Difficulties Are Oprtunities

Difficulties are opportunities to better things,
they are stepping stones to greater experience.
Perhaps some day you will be thankful
for some temporary failure in a particular direction.
When one door closes,
another always opens,
as a natural law it has to be, to balance.

~ Brian Adams (from 'How to Succeed') ~

Getting Older

I must be getting older, it seems there are more aches and pains in the joints and lower back, and when the person on cash register just gives you the seniors discount with out having to ask for it.

On a more cheery note last night we celebrated valentine's day by having Chinese food, and a movie "Nights in Rodanthe" staring Richard Gere and Diane Lane.

Adrienne Willis, a woman with her life in chaos, retreats to the tiny coastal town of Rodanthe, in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, to tend to a friend's inn for the weekend. Here she hopes to find the tranquility she so desperately needs to rethink the conflicts surrounding her -- a wayward husband who has asked to come home, and a teen-aged daughter who resents her every decision. Almost as soon as Adrienne gets to Rodanthe, a major storm is forecast and a guest named Dr. Paul Flanner arrive. The only guest at the inn, Flanner is not on a weekend escape but rather is there to face his own crisis of conscience. Now, with the storm closing in, the two turn to each other for comfort and, in one magical weekend, set in motion a life-changing romance that will resonate throughout the rest of their lives.

Starting over

It has been quite a day trying to fix my old blog, after hours of trying I finally gave up and started a new one.

I was trying to change templates and got in trouble, I lost my page elements and found them on the bottom of my page,and could not figure out how to move them back up.

Anyway this enough rambling for today.
