To live a long and happy life

Know God, pray, follow His teachings, seek inspiration.
Find your purpose in life.
Give of yourself, your time and talents.
Pay your blessings forward.
Look for the good, be positive.
Like yourself. If you don't like you, why should anyone else?
As Dolly Pardon said, "Find out who you are and do it on purpose."
Give 110% in any relationship.
Honor vows.
Keep in touch with family and friends.
Laugh with others, not at them.
Be a positive role model, encourage others.
Stand up for what you know is right especially when it is unpopular.
Share lessons learned in life with others.
Always move towards a goal, never give up.
Play, pray, persevere.
We only get each moment in life once, use/spend the time wisely.
Right now is the beginning of the rest of your life, what are you going to do with it?

Honey Do?


Do you have a “honey do list” at your home?

I often have a standing honeydew list of things to do in my household.
The list of things on the honey do list is much simpler for myself someone else.
My list for a day, usually includes three items or less.
However, if I am leaving the list for someone else, I go into more detail.

Here are some examples. It can be as simple as

Cook
Clean the counter
Sweep the floor
Pickup living room
 Make the bed
Wash clothes

However, for someone else, the list is more complex.

Pickup the living room becomes
Remove unnecessary items from side table
Clean side tables
Polish furniture
Clean entertainment/curio center
Clean TV center
Vacuum carpet
Vacuum/clean hardwood floor hardwood.

Wash clothes becomes a whole another thing

Wash white underwear, dry underwear
Wash towels, dry underwear, put up underwear
Wash jeans, dry towels, fold towels
Dry jeans, put up towels
Fold jeans, put up jeans

So what is on your honey do list?
Care to share?
