smiley sunday!

a wee while back i used to post more regularly.

then this crazy thing called life, took a dive for the ground

and i stopped.

but i missed blogging.

its not that i dont want to.

i just dont have a lot of free time.

between going to school, and working two jobs, one being full time, i honestly

just do not have much ME time.

happy me time.

my weekends are often filled with running errands, working and just doing all the

usual things that everyone does. you know, like,

laundry,

dishes,

floors,

organizing,

paying bills,

grocery shopping....(i actually love this one)....

but before you know it, my weekend is over

and it's back to

the dreaded work environment.

but anywho,

a while back, i started smiley sunday. it was

just simple things that make me smile

and with that, i try to embrace what little time is left of the weekend.

a girl in the work kitchen the other day, said, something like, oh, it's almost friday....

i was like, uhhh yayyy! hooorayy. yippeee skippeee!

and then she said 'isnt it awful how we just wish our life away'....'instead of just embracing today'....

hmmm. well there's a thought.

embrace.

today.

so my little bloggies, i want you to stop what you are doing...

well, dont stop reading this....

but when you are done....

think about it....

be HApPy for TOday.

EMBRACE what is going on in your life right now.......

the sad thing is that we never know if this is our last day here.....so why live it wishing for

tomorrow, or the weekend, or whatever....

and just be happy at the present!

so to make you smile, here's a few lovelies that made me smile today....
