If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
It was on this date in 1863 that auto maker James Ward Packard was born in Warren, Ohio. Packard designed and built Packard automobiles in Warren before moving the manufacturing to Detroit. In September, 1900, the Ohio Automobile Company was founded to produce Packard autos. Since these automobiles quickly gained an excellent reputation, the name was changed on October 13, 1902 to the Packard Motor Car Company. About 1.7 million of these cars were made before production ended in 1958
Well done is better than well said.
Benjamin Franklin
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
When the grass looks greener on the other side of the fence, it may be that they take better care of it there.
Cecil Selig
It seems there has always been someone that thinks of a better way to do things. Packard wasn’t the first auto maker, but he thought his way was better.
I like to think that in someway or somehow, I can make each new day a little better than the day before. Maybe yesterday wasn’t quite so good, I’ll try and make this day better.
I tend get out of sorts when things don’t go right and for me it’s often better to just stop what I’m doing and give it a little time before starting again. There have also been times that I just forget about the whole idea and start something new.
New things are often good and we find we are motivated when we try something we haven’t done before. It might just be a better idea.
I hope you all get a chance to try out a new idea and have a terrific Tuesday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
Old times never come back and I suppose it's just as well. What comes back is a new morning every day in the year, and that's better
George E. Woodberry
I have counted at least 3 things I'm thankful for this past year and have now reached my 1000 gifts. I'm not stopping, but will continue on counting. There is always, always something to be thankful for.
1103. for new ideas
1104. for better ways to do things
1105. for those that try to make the world a better place
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Lord, hold our troops in
your loving hands.
Protect them as they protect us.
Bless them and their families for the
selfless acts they perform for us
in our time of need. I ask this in the
name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT's
GOD BLESS YOU !
Different isn't always better, but better is always different.

Totally agree, Ma, that sometimes we have to step away from something if it isn't going the way we want it to and then come back later after we've had some time to reevaluate it. I find myself doing that when I'm having trouble understanding a word a doctor is dictating. Often I'll get up just for a minute and get a drink of water and try to clear my mind, then come back and usually 9/10 times can understand what is being said.
