Since we are starting a new challenge period tomorrow, I thought we could start off with a few words of encouragement from Woman's World.
1. You are important.
2. There is so much good that you can do today.
3. Your inner light always shines bright.
4. You can make a difference.
5. You've got this.
6. Dare to dream, it makes great things happen.
I know that I always need a pick-me-up every day. Do you? Best of luck to us all on our new challenges!
FUN: Have you ever lived in a mobile home or camper?

BEVERLY: Thank you for a wonderful week and what a positive note to end the week on! I do like a positive thought in the morning to carry me through the day...thank you for so many to choose from.
Mobile home/camper. I have never even slept in one! My sister and her husband tried camping after decades away from it and opted to buy a used trailer and traded in his car for a truck to pull the trailer. They are fitting it out and decorating and soon going on a two week trip to Utah and will stay in parks here and there. She will read and draw and paint and walk and have a great time. Her trailer sounds divine the way she is decorating and fitting it out. Makes me almost envious BUT it is not something that I would need or use here  |

I always need to think of something encouraging to get me started in the morning.
Many, many yrs ago, when I was a teenager, my sister & her then-husband lived in a mobile home. I thought it was fun to visit them, spend the night & sleep on the couch that let out to a bed. I have never slept in a camper, I have only "camped out" in a rented cabin. DH says he got plenty of camping out when he was in the Army, & really has refused to do it since. I inherited a small camper from my late sister, I gave it to DS, he & his family used it for a couple of summers & then got rid of it. He & his wife are now talking of buying a motor home, if they do, maybe I will get my first experience of traveling with a camper.

Iv'e never lived in a trailer house, but I've stayed as a guest. DH and I had campers from the time we married. We did a lot of camping. Ours were slide in campers that fit in the back of a pickup. He had one when I met him, and later we got a new one. We also did a bit of tent camping too, mostly when we did some canoe trips down the Missouri River.

Good morning ladies.
Thanks for the positive quotes, Beverly and thanks for hosting us this week.
Growing up my family went camping every weekend during the summer. We even took it (not just for a weekend) on summer vacations on across country trips. I really enjoyed it. I keep thinking I would like to buy a tent to go camping out at the coast.

When DS was a toddler until he started kindergarten, we'd go camping (sleeping bags, tents) in the summer. A gazillion years later, I bought a piece of property and put an old camper on it until we had enough $ to build (which never came to fruition), so I lived in that older (I'm thinking it may have been from the 1950s, and this was 1989 into maybe 1990 or 91 or 92 at the latest) camper for a year or two before getting rid of the property and moving into a regular house... It was okay, but I wouldn't want anything like that for a permanent residence... I have stayed in mobile homes (owned by friends and/or relatives) that felt like permanent houses build on foundations...
