Day 7: Signs of the Glorious Fall
Ok so... one of the top 5 things I love more than anything is Halloween. Hell we had a Halloween wedding... I know the minute after my birthday (July 4th) the stores are itching to get the Fall holiday décor out.
As I was roaming the aisles of Michaels I saw this...
Halloween ribbons! Not much to most... overlooked by most but not me!
I saw this... squealed and realized the Fall holidays are approaching and that made me smile a lot.
Day Five: Disney to the Rescue
Today was a good day.. smiled a lot. But the one thing that made me happy to my very core was the information on this picture.
Can't wait to try it out.
Day 4: A Soggy One
Today was a baking day. This morning I woke up early to start with my cakes...and collected all the ingredients I needed. Only to realize I forgot to put the 18 count egg carton in the fridge last night. Nice.
So I asked the Hubs if he wanted to go for a walk to the nearby store to pick up some eggs. As we started to walk I heard a far away rumble of thunder.
"Don't worry, that is way far out. It won't rain," my husband said reassuring me. About five blocks away from our house it started to sprinkle.
" Don't worry it can't rain that much harder... it's sunny!" The Hubs said again, reassuring me. Then another block later it began to downpour. For those of you that don't live in Florida, this is common summertime weather.
Here we were about a half a mile from the store in the pouring rain. I was grumpy at first and then the Hubs said "You can't control everything...sometimes you just need to go with it." So I did. And I laughed the rest of the way to the store and back.
Sometimes going with it, really changes the perspective on an otherwise "bad" situation.
Day Three: Bottoms Up
So again today was not a thrilling day. I see a pattern here.. need to change that. Anyhoo...
The Hubs and I were cruising the grocery aisles, as hip 30 somethings do on a weeknight, and I saw a bit of my childhood hanging haphazardly in the chip aisle.
Remember these beauties ladies?!
Ok for those of you with a crappy childhood or.. you know.. a penis... these "magic" bottles were a staple in most girls' toy arsenal. Get this kids, the super thin milk (it's like BEYOND skim consistency) and watered down "juice" disappeared when the bottle was flipped back. That's some nostalgic sorcery right there, you guys!!
These "Magic Bottles" made me smile and think of a time when my baby doll's well being was the most important matter of the day. ::sigh:: Good times.
Day 2: Video Making Boo-galou
Ok here we are. I almost got stumped and it's only day 2, of 365.
Today I was a tad down in the dumps, but that's usual the day after my birthday... sorry I'm an only child. Surprisingly, I am not that only child-like except for a few things, like this. The day after the attention and hoopla I get kinda sad, silly I realize. Never said I wasn't a bit nuts.
So when I realized I needed an entry, I was trying to think of something that made me smile today. Since I was in front of my computer doing clerical stuff, nothing exciting, (and my dog was being a particular kind of asshole today) I decided to make my own smile inducing outlet.
So I attempted to make a video of our adventures at Dino World...
So here is Part 1, enjoy. I laughed my ass off making this.
Today I smiled because I really enjoyed making this video and realizing how ridiculous my husband and I are (in the best way). So sort of an extension of yesterday...enjoy.
365 day mission promise...Day One.
Today is my ::cough 32nd:: Birthday. And as with most people, your birthday is usually a day of reflection...and cake...and sometimes cocktails.
But recently I have realized something... I am sometimes a very negative person. As we all do, I sometimes let the little frivolous things in life darken my days and I start being Little Miss Rain Cloud.
Take time to realize that your complaints are like farts in a hurricane... they are useless and just plain pointless. Realize there are people out there with real problems and real complaints....much more pressing than the fact someone cut you off in traffic.
Negativity is like a disease, kids. It seeps in and eventually takes over your life. I refuse to let the seep happen anymore.
So here I am, adding another tumblr pebble to the sea of blogs but I'm making a promise to myself (and who ever else is listening)...
I will post at lease ONE thing a each day, that makes me smile.
I vow in the next 365 days to just be happy....bitches.
Day One (scroll down)
Day One:
Today, the shared sense of humor between my husband and I, made me smile.
My husband Chris asked me about a week ago,
"What do you want to do on your actual birthday?!"
Without hesitation I said, "Dino World."
Dinosaur World is a silly tourist spot I have seen a million times on our way to Orlando. I have always wanted to go there, and just never have.
So...I realized waiting is not my thing anymore, so we were going to go to Dino World. No matter how stupid it may have sounded.
With a smile, my husband said "Sounds fun!"
Most people would have rolled their eyes at such a request, but not my hubs. Even though we were the ONLY people at the park without kids, we spent my birthday gazing at plastic dinos and dodging imaginary threats...and having a generally amazing day.
