[Possibility Tips] A lemon, a lemon, a lemon: Does it mean anything?

Happy Veteran's Day to our vets and active duty military!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Visitor:

As a "yute," as Joe Pesci would say in the movie "My Cousin Vinnie," I learned from a silly friend (Tom) a silly way to say 11: a lemon.  I liked it a lot, and so it's become a regular part of my vocabulary: it's a lemon o'cock.  It's half past a lemon.  I could meet you there at a lemon thirty. 

As I age, this will become part of my legacy: grandma's so silly when she says 11.

But on this day--a lemon, a lemon, a lemon--I'm thinking: wow.  Some people would think that's a great description of this whole past year.  Some people, in fact, would embrace the concept of calling today and this year Three Times a Lemon.  (Thanks, Lionel Ritchie.)

So, if you're one of these people, I'd like to offer you some Lemon Aid. 

I'm sleeping in a warm, fluffy bed tonight.  You? 

I'm gonna eat at least twice today.  You? 

I'm gonna greet my husband, the greatest hubby ever, when he comes home tonight, and revel in our loving companionship.  And then there's the rest of my family and friends to enjoy.  You?

Washington may be a mess.  The global economy might be a roller coaster ride.  Our personal financial situations might be uncertain. 

But I woke up today. (I'm here.) The phone rang.  (I'm connected.) I helped someone. (I'm useful.)

Even lemons have seeds.  Plant some today, and see what grows for you tomorrow.

My heart is with you, and all of your yet-to-be-discovered possibilities!--Kim
