Have you noticed........

The weather is beautiful ..........on the day I have to work.
Skinny girls seem to be able to eat all they want, I eat one piece of chocolate and it goes straight to my - well, backside!
When the last of the lawn is mowed the first part has grown a foot.
Your children cant hear their cell phone to answer when you call, but they respond to a text.
The vehicle that goes ten miles under the speed limit with no possible passing zones only gets in front of you when you are late.
A good hair day usually occurs on stay home days.
That stuff in the miracle little bottle that promises to fill in all your wrinkles IMMEDIATELY with pictures of real women on the box - doesn't!
Ice cream tastes best at 9pm.
Grandchildren run faster the older I get.
The hours in each day are shorter and my desire to accomplish things cant keep up.

The drive to work gives you lots of time to pray and reflect on the beautiful weather.
Skinny girls will never know the sheer elation of secret chocolate.
I praise God for a riding lawn mower and a husband who says he likes to do the riding of the thing.
My child, though deaf to my ring tone, is healthy and answers my text with a note that says he loves me.
I can learn to pray for the person driving the vehicle but not half as hard as I pray for a chance to pass (sorry)!
Good hair days are a reminder that I have great hair even when it has a mind of its own.
My face has earned every wrinkle and crevice but would gladly offer to allow a plastic surgeon to camouflage some of my experience.
Ice cream is its own food group and should be consumed daily. But it still taste best at 9pm.
If I cant run as fast as the grandchildren, I can either send the dog to fetch them back or pray they run out of steam before I do. Not likely but I will continue my delusions, thank you very much.
The shorter hours in each day and my list of things to try remind me to treasure each day and make wiser choices in how I spend them - I still want to sky dive but will save that for Heaven cause these knees - well, I better save them for chasing grandchildren, opphs, there she goes....see you later...............racing on........................
