While in South Haven, we checked out some of the cute little shops. They had a lot of wooden signs containing great words of wisdom in those cute little shops. I will now share some of the ones that particularly touched my heart. Of funny bone.
Friends are the family we choose for ourselves.
I no longer skinny dip, I chunky dunk.
Wine a little, you’ll feel better.
Friends bring out the beautiful things in each other that nobody else looks hard enough to find.
Laundry today, or naked tomorrow!
It is what it is.
Enjoy this moment, this moment is your life.
They say friends are hard to find. Luckily, I know where you live.
Thou shalt not whine.
By the sea, we forget to count the days.
and my personal favorite,
God doesn’t give us what we can handle, God helps us handle what we are given.

I’m a big fan of “it is what it is”. This is a variant of one of my grandfather’s favorite expressions – “let’s call a spade a spade”

Donaldo just used ”it is what it is” when we were up north with the miserable weather. So I kept saying it everytime I was tempted to whine. Gotta start using it again-been whinning too much . I love the one you told me in church today “friends are the family we choose for ourselves.” And the last one is great “God helps us handle what we are given.” I like all of these. Glad you wrote them out.

Those are awesome! Some new ones I haven’t seen before.
This one I like just came to mind:
Friends welcome, relatives by appointment.

chunky dunk! lol….these are all good!
Did you mean “wine a little”…..or “whine”….guess it doesn’t matter, they both would work.
