Friday - are you planning to SMILE?

OK... I'm feeling a bit on the bossy side this morning.

A year ago today my life changed because I was being "nice". I was listening and following direction of everyone. I was not questioning the "powers who be". What have I learned?

Oh probably NOT MUCH! It's just my personality! I was taught as a child to respect people in positions of authority. (This does not always work well in life)

As I started this post... my plan was to get bossy and DEMAND some SMILES TODAY. Seemed like a good idea a moment ago. But now, I feel badly for being bossy and pushy. lol

SEE that's ME! Now I need to apologize for doing that. I can't even recall how many times I've said "I'm sorry" in the last year.

So... I hope you find a moment to SMILE and/or LAUGH today! (But you don't have to)

Well, looks like the real bumbling me has come out in this post. You may read it and LAUGH OR SMILE. You may read it and think, "poor thing, she's really losing it now."

I'm not sure which option to choose myself!

Happy Day to my friends,
Hope it's full of SMILES for us all.
HUGS,
Vicki

" Had many smiles at quilting today - we are a rowdy group and are so good for each other. Worked on my project for Vegas and even finished one.
Have a great smily weekend all.

Hugs, Valerie "

" Not planning on it, but I know I will when I get my babes from school. I miss them when they're gone all day. That being said, I am also dreading summer vacation lol, I won't get the breaks I do now. During the day I can watch whatever I want, sleep if I want, cry and sob and have a meltdown if I want, go out by myself, or go out with friends, go grocery shopping by myself...but once summer vacay hits, I'll be stuck with them 24/7 haha! But I am excited for camping, we already have 3-4 camping trips planned! "
