LIFE IS LIKE LEFTOVERS

With all the leftover Thanksgiving turkey and the trimmings, it brought to mind some thoughts on life. So much goes into preparing for a large family feast, the shopping, the cleaning, the cooking, the serving and the cleanup. Like life, we busy ourselves with so many activities like saving for a trip, paying off a mortgage, downsizing- well you get the picture. Lots of work and activity then when all is said and done- time to stop and reap the harvest so to say. Enjoy all the hard work. Enjoy the leftovers- our leftovers. Time to breath after all the preparation. Feeling the muscles in the body from the scrubbing and stretching that comes with cleaning. Eating pie for lunch- especially pumpkin pie with whipped cream. I know there are people that would say retirement feels a lot like that!! The leftovers from a life of hard work. As we all know, leftovers are quite good if prepared the way we like them.
