IF THE ONLY PRAYER YOU SAID IN YOUR LIFE WAS "THANK YOU", THAT WOULD SUFFICE. ~Meister Eckhart

We win half the battle when we make up our minds to take the world as we find it, including the thorns. ~unknown

Today I am grateful...
  • that I have to keep up with my eyebrow maintenance, if not I will have a bushy uni brow. But THIS made me really, really, REALLY grateful.
  • for the serenity of the rustling wind last night accompanied by rain
  • for having lots of peaceful moments in my life
  • that today can be what I think it can be
  • that I have lots of friends that are all kinds of funny
  • that my cold seems to be wrapping up, but not so sure about my lungs. I am so prone to bronchitis. I am keeping a close eye on it.

Gratitude is one of the sweet shortcuts to finding peace of mind and happiness inside. No matter what's going on outside of us, there's always something we could be grateful for. ~Barry Neil Kaufman

1. I don't know why I saw "sweet shortribs" in the quote at the bottom but it made me hungry.
2. I too believe in thinking my way into a good day.
3. Can I be on the all sorts of funny list of friends? It's OK to take me off the blonde bombshell list and move me over.

Pam, you are definitely on the list. Both lists, in fact.

I, too, have to watch the unibrow thing. I tell people my mother was a monkey. Go figure..my dad was bald at 30. My 21 y.o. son checks his hairline daily trying to see which gene he got! Those pics helped me appreciate what I see in the mirror today!

I'm with you on the jello, dude.

I get my brows done by a pro-fessional.

Love the uni-brow comment. My older brother is blessed with having to pluck his! He is always telling me about it too!

The BLONDE bombshell list is fine with me. HEY, don't laugh, it could happen, a lift here, lipo there, lots of lipo there, etc.
