...too short. We are NOT guaranteed a "next time" to take action, meet, gather, talk, or say what is on our mind or how we feel. Just sayin'.
I've been scarce 'round these parts and probably will be for a while because life happens. Along with other issues, I finally received the results of my CT scan of the chest. My aorta is, indeed, enlarged. So, the next step is to see the surgeon ASAP to discuss surgery options; I've had 3 previous open heart surgeries. While I still haven't really processed this news myself, I suppose the good news is that people who THINK I have a "big heart" now have proof....
Not sure what this means for my cars or my road trips, but we'll see.
MEANTIME ... some quotes:
"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away."
"Sometimes our light goes out but is blown again into flame by an encounter with another human being. Each of us owes the deepest thanks to those who have rekindled this inner light."
"I'm a personal luxury coupe in a beige crossover vehicle world."
"Life is like photography; you develop from the negatives."
"Worry is pulling tomorrow’s clouds over today’s sunshine!"
"Bad decisions make good stories."
"Cars are new once, but old forever...!"
"A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort."
"Due to the current economic climate, the light at the end of the tunnel has been switched off until further notice."
"Mileage wears out an automobile, while walking three miles a day keeps the body in shape."
"Travel is a triple delight: anticipation, performance, and recollection."
"We'll never be ready if we keep waiting for the perfect time to come."
"One of the hardest things in life is having words in your heart that you can't utter."
"Happiness does not depend on circumstances; it is an attitude. It's like finding your favorite radio station that you can tune into at any time!"
"Life is like a snow globe; you think everything has finally settled down, then someone comes along and shakes up all those little pieces again."
"Life is like a coin. You can spend it any way you wish, but you only spend it once."
"The road is a place where we can free our minds from the distractions of the world and focus on the journey ahead."
"Broken people are dangerous because they know they can survive...!"
"Scars are just tattoos with better stories."
"Sometimes life is just about rolling down the windows in your car, blasting your favorite song & forgetting the world for a while."
"How lucky it is to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard."
