We have a garden planted and we have tomatoes, broccoli, cucumbers, watermelon, spinach, lettuce, green beans, oh yeah carrots, and peas...I think that is about all. ;) Today it got as hot as 95 degrees!! :O that I have to say is hot!! Still looking for that summer job...gotta keep looking!! :)

A neat poem
Here is a poem a friend gave me... the message is profound and I want to learn how to live my life like this. It is important to learn and enjoy each day like this.
"SLOW DANCE"
Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain?
Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a
butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the
fading night?
You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Do you run through each day
On the fly?
When you ask How are you?
Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?
You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch,
Let a good
friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say,'Hi'
You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.
When you run
so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the
fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry
through your day,
It is like an unopened
gift... Thrown away.
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.

*You only live once, but if you work it right, once is enough.
*Life isn’t worth living unless you’re willing to take some big chances and go for broke.
*The first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: Decide what you want.
*Life is like a hot bath. It feels good while you’re in it, but the longer you stay in, the more wrinkled you get.
*God, if I can’t have what I want, let me want what I have.
*And in the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years.
*Our lives are like a candle in the wind.
*Life is like an onion: You peel it off one layer at a time, and sometimes you weep.
*Life without love is like a tree without blossom and fruit.
*Life is what happens to you while you’re working for your future.
*I love my past. I love my present. I’m not ashamed of what I’ve had, and I’m not sad because I have it no longer.
*Love the moment. Flowers grow out of dark moments. Therefore, each moment is vital. It affects the whole. Life is a succession of such moments and to live each, is to succeed.
*Love doesn’t make the world go ’round; love is what makes the ride worthwhile.
*Life resembles a novel more often than novels resemble life.
*Life is just a mirror, and what you see out there, you must first see inside of you.
*Man who waits for roast duck to fly into mouth must wait very, very long time.
*Our own life is the instrument with which we experiment with the truth.
*There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.
*There is only one success-to be able to spend your life in your own way.

11 hints for life..
"Eleven Hints for Life"
1. It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return.
But what is more painful is to love someone and never
find the courage to let that person know how you feel.
2. A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who
means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was
never meant to be and you just have to let go.
3. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a
porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away
feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.
4. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose
it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been
missing until it arrives.
5. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an
hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it
takes a lifetime to forget someone.
6. Don't go for looks, they can deceive. Don't go for wealth,
even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you
smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day
seem bright.
7. Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go,
be what you want to be. Because you have only one life and
one chance to do all the things you want to do.
8. Always put yourself in the other's shoes. If you feel that it
hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.
9. A careless word may kindle strife. A cruel word may wreck
a life. A timely word may level stress. But a loving word may
heal and bless.
10. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best
of everything they just make the most of everything that comes
along their way.
11. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, ends with
a tear. When you were born, you were crying and everyone
around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die,
you're the one smiling and everyone around you is crying.
