We had a little phrase often said in our family: You get what you get.
In general, this meant that if mom (me) were passing out Popsicles and you got an orange one and didn't want orange you would hear the phrase 'You get what you get.' Orange, or nothing, you decide.
The last time I remember hearing this phrase was when my brother-in-law saw my kids with Popsicles and asked for one. One of the kids brought it out to him, but he didn't want that color. I heard my words come out of my kid's mouth. "You get what you get!".
He opted for nothing.
I have no idea why I am remembering this particular phrase at this moment.
This morning we learned that THGGM's brother died in his sleep last night. He was 44. An autopsy will be done on Monday to determine the cause of death. We know nothing more than that.
If you know us, please pray.

Only 44! One of my friends' daughter is getting married next weekend and her mother-in-law-to-be died unexpectedly in HER sleep LAST weekend! She wasn't much older than THGGY's brother...no known health problems. Karen hasn't told me if they've found anything from the autopsy yet, either. Wow, Judy...what a shock! Dear Hubby and I will definitely keep you in our prayers, too. (((((HUG)))))
