While Piled In Among the Quilts and Dogs.....

Do you enjoy a good quote?  I have them stashed in journals, I write them on an old chalkboard that hangs in the kitchen, on bits of paper, placed behind old windows that hang on my walls.  They touch my heart, remind me I/we are never alone.  An ordinary  person, strikes into that vein of genius and with such economy of words - they are discovered, landing squarely into my heart.  On occasion, quotes come at the perfect moment.  Written with such succinct precision, I find myself glued to their thought - kind of in awe of how THIS quote found me at just the right moment.
The best finds are very funny quotes.  How I miss Erma Bombeck.  We were kindred spirits, me and about 2 million other women.   
Today's stolen quote came from a precious friend from East Tennessee (Go Vols).  Thank you Norris, it came on the wings of angels.  At this writing, they are working missionaries in a province in China. Sometimes you just gotta love the Internet : ) most of all, I love my friend, Norris and his wife, Sallie.  Thank you.
Mike, I loved the song you sent today.  You never fail to say and send the best things.  love to you my dear friend.

When God is about to do something great, he starts with a difficulty. When he is about to do something truly magnificent, he starts with an impossibility.

It is a chilly night in Abq.  The dogs will be running in and out quickly to do their business.  Enjoy your Saturday -- may it include just a bit of extra sleep and a good breakfast to follow!  love kathryn
