Enjoy the glow of life!


We went to the "wake" this afternoon for about 60 mins; and we have been home now for a short bit.

Very sedate and somber scene; and of course, why would it not be? The woman who passed away, was only 47 years young approx. Very tragic accident. Apparently, it was written up in the paper; the newspaper we do not receive at our door. Also, who would think it? - that it was someone they knew of, as opposed to reading about a stranger.

It just goes to show you how fragile life is. Here one day, and gone the next.
We went on behalf of Alan's good friend; and I guess the group were starting to feel "no pain"; as it was a "BYOB". Alan and I did not know it was a BYOB; but we were offered and shared a tid glass of red wine, before we left. We really did not have a lot to say; save to exchange sympathetic and compassionate smiles.

We are now glad to be home; still slightly daylight; and a beautiful glowing early fall evening at that! Alan just poured me a glass of champagne; which is very much hitting the spot. Every once in awhile, I enjoy a glass of champagne; always a wonderful treat!

We are so looking forward to our upcoming vacation in Zihua! We have also been "keeping a watchful eye" on our 'waistlines'; so that we are both 'slim and trim'. LOL! I plan to be 'svelt' in my bikini!

Tidbit - Praise Him in All Things.

Bittid - Appreciate your life; glow and shine! Make the best of everything; as you only go around once.

God Bless.
