What brought this on?

 

I've said it before, John. You are one of the most giving and caring person I have had the pleasure to know.
May God rain blessings down on you and your family.
Thank You!

 

Amen John... great advice for anyone here. In these trying times, at least we have each other. Not you and me... I dont mean it that way... :lol: I mean all of us, as thephins.com family! :up:

 

sorry to you and your wife, about your loss bro.....................

 

Good advice John and we need to be reminded of it every once in a while. Helps me gain perspective on the crap that is going on in my life right now. Thank you.
:bighug:

 

Thank you brother John.

We are a bigger than ourselves because we are part of something bigger than ourselves.

For me, it is this family here and so many other things that don't have do with material objects that make me who I am.

 

just remember. God has a sense of humor. He might send a pigeon to "rain his blessings"

BTW Awesome sig:up:

 

Ohhh...Al....

 

Nice vibe FFiC (John), thephins has such a solid community feel that in many ways when old friends log in and post, a small "Norm!" from Cheers springs to mind.

 

Not to John. He'd just get blessings.

Thanks to Jason (inflames ) for my sig and avi.
He does a wonderful job.
I think my avi is the best of all. :up: I'm not biased or anything. :lol:

 

That's good.
How about "I'll Be There For You" from Friends?

 

I think this and so many other comments on here ring true. I am packing to celebrate my parents' 50th anniversary. They are taking the whole family (15 of us) on an Alaskan cruise. My brother and I chose to fly out early and enjoy Seattle for a few days prior to the trip. My parents want to pay our hotel there, as they are paying for the cruise and many of the family member's airfare (not mine!). I told my dad, I don't have a lot of money, but I don't spend much money except on necessities and bills, so I save a lot. He told me, "When you didn't have any money you spent it like you did. I'm glad I've gotten to see you grow up even more."
I think we're going to have a great time. I don't see so much as I'd like of my nephews, so I paid for and scheduled a boat for them to go salmon fishing with my husband and two brothers. I don't think that's material, just family fun.

 

Hope you have a wonderful time with your family.
Just enjoy!
Tell us all about it when you get back.

I've always wondered "why" FFic when :'s are added equals: :ffic:

Now I know, he's actually George Wendt...:wink2:

 

You got it, Deb :hi5:

 

better than being the mailman....

 

ahhh, FFIC is back! Alright I was worried. Thought I might have to go to Cali and do an intervention

 

Indeed. When a loan modification specialist wants to come over to do an intervention, that's not a good thing....:wink2:

 

hey i love Cliff!

also Have a great weekend also John!

 

Great words John, thanks for the motivational post. Things are tough all over and many of us are struggling to keep what material things we have in these trying times. But family and friends are priceless.
