Live your life in such a way
that when your feet hit the floor in the morning,
Satan shudders and says...
'Oh crap...she's awake!!'

An Al-Anon friend sent this to me. She suggested that I post it above my computer.

I have to laugh for two reasons. First, I have all kinds of inspirational things posted above my computer on the wall and I wonder how she knew that.

Second, I'd love nothing more than to make Satan shudder at my presence. He's been a nuisance for far too long.

Quedarrius used to talk about him all the time and I'd tell him, "The Devil isn't welcome here. He can't come in. I'll kick him to the curb." It seemed to ease that poor boy's mind. Sometimes I wonder where that little guy is. I'm so afraid he's going to be the kid that falls through the cracks, that we hear about on the news.

Well, I'm told that my Darth Vader look at bedtime is aesthetically charming. I wasn't sure what the paradox meant by that as he's never seen my sleep mask but maybe he was trying to make me feel better about it. He always surprises me with back handed compliments. I really don't know how to take him at times. I just know I like him and that's all that matters.
