I like that quote. Sue.

I've been watching the results coming in and the people talking about it.

Why is it, when I want to stay awake, my eye-lids droop and I keep nodding off.
While the nights I am trying to get to sleep, everytime I close my eyes, a light comes on (in my mind) and I am fully awake again?

Off to my bed.

PS it would have worried me more if i'd still been living in Wales, because if that were to follow Scotland's lead ( if there is a yes vote) I think it would be a disaster.

I don't have a vested interest having only a dash of Scottish ancestry ( assuming the McDonald gt gt gt was from Scotland) . I'm rather on the fence, I worry about Nationalism generally because i think it can lead to isolationism and an 'us and them' state of mind, but then again, I have to weigh that against my Irish ancestry which leans me heavily towards independence for those countries that want it :-)

LOL Rose .....No!.......I was just reading quotes on Pinterest and liked this one :-D




mind you.....I am waiting with baited breath for the result.......I am hoping for a yes vote.....this will make some kind of ammends for my ancestor being shot for treason in the 1715 uprising......He died for the yes!

Pondering as I went......

Everything in your life is a reflection of a choice you have made. If you want a different result, make a different choice.
