Fridays Difference

Good Morning Friends,

 

It’s Friday and the end of another work week, I hope you had time to make yourself along with others smile, laugh and enjoy the day. It’s so easy to get wrapped up in the drama of our surrounding. Take time to remember that each day brings us many opportunities, how you choose to handle them is solely up to you, but being positive can make the difference between having a good day or bad one. The story is a reminder that our children and grandchildren see how we respond to others, whether we're kind, helpful or always try to do the right thing. Enjoy the story and the inspiration and have a Great Day and Weekend.

WHEN YOU THOUGHT I WASN'T LOOKING


When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you hang my first painting on the refrigerator, and I immediately wanted to paint another one.

When you thought I wasn't looking saw you feed a stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind to animals.

When you thought I wasn't looking, saw you make my favorite cake for me and I learned that the little things can be the special things in life.

When you thought I wasn't looking I heard you say a prayer, and I knew there is a God I could always talk to and I learned to trust in God.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you make a meal and take it to a friend who was sick, and I learned that we all have to help take care of each other.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you give of your time and money to help people who had nothing and I learned that those who have something should give to those who don't.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you take care of our house and everyone in it and I learned we have to take care of what we are given.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw how you handled your responsibilities, even when you didn't feel good and I learned that I would have to be responsible when I grow up.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw tears come from your eyes and I learned that sometimes things hurt, but it's all right to cry.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw that you cared and I wanted to be everything that I could be.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I learned most of life's lessons that I need to know to be a good and productive person when I grow up.

When you thought I wasn't looking, I looked at you and wanted to say, "Thanks for all the things I saw when you thought I wasn't looking."

Friday's funny......


NEW CAR

 A man and his wife were driving through country on his way from New York to California.


Looking at his fuel gauge, he decided to stop at the next gasoline station and fill up. About 15 minutes later, he spots a Mobil station and pulls over to the high octane pump.


"What can I do for ya'll?" asks the attendant. "Fill 'er up with high test," replies the driver. While the attendant is filling up the tank, he's looking the car up and down.


"What kinda car is this?" he asks. "I never seen one like it before."


"Well," responds the driver, his chest swelling up with pride, "This, my boy is a 1999 Cadillac DeVille."


"What all's it got in it?" asks the attendant.


"Well," says the driver, "It has everything. It's loaded with power steering, power seats, power sun roof, power mirrors, AM/FM radio with a 10 deck CD player in the trunk with 100 watts per channel, 8 speaker stereo, rack and pinion steering, disk brakes all around, leather interior, digital instrument package, and best of all, a 8.8 liter V12 engine."


"Wow," says the attendant, "That's really something!"


"How much do I owe you for the gasoline?" asks the driver.


"That'll be $30.17," says the attendant.


The driver pulls out his money clip and peels off a $20 and a $10. He goes into his other pocket and pulls out a handful of change. Mixed up with the change are a few golf tees.


"What are those little wooden things?" asks the attendant.


"That's what I put my balls on when I drive," says the driver.


"Wow," says the attendant, "Those Cadillac people think of everything!"
