I am an old man and have known a great many troubles, but most of them never happened. ~ Mark Twain
Yesterday was picture day at school…you probably remember those days…
everyone comes to school…scrubbed and polished…wearing their best outfit…
Well…I’m no exception…at least not this time…while I usually don’t enjoy having my picture taken…I’ve lost weight…so…I thought a new picture might be just the thing…
I started getting ready for it the day before…by washing my hair…which usually looks better on the second day…then yesterday morning…I painstakingly selected my outfit…discarding three or four before finding just the right thing…carefully applied my makeup…and I was all set…
Picture perfect…
The only thing is…I never went to get my picture made…I was busy…no one ever called for me…I didn’t feel good…spring pictures aren’t mandatory…the dog ate my homework…and the list goes on…for whatever reason…I never went…
Bertha…laughed and reminded me of Mr. Twain’s quote…one of her favorites…as she pointed out…this is so true about my life…most of the things I fret and worry about…never happen…and…all the fretting…just gets in the way of enjoying my life at the time…
So about my picture…oh well…maybe next year…fall pictures are mandatory…hmmm…wonder what I should wear…

Okay so I know this isn’t the part you probably want me to focus on here but — my hair also looks best the second day!! I find comfort in knowing someone else feels that way hehe. I do love your posts they always leave me thoughtful xx
LOL…I love it, Christy! It’s great to know that there are two of us…at least! I appreciate your comment and your continued support.
