Spread your wings and fly away

Ironing has finally been finished, will put it all away tomorrow once I have sorted all the wardrobes and cupboards out!

My one in particular, I can;t get anymore t shirts in so really needs a good sort out!

Having watched a film and several crap tv shows, eaten dinner and caught up on here, I am now heading off to bed to curl up and read a chapter or two, or maybe just sleep

See you tomorrow!

Asked if anyone knew of a poem that a friend was asking me about earlier which Redleader kindly supplied and it turned out it wasn't that one.

However after a lot of searching I think I have found it and thought it would be appropriate to post here as well.

SOME PEOPLE
Some people come into our lives
and leave footprints on our hearts
and we are never ever the same.

Some people come into our lives
and quickly go... Some stay for awhile
and embrace our silent dreams.

They help us become aware
of the delicate winds of hope...
and we discover within every human spirit
there are wings yearning to fly.

They help our hearts to see that
the only stairway to the stars
is woven with dreams...
and we find ourselves
unafraid to reach high.

They celebrate the true essence
of who we are...
and have faith in all
that we may become.

Some people awaken us
to new and deeper realizations...
for we gain insight
from the passing whisper of their wisdom

Throughout our lives we are sent
precious souls...
meant to share our journey
however brief or lasting their stay
they remind us why we are here.

To learn... to teach... to nurture... to love

Some people come into our lives
to cast a steady light
upon our path and guide our every step
their shining belief in us
helps us to believe in ourselves.

Some people come into our
lives to teach us about love...
The love that rests within ourselves.

Let us reach out to others
and feel the bliss of giving
for love is far richer in action
that it ever is in words.

Some people come into our lives
and they move our souls to sing
and make our spirits dance.

They help us to see that everything on earth
is part of the incredibility of life...
and that it is always there
for us to take of its joy.

Some people come into our lives
and leave footprints on our hearts
and we are never ever the same.

I am applying for this

Good fun

I was determined that this time I was not going to cry.

Afterall I have an iron in my hand and I am determined to clear that ironing pile that is taking over the conservatory.

So I watched the film and then it happens - tears streaming down face and I am sobbing, can't help it, can't be a brave mum.

Except what made me smile was eldest watching film with me is also in tears, though trying very very hard to hold it all in until he sees me look then he is in the same sobbing state I am.

yes Armageddon just gets to me everytime!

Please can you help me

Does anyone out there know of a poem about meeting someone for a minute, or a short while or a lifetime, and they are here for that time for a purpose?

just been asked for it on another forum and can't seem to find it though it does sound familiar

Sorry it is vague

Thanks in advance.

It's raining again, in fact it hasn't stopped from yesterday and I have a pile of washing to get through and two very bored children.

We could go swimming and get even wetter, but that was met with a frown from both children so given up on that idea. My walks have gone out of the window and controlling a greyhound while holding an umbrella isn't much fun and anyway both dogs hate the rain and getting wet even with their doggy coats on.

So I have sat here for the last hour looking up control pants on the figleaves site to go under my wedding outfit to give me a 'nice silouhette' as recommended by Mr Gok

No luck on that front either as all the ones that I think are suitable are out of stock Damm!!

Ah well back to the drawing board better go and do some ironing
