the ice cubes in
her glass thoughtfully and turned a clear, sober glance upon her daughter.

"Don't forget your Sisters," she advised, swirling the tea leaves to the
bottom of her glass.

They'll be more important as you get older. No matter how much you love your husband, no matter how much you love the children you may have, you are still going to need Sisters.

Remember to go places with them now and then; do things with them.
"Remember that 'Sisters' means ALL the women..your girlfriends, your daughters, and all your other women relatives too. You'll need other women. Women always do.

" What a funny piece of advice!" The young woman thought. Haven't I just gotten married? Haven't I just joined the couple-world? I'm now a married woman, for goodness sake! A grownup! Surely my husband and the family we may start will be all I need to make my life worthwhile!' But she listened to her Mother.

She kept contact with her sisters and made more women friends each year. As the years tumbled by, one after another, she gradually came to understand that her Mom really knew what she was talking about. As time and nature work their changes and their mysteries upon a woman, Sisters are the mainstays of her life.

After more than 50 years of living in this world, here is what I've learned:

THIS SAYS IT ALL:

Time passes. Life happens. Distance separates. Children grow up. Jobs come and go.

Love waxes and wanes. Men don't do what they're supposed to do. Hearts break.

Parents die. Colleagues forget favors. Careers end.
BUT.........Sisters are there, no matter how much time and how many miles are between you. A girl friend is never farther away than needing her can reach. When you have to walk that lonesome valley and you have to walk it by yourself the women in your life will be on the valley's rim, cheering you on praying for you, pulling for you, intervening on your behalf, and waiting with open arms at the valley's end. Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk beside you...Or come in and carry you out.

Girlfriends, daughters, granddaughters, daughters-in-law, sisters
sisters-in-law, Mothers, Grandmothers, aunties, nieces, cousins, and
extended family, all bless our life! The world wouldn't be the same without
women, and neither would I. When we began this adventure called womanhood, we had no idea of the incredible joys or sorrows that lay ahead.

Nor did we know how much we would need each other.

Every day, we need each other still.

Pass this on to all the women who help make your life meaningful. I just
did.

i found this on the internet, i really like it.

A simple friend,when visiting, acts like a guest. A real friend opens your refrigerator and helps himself (and doesn't feel even the least bit weird shutting your 'beer/Pepsi drawer' with her foot!) A simple friend has never seen you cry. A real friend has shoulders soggy from your tears... A simple friend doesn't know your parents' first names. A real friend has their phone numbers in his address book. A simple friend brings a bottle of wine to your party. A real friend comes early to help you cook and stays late to help you clean. A simple friend hates it when you call after they've gone to bed. A real friend asks you why it took you so long to call. A simple friend seeks to talk to you about your problems. A real friend seeks to help you with your problems. A simple friend wonders about your romantic history. A real friend could blackmail you with it. A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when you have a argument. A real friend calls you after you had a fight. A simple friend expects you to always be there for them. A real friend expects to always be there for you!. A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when you have an argument. A real friend calls you after you had a fight. A simple friend expects you to always be there for them. A real friend expects to always be there for you

The rain! Holy! I realize I live in a rainforest, but c'mon now! I get soaking wet walking to the bus stop, with an UMBRELLA! The winds are quite heavy too, so my umbrella ends up inside out. I'am not complaining though, because i really do love where i live.

Luke is back in school fulltime again thankfully. Seems to be settling okay now that he has an aide with him for most of the day. His work is getting done and that's one of my main concerns right now.

Went to the Doctor last week and got my results from some testing they did. He told me I have diabetes. I have to test my blood 7 to 10 times a day for a month, to see what my levels are at, then decide if this can be treated by diet and excercise and or insulin injections ( which i had to do through out my last pregnancy ). I had gestational diabetes with both pregnancies, and was warned this may happen.

Life is still good.

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will.

You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken.

You'll fight with your best friend.

You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.



Found that on the internet, found it suiting to how i feel right now.

this is a cool meme
