Life has been a series of ups and downs lately. But then, I think that’s what life is all about. We’re here to be tested. I just hope I’m getting good marks!

Today I’ll share a post from yesteryear that I posted on my blog called Writer in the Pines.

A Random Thought

A fact from the Old West is that a cowboy didn’t like to do any job that he couldn’t accomplish from the back of a horse. If the foreman asked him to dig post holes for a new fence, he would grumble/swear about it all day long, although he usually would do the job, however reluctantly.

Today I switched pharmacies, mainly because my new choice has a drive-up window (as well as longer hours–it’s even open weekends). You see, I don’t want to get off my horse.

It takes a few minutes and extra effort to park, get out of my car, go into the store, stand in line, and pay for my purchase. How much simpler it is to stay in my car at the drive-up window!

Some things never change.
