Little Blessings…..

I’ve been feeling a little ‘down’ for the last couple of days…

So, I’ve been taking note of all those small incidental things that raise a smile during the course of a day....

While shopping at Tesco this morning I saw something that made me smile…appealing to my definite OCD tendencies…

Mushrooms

I’d love to know who packed these! Did I buy them? Of course I did…& they will be going into a Chicken & Mushroom casserole tomorrow!!

I think my fellow early morning shoppers thought, as I chuckled out loud, that I was on day release from the asylum!!

The roses that Lee bought me for our anniversary are almost ‘over’, but one is still hanging in there, it was the last bud to open up & is now at it’s prime…

 


LSNED NAn email from my sister raised a chuckle too….entitled ‘What is a bucket seat?’

Nine on a motorbike?!!!…& that baby looks totally nonplussed at his mode of transport!!! I’m not sure which is worse..the bucket or the back-pack!!

…& I get panicky if the boys cycle without helmets!!!

Something that gave me reason to have a good long belly laugh on Sunday, was seeing this movie…

going_the_distance

 
A lovely feel good film, with one particular scene that made me cry with laughter for so long that I quite missed the next ten minutes of dialogue!

Drew Barrymore is definitely improving with age (whatever she appears in, I still see the little girl in the closet with ET!!) & Justin Long is just such a lovely ‘boy next door’ type.

Another one I’d recommend you see, but just watch out for that scene, it’ll have you doubled up!!

 

So, while the weather is still gloomy, I’m hoping my mood is lifting!

I’m having some quality time at my scrap desk today & that normally puts things to rights!

Thanks for dropping by…Don’t forget to leave a comment if you’d like to be in the draw for ‘Pass the Book’ on Friday & keep counting your blessings! :)

Sorry to hear you've been a bit down, and the weather doesn't help does it? Pleased to hear you found a few things to cheer you up. Must admit, I've never seen anyone chuckling over mushrooms in our local supermarket!

Ohhhhhhhhhhh those mushroom look awesome...I hate how they package them...all squished together and I can never see what is at the bottom of the carton!!!

I so want to see that movie and I could use some great long laughs....laughing is good for the heart!!

Hope the blues go away......HUGS to you!!! LOVE YOU!!!
