Allergies are killing me, but I still stop to smell the flowers.

...and they smell simply delightful.

When life gets a little crazy, I remind myself that its easy to find pleasure in little things.  These are a few ways I've combat stress lately:

remembering the little girl I told to "run as fast she could"
& her responding she didn't want to get a ticket
 

These coasters at Francesca's: "All I want is an umbrella in my drink."

forgetting my rain jacket
& remembering I'm washable

the soft purr as Zuzu comes to life
(I finally named my scooter)

doggies barking at me as I scoot past them at the park
& barking back at them

smiling and waving at strangers

them thinking I'm crazy,
but probably making them smile too

beeping (and getting beeped at) by fellow scooterists

bright yellow flowers, still fresh after a week!

the sparkle in my engagement ring

looking at my suntanned legs and toes (thanks self-tanner!)

taking different routes to the places I go on a daily basis


this little guy snuggling up to me
 learning how to say "lookin' good" in sign language
& doing it every day in the mirror

Feel free to add your own!
