It Will Have You Smiling

Me and My Little Brother~HPIM0019-vi-001

M.J. and A.J. were at my home after school the other day and we decided to look at photos of them when they were younger. Well, I am proud to say this Grandma has no shortage of “GrandKidlet” Photos.

I think most ,if not all Grandparents have the need to boast and show off pictures now and again. We were doing a whole lot of, “Oh Wow, look at that one!”  “Awwwweee, what an adorable picture.” “I love this one.”  “This one is my favorite”. On and on it went.

It left the three of us with smiles, chuckles, laughter, love and lots of positive energy fluttering in the air.

We really did enjoy looking at all these precious memories and I hope you do too.

M.J. and A.J. are proud of their Bears they made while in my Daycare.

Oh, we did have tons of fun! Just maybe that is where my continued laughter and silliness comes in.

A Spiritual Tonic

10 Spiritual Tonics~

1. Stop worrying. Worry kills life.

2.Begin each day with a prayer. It will arm your soul.

3.Control appetite. Over-indulgence clogs body and mind.

4. Accept your limitations.

5. Don’t envy. It wastes time and energy.

6. Have Faith in people. Cynicism sours the disposition.

7. Find a hobby. It will relax your nerves.

8. Read a book a week to stimulate imagination and broaden your views.

9. Spend some time alone for the peace of solitude and silence.

10. Try to want what you have, instead of spending your strength trying to get what you want.    10 spiritual tonics

What a beautiful quote! This is how I felt power walking and running 5km/3miles this morning. I enjoyed the sunshine as it was colder out this morning.  I  hope you are able to enjoy beauty of our earth today.

Take time for you.

Blog of the Year 2012~5 Stars

boty-5star-thumb1

I want to say ‘thank-you’ to Ivon at  http://ivonprefontaine.com for nominating my blog  for Blog of the Year Award. Thank-you so much. I am honored! I now have ‘five stars’ and am thrilled.

I have met so many wonderful bloggers in the past year. Happy New Year and I wish all good things to come your way.

And here are the rules:

1 Select the blog(s) you think deserve the ‘Blog of the Year 2012’ Award.

2 Write a blog post and tell us about the blog(s) you have chosen – there’s no minimum or maximum number of blogs required – and ‘present’ them with their award.

3 Please include a link back to this page ‘Blog of the Year 2012’ Award – http://thethoughtpalette.co.uk/our-awards/blog-of-the-year-2012-award/and include these ‘rules’ in your post (please don’t alter the rules or the badges!)

4 Let the blog(s) you have chosen know that you have given them this award and share the ‘rules’ with them

5 You can now also join the award’s Facebook group – click ‘like’ on this page‘Blog of the Year 2012’ Award Facebook group and then you can share your blog with an even wider audience if you choose to

6 As a winner of the award – please add a link back to the blog that presented you with the award – and then proudly display the award on your blog and sidebar … and start collecting stars…

Yes – that’s right – there are stars to collect!

Unlike other awards which you can only add to your blog once – this award is different!

When you begin you will receive the ‘1 star’ award – and every time you are given the award by another blog – you can add another star!

There are a total of 6 stars to collect.

Which means that you can check out your favorite blogs – and even if they have already been given the award by someone else – you can still bestow it on them again and help them to reach the maximum 6 stars!

I have not put the nominees in any type of order and please understand there are so many awesome blogs that deserve this award. I worry I have forgotten someone.

I want to thank all my followers, readers and anyone that just takes a peek at my blog. I do apologize if I ever forget to thank anyone as it is not intentional. I appreciate you all. Thank you so much.

Here are the nominees  I have chosen for the ‘Blog of the Year 2012:
