A stitch in time, saves 9

A few years ago I had 9 stitches in my right knee. And we took them out ourselves since we were going to be in the US at the time.
Same time as currently.





And today it has been 9 years.
Almost a decade.
And still going strong and getting better.
I've probably said this before in some form or another, but any relationship is work. If you don't put anything into it, what do you expect to get out?
The work has to come from both parties. Not just one.
All for one and one for all.
Or life will be lousy.

Money is no solution either, but don't get me wrong. A Lotto Max cheque would be very welcome in our house. But if you're not happy to begin with, money just makes that fact more evident, and life just gets worse.
But if you are happy, and happiness is a state of being and of mind, it's not something attained by external means, then money can enhance it. It's not the cause.
If you don't get what I just wrote. Then you've got some figuring out to do.
For us, we've figured it out. But we work at it all the time. Practice, practice, practice.

If the grass isn't green on your side. You've got to figure why it's not green, and then make it green. Can't keep looking for a perfect lawn, when you've got to find the tools to maintain the lawn in the first place.

I just got to figure out how to rid myself of those nasty grubs.
Every year they keep wrecking our lawn.



Forget Facebook, that's just a time waster.
Sitting down to watch a good movie, is where it's at.
