"It is our choices...that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities."-Albus Dumbledore a.k.a. J.K. Rowling
I suppose I should have limited the contest to non-family members, except then I think it would have been a really lame contest.
I have the sneaking suspicion most of my readers are also members of my family.
SOOO that would have upped the odds for you three non-family readers out there.
Don't worry though, Mr. Right wasn't allowed to know who submitted the quotes. He just choose the words of wisdom he wasn't mortified to attach on every email he sends.
His second choice was one of Squishy's:
Even if you're on the right track, you will get run over if you just stand there. - Arthur Godrey
You guys are really funny too I might add. My favorite was the cheese quote. Ha!
Age doesn't matter unless you are a cheese. - Billie Burke
One of you even quoted Mr. Right:
"Joint compound covereth a multitude of sins." - Mr Right
That was very strategic by the way. I asked him, "Honey, did you really say that? You're so clever."
He said, "Yeah I said it" then he rolled his eyes, "but your dad said it first."
Clever? maybe not, but at least he's honest.
When life gives you lemons smile politely and when life isn't looking...throw them away.
Mr. Right said the lemon quote should be on my email's tag line. What does he mean by that? I'm not going to ask him - I don't want him to have to be honest.
And guess what? I'm glad it's over. You have no idea how hard it was to post something every day.
Well, based on how often some of you post (like every four weeks if we're lucky) you probably do know how hard it is.
And since this IS my blog - I'm now going to share my favorite quote...which none of you submitted or it probably would have won.
Luck is not chance, it's toil; fortune's expensive smile is earned. -Emily Dickinson
