Quoting: Simple27 Quoting: JazzyG I have a plan. I'm gonna start drinking in a couple of hours. That will warm me up and give me the courage to get out there and shovel. Lol! I'm not touching that right now. But I know it's going to get colder and colder so I can't put it off too long. Shoveling is slightly less awful with a buzz. Quoting: Simple27 NOOOO!! Alcohol LOWERS the body temp. That's the last thing you want to do. It numbs the body so you can't tell when it's freezing. To know where your heart is, look where your mind goes when it wanders.
A rock in bad hands killed Abel. A rock in good hands killed Goliath. It isn't about the rock.
A true warrior fights not because he hates the one in front of him, but because he loves those behind him.

Don't look at it as taking something away from your Mini Me Simple, look at it as an adventure that not only will expand her world but will also enrich both your lives. Most people live were they were born and grow up to get a job and remain there. Some people move from where they grew up for a job, then then remain where that job it. But an even smaller group are the ones that take a risk out of their comfort zone to choose where they want to live and then look for work to support that. I have never believed in waiting until you retire to move where you want to live. What is the point!?!? By then age prevents most from truly enjoying it. I am not saying it's easy. But I am saying it can be done. I sold everything 11 years ago to move from WI to AZ. Who needs all that material crap anyway!?!? Slowly I built it back up. No regrets, best decision I ever made. I love where I live, but circumstances in US are not making me rethink everything. What kind of a life is my daughter going to have here when it all comes crashing down? Scares the crap out of me. So now I am considering doing it all again. Yes the thought is scary....but life should be an adventure! Doesn't matter where you go or what you have Simple as long as you and Mini Me are together!!!! |
