Because I'm the mom.....

Klennex that is. A whole box. Probably 5 taken out of the package BEFORE Jocelyn got her hands on it. It was quiet. Too quiet. I call her and she makes some little noise. I walk around the corner....and there she was, pulling each tissue out of the box and "blowing" her nose in each one. You can't very well stuff them back in the box, when they've been rubbed all over a toddlers face. And certainly not with the small risk that she might have actually gotten SOMETHING on one! That would just be gross. Ahhh........to be a toddler with nothing better to do than UNDO! :) And this to shall pass (although when it is as cute as this, sometimes I wish it wouldn't)!

What a title huh? The funny thing is, I like that title. I like it that people see me and think of Happy Living! :) What an honor. So what does a GURU do? Um....not sure, will get back with you on that one. Maybe underground meetings with fun monkey hats? Secret hand shakes......and ALWAYS something yummy to eat. Cookies, dump cake, Rice Krispie Treats. That sounds like a good start. What else do I do? Maybe teach others how to have happy living? :) I don't know, but I'll work on it! HaaHaaa........just another step to RULING the WORLD.....mwhaaaamwhaaaaaaaa!!!!

I've been working very hard at keeping a very positive mind set about life in general. I'm working at imagining how I want my life to look. I see very wonderful things happening. What I have found with this "new" thinking is that it is so easy to fall back into the "old" way of thinking. What do I mean? I mean, wanting to do nothing because things aren't the way I want them to be (YET)! Negative thinking when life isn't turning the way I wanted it to turn! What I keep reminding myself, is it isn't about how quickly we get there, but the journey! It is easy to apply this to a "real life" situation. There are two ways to get to one location. One is a "quick" trip, but it is flat and "surprise" free. The other, takes more time, but it has some hills and some wonderful scenery. Along the way, you have a few surprises, maybe wildlife. It takes a lot longer, but it is so worth the journey! I have to remember tha
