Catching Up (05/08/29)

I ran into an old friend on Saturday. I managed to cover her with candy apple bits and an impulsive kiss. When I first moved out to Manitoba and wanted to live in 'Harrowsmith' countryside, she was the one who rescued me. It was an ice cold, desolate, wasteland. Literally. She would plow through two feet of snow to get me and take me to people......to civilization.

She was a life saver. She also taught me the 'essence' of prairie life.

Be neighbourly. You will have to call for help one day.

Be organized. It's a long way back to town for milk.

Be frugal. We always have something better to spend our money on!

Be creative. Winters are long and incredibly boring.

And love with all you've got, because nobody knows when your time is up.

Thanks Sharon.
