When Bone Tired Is A Good Thing

11 Comments/ 529/ 1

Bone tired.

You have to know what that is like, right?

When you just don’t think you can take another step?

I know that turning 60 last week might have had an effect on me but Saturday I was bone tired. It was a good feeling after a day of volunteering but my body ached.

I shared last week that I was going to be part of a group that would be doing a food drive for a couple of our local charities in Brevard, NC. An idea was thrown out in a simple Facebook post and 2 weeks later the event happened and surpassed our dreams. Three determine women and their husbands along with many others came together and created an amazing visual display of love.

Don’t tell me that people don’t care.

Don’t tell me that there is no goodness in the world.

Don’t tell me it can’t be done.

Because it can.

And it was.

And it will be again.

Thanks to all who donated their time and money and canned goods — our hearts are overflowing with gratitude. Iam grateful to all of those essential workers, the grandparents who are filling in as teachers, the behind the scenes people who are packing up grocery orders and food orders for curbside pick up and more. YOU are what makes the bone tired me happy at the end of a day of a successful food drive. Good job.

If you know someone who deserves a thank you make sure to leave me a comment and I will send them a special card. Just let me know their name and what they are doing and I will private message you for the address. Everyone needs to know when they are doing a good job.

This short book was one that looked like it would be a fun read. I honestly did not enjoy it all that much---it was a lot of characters bickering and while some of the writing was witty and funny it was not that kind of book that made m...

This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
