Something's gotta give
I'll start with a list of what's NOT going to give.
My self worth. My spirit must be free to soar. Crushing is not allowed.
My fun. Why do they call it 'down' time? It's 'up' time.
My needs. Barbra Streisand is right. People who need people...
My health. Comfort food with no nutritional value is not comfort food.
My bills. First things first.
My cats. Fabulous company, but I did stop at two.
My friends. People who lift my spirit, and want me to lift theirs.
My goals. Even little ones I celebrate.
My coffee. It's good for us. At least that's what they say this year.
My wine. Ditto.
My family. Constant motivation and inspiration on how to get along.
My laptop. And, for the well dressed PC, virus, spy, trojan, malware protection.
My color. I don't care if black, white and gray is in fashion. It's not for me.
My garden. My labor of love, and cheap therapy.
My faith. Couldn't breathe without it.
My hair color. Enough said.
My New York Times. This is not a paid endorsement.
What's gonna give.
A clean house.
Sales of any kind. Well, ideally.
Expensive entertainment.
Facebook. Once a week is enough.
Home cooked meals every night.
Magazine subscriptions.
Saving the world.
Keeping up with the Joneses.
Self sufficiency.

Thank you for your blog! I especially love the "What's gonna give" list. Self sufficiency and saving the world would top my list as well. My widowhood began on July 21, 2011. I cannot fathom walking this path without the Lord. Your blogs are an encouragement and I thank you for them. Many blessings to you.
