HAVING SOME GOOD OLE FUN AND HOPEFULLY MANY CHUCKLES.. ENJOY!!

 Well folks, I am not trying to go back on my goal, which is to :
Not count the days, but to make the days count! But at the same time, ..... I will say.. I love the warmer weather! Okay, so shame on me.. Don't get me wrong, I am making the best I can each day (which means some days to go to  work, (and am thankful for my job) but then back to a warm house and "hunker down" lol) And when it's necessary that I or we go out here or there.. we go.. but, it's sooo much easier and more pleasant to me when the weather is warmer! Lol To many others.. they may prefer the cold weather.. and they can have and enjoy it! I'm not judgin' or begrudgin'.. I'm just saying.. you enjoy what you like, and I'll enjoy what I like! lol Now all of this is just me being silly.. Hope you sense my humor.. Love and prayers!

Laughter, some said it's the best medicine in the world.

So start smiling and laughing as much as you can. Have a hearty laugh over every amusing situation. Laugh even at yourself and smile at the simplest pleasures in your life.

With smiles and laughter, your days will become lighter, more joyous and more bearable even on those hay-wired days. Your smiling face looks much more appealing and beautiful too.

Give away your smiles freely and in abundance. Spread your laughter around as it's contagious.

Enjoy these smile and laughter quotes!

A smile costs nothing but gives much. It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give. It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None is so rich or mighty that he cannot get along without it and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away. Some people are too tired to give you a smile. Give them one of yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.

okay, on this pay it forward idea that I have signed into.. I posted the message below on fb.. I've had 3 takers so far..  But just to make sure they know and really agree.. they were Yolanda Ward, Connie Fenton, and Brenda Thompson (LET ME KNOW FOR SURE IF YOU ARE IN, please)

After all the recent tragedies that have happened and are happening, this world needs as much kindness as it can get. I'm participating in the 'Pay it Forward' initiative: the first five people who comment on this status with "I'm in" will receive a surprise from me at some point in the next calendar year - anything from a book, a ticket, something homemade, a postcard, absolutely any surprise! There will be no warning and it will happen when the mood comes over me and I find something that would suit you and make you happy.
These five people must make the same offer on their Facebook status. Once my first five have commented "I'm in" I will forward this message to you privately, so that you can copy and paste it, and put it on your status, (don't share it) so that we can form a web of connection of kindness.
Let's do more nice and loving things in 2015, without any reason other than to make each other smile and show that we think of each other. Here's to a more enjoyable, friendly, and love filled year ENJOY IT AND FOR THOSE THAT COMMENTED ON IT.. AND WANT TO DO IT... REPOST, ENJOY AND "PAY IT FORWARD..
