Miss Daisy.

Yesterday I got this Gerbera Daisy.It reminds me of the Zinneas my aunt used to have in her garden when I was a kid. I got the orange one on purpose as those are my fave. ones. I also like orange roses too, esp. the really small ones, the Sweetheart Roses. I went to Wal-Mart as I had so many things I was running out of and had to get and there was only a small line-up of a few people so it didn't take too long as I can't stand for long or I faint. I found the stuff I had sent my hubby for numerous times before but he claimed they didn't have( they did; he just wasn't looking in the right spot, just as I had suspected) but they didn't have my Dandilion Root pills ( for my liver) an herbal supplement, and said I should try a natural health store, so I guess it's a bit too Hippie, ha,ha. The lump on my mother's elbow was also bigger yesterday and more red and also itchy but she still never went to the ER( maybe it's a spider bite or something?) and I suspect she's just fed-up and tired of the whole thing; of being old and sick and falling apart and everything and she's just given up(I can totally understand this) and now just spends most time laying in her bed and doesn't even venture out anymore to sit in her chair in the livingroom or out on the front porch like she used to enjoy. She also has this "thing" where for some weird reason she likes to "punish" and "torture" herself" and despite my prompting her to try and do something about it to at least try and feel better ( either sit outside and perk up, feel energized,and  feel better with some fresh air and sunshine or go to the ER and have them try and fix it...) instead of just laying in bed all day waiting to die she's a stubborn old woman and won't listen, esp. to me.

I also was thinking of lessons I've learned in life and here they are, my top ones:

- You can't trust anyone

-it's usually the one you least expect

- Hope for the best but expect the worst

- Things are often not as they appear

- Everything is an illusion

- If something looks too good to be true it probably is

-No one cares

- Keep your friends close and your enemies closer

- Trust your instincts

-Forgive but never forget

- Find joy in the little things

- Never settle

- The ones you love the most hurt you the most

-Mind your own business

-Just because you believe something is true, doesn’t mean it is.
