Being a hard worker doesnt mean you will be treated fairly. Its all about personality.

If at first you don't succeed, try again..then give up. No sense being a darned fool about it.

Enjoy the time you have with your family. There will always be cleaning to do, but they will be grown and gone before you know it.

Hurt me with the truth...but never comfort me with a lie.

Theres scorpions here, too. I found one in my bed one time.

When I was a kid living in northern Idaho a friend and I were digging around on the side of a hill near our house and found one. It was a big one, about 3 in. long. We told our parents and they said youre seeing things. Theres no scorpions in northern Idaho. We even told our teacher, he said the same thing. But we saw it, it was the real thing.
