Give Me Five: Top Tweets of 2013!

As we approach the end of 2013, I looked back through my Twitter feed to find my top 5 Favorite Tweets of the year. Which I guess also qualifies this post as a Twitter Tuesday! It's like a two for one!

No extra charge! :) 

So here they are my top Five Tweets of 2013! 

A good reminder when things aren't going your way: 

1. Eventually all things fall into place. Until then laugh at the confusion, live for the moments, and know everything happens for a reason. (Tweeted by: Epic Women)

2. Life is God's Novel. Let Him write it. Isaac Bashevis Singer (Gods Daughters)

And for a good laugh:

3. You can't make footprints on the sands of time by sitting on your butt . . . and who wants to make butt prints? (Oprah World) 

And you know I have to have something about Books in here:

4. The more you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go. Dr. Seuss (CES Inc)

And one for the New Year:

5. A new day. . . New Mercy & Grace, new possibilities and new opportunities. . . think I'm gonna dive right on in!! (Darlene Zschech)

So here's to 2014! May it be a year of Joy & Happiness for all of us!! And may we have lots of great things to Tweet about! :)

Twitter Tuesday! Valentine Style!

Happy Valentines Day!

This edition of Twitter Tuesday is in honor of Valentines Day! So, I thought I'd share some Tweets with you that have to do with Love! :)

Brian Houston from Hillsong Church, Australia said this:

SING for your souls sake -
LAUGH for your spirits sake -
READ for your minds sake -
LOVE for your hearts sake!

And I Like this one from Love Quote Jones:

Dance like the photo isn't being tagged,
Love like you've never been unfriended,
& Tweet like nobody is following.

Here's one By: Epic Women . . .

Forever is composed of nows.
(Emily Dickinson)

And I have to say I Love this one by Funny One Liners! Remember all those "Love means . . . " Posters, cards, etc. :)

Love means never having to say anything
because you're both looking at your smart phones

Remember this next Tweet from The Notebook This Valentines Day & Every day:

Laugh as much as you breathe
and love as long as you live.

Twitter Tuesday!

I'm starting something new on the Blog, I'm calling it Twitter Tuesday! (Cute Logo the Hubby made for me huh?!) And today is the first installment! You know how much I LOVE Twitter! I even now have ALL my kids on Twitter! We are a Social Media loving family. (Well, except for Zach, who goes along just to appease us. We got him on Twitter, so he could keep us updated from Mt. Rainier last summer.) I follow Friends, Family members, Authors of Books I've read, some Celebrities & Politicians, other Bloggers I read, etc.

And it's not just for socializing. I must say I've learned from Twitter. The other day there was a question on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire that I got correct, because of Twitter. It was who said some famous quote, I knew it was Elenore Roosevelt, because I had seen the quote on, of all places, Twitter! I get my News from Twitter. Celebrity & Political gossip. And even get great deals from companies all on Twitter!

So at least one Tuesday every month (maybe more, as I see really great or funny Tweets!) I'm going to share them with you right here on the Blog! If you are on Twitter you can follow me here. So, welcome to Twitter Tuesday!

Since as I'm writing this it is the Chinese New Year, I thought I'd start by sharing something I Tweeted about this time last year, straight form a Fortune Cookie I ate that day:

"Be Quicker of Mind than of Tongue,"

And here's one from WomenOfHistory Inspirational Quotes that I just love:

"Well behaved women seldom make history."

This one comes from Greatest Quotes:

"Never let your memories be greater than your dreams." - Doug Ivester

And as we are starting out this New Year, I leave you with a Tweet from Oprah:

"Doing the best at this moment
puts you I the best place for the next moment."

Let's make our next moment, this New Year, our Best one yet!
