The Law of the Garbage Truck

Got this in an email and had to share it because it really makes you stop and think before you do something you might regret later on.

Words to live by....
Law of the Garbage Truck
One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport. Wewere driving in the right lane when suddenly a black car jumped out of aparking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on hisbrakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches!

The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was really friendly. So I asked, 'Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!'

This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck.' He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on you. Don't take it personally. Justsmile, wave, wish them well, and move on.. Don't take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets.

The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take over their day. Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so... Love the people who treat you right. Pray for the ones who don't.

Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you take it!
Have a blessed, garbage-free day!

Whats Been Going on

It's weird that I'm doing this blogging thing and I'm not sure how I'm going to have time to actually sit and do it but its going to be awesome! I feel this is a place I can just let everything out and let everything be free.

Life is going good. Getting Katelyn's potty training thing down. Yesterday I called a place over here for Katelyn to start going to school for 3 days a week. I sign her up March 5th and she starts the end of August. So this is going to be awesome! Great for her and she can get some socialization in her life with children her age. My kids are awesome. People keep wondering if we're having anymore. My answer is......you never know but I feel like our life is truly complete. We just got a cat. Her name is Daisy and she is just so sweet and so cute around the kids. The girls LOVE her and actually.....so does my husband. My life is strange and complicated and fun and rough and crazy and awesome and just beautiful! It's completely full of surprises!
