This Sunday Post reminded me of something – “There is no such thing as problems – only opportunities for blessing.” OK, the guy that said that *was* a little weird, but still. Good reminder, Susie! Hope today is a good day!! 🙂
squirl, that’s kinda how I roll, for as long as I can remember. Some gifts are tougher than others to recognize, though.
shari, or herpes. Sorry, that’s always what I think of when I hear that expression, courtesy of a former client.
bucky, a useful command to learn: “Put that silly thing away!”
I love you, back kellikins. And thank you for sharing your gifts.
joyce, happy day, and I’m hoping for all to go well for your and yours today 🙂
lawyerchik, this blog is full of evidence that just because someone is weird doesn’t mean they can’t occasionally say something meaningful. 😉
kc, that is so sweet. I wish and I hope I have that gift. I surely do value it when I encounter it in others. (Like you!)
mrB, like, “My child is in the turded and talented program?” Yea, no, I hadn’t noticed that.
michelle, you like polka dots as much as you like ladybugs? Or you like polka dots as much as ladybugs like polka dots? Because they do, you know. And I love both polka dots and ladybugs!
shawkey and mrB, interesting. I felt a little lonely here yesterday. Plus, I wondered what was up when my 80ish bloglines links said that NO ONE had posted anything new. I know Sundays are slow, but that was crazy.
And shawkey, that gift was for LG. I am saving the box, though, because I like it. 🙂
Come to think of it, if I call my kid (in my mind only, of course!) a turd, then I’m really calling him a gift of God…
Goodness, this works both ways, doesn’t it?
Ooooooo….me likey polka dots. And presents. Happy Sunday, susie.
That quote is eerily accurate. Always be looking for what’s to be learned from your problems. No matter how big they are.
Many love and hugs to you, dear sister!
Yeah, and half the time the gift is one that keeps on giving… like, say, the flu. *heh* 😉
Happy Sunday, Sis!
“Every problem has a gift for you in its hands.”
This is precisely why I don’t date men anymore. They’re always waving their gift at me.
Everyone has a gift to give.
I love you Susiekins.
Happy Sunday.
*LOL @ Bucky’s man-gifts*
Happy Sunday, Sweetie! 😀

Let me guess…your gift is encouragement. 🙂
(And in such nice wrapping, too!)
Ever notice how “gift” can be interchanged with “turd”?
I hadn’t, but “turd” is such a great word.
How pretty! I adore polka dots almost as much as ladybugs! LOL. Enjoy your present!
Okay, I think it’s time to fire Bloglines. I was online yesterday and last night, but it didn’t tell me you had a new post up until this morning.
I hope that lovely gift was for you and that the box had something wonderful inside. Happy Monday!
*had the same problem Sharkey did with Bloglines*
htgt, me, too! And, you, too!

Hey, I was in the turded and talented program in high school!
Explains a lot, dunnit?
“Still turded after all these years” is my favorite song. 😛
Ah damn… I just remembered I have to buy a turd for a bridal shower I don’t want to go to on Saturday…
bucky, you have so many turds.
MoDis, now you’ve got me inserting “turd” into all kinds of songs. It’s not pretty.
ck, just let it slide. There will already be a whole pile of turds there.
cheez, I was writing a post with the word “gift” in the title. Now everyone will just think it’s crap.
I love that quote. I’m putting it up on my bulletin board at work.
I also think “turd” is one of the funniest words around.
Thanks to you, Mr B, I will never be able to read Romans quite the same way again…I’ll credit *you* when I burst out laughing in church next Sunday!
Come to think of it, if I call my kid (in my mind only, of course!) a turd, then I’m really calling him a gift of God…
Goodness, this works both ways, doesn’t it?
