I just got back from a funeral for the husband of one of my good friends. He died suddenly leaving a restaurant. It reminded me how very fleeting that life is and how we should live each day to the fullest, as we don't know what tomorrow holds.

I'm not a clothes browser but when I go with friends to thrift stores I love to browse. sandie
ReplyDeleteLife IS so fleeting, and we never know if we get another day here. That is certainly something worth pondering...
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing that song. I don't think I've ever heard it before, but there is something special about John Denver's voice.
ReplyDeleteSo very sorry for the loss of your friend's husband...life is more fragile than we realize. I'm a Thin Mints fan, too! As soon as Chris gets a job, we plan to refinance our house, as well.
ReplyDeleteWOW no time to say Goody! How terrible. I'm so sorry. Yes, left is fleeting, tell the ones you love that you love them while you can. Good luck with the refi.
ReplyDeleteOh goodness-any loss is difficult but a sudden one is even worse. I'll say a prayer for your friend. I used to love those Thin Mints too- especially right out of the freezer!
ReplyDeleteSending a prayer for peace for your friend.
ReplyDeleteI've actually hear that song before at a railfan event. Someone was showing train photos from Wyoming.
I agree with you that I'd rather do my browsing at a museum than a store!
Nice facts...sad about your friend's hubby passing. Life really is fleeting, isn't it? xo Diana
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your friend's loss. We don't know what tomorrow holds, but PTL we know Who holds tomorrow. You're all in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteI like to visit museums, too.
I hope that your week gets better.
