I vow to do this dance everytime I feel grateful, no matter where I am!







and of course to laugh out loud!

I bumped into this video

Trust is definitely a lesson I want to work on. In the past, whenever I trusted someone, they always kicked me in the butt. I want to change that and only attract trustworthy people in my life.

I also found a website that has daily angel card readings that I want to share with you... http://www.angelmessenger.net/

Hope your day is filled with trust, abundance and of course laughter.

Olive peacefully died last Friday at 1:07 am. I knew she had heart failure and every week she endured going to the vet to get the fluid drained that was building up because of the disease. This past week she could no longer walk and stopped wagging her tail and screaming with joy when I came home. But she did perk up and watch my every move when I entered the room, which gave me hope that she still had quality of life. Thursday night she stopped eating and drinking water so I knew she was winding down.

My hubby and I discussed bringing her into the vet to let her go on Friday, so I decided to lay down on the floor and sleep with her. After a couple of hours she woke me up. She could barely sit up, but she looked over to her bed where her mate, Cooper was sleeping so I put her in next to him. She went peacefully within minutes surrounded by everyone who loves her. I wanted her to go that way so my prayers were answered and I am grateful that she passed here and not at the vets.

I still miss her desperately and I know her mate who lived with her many years longer than us misses her too. She was 18 yrs and lived a happy life with us. SHe had one of those personalities that attracted everyone, she always welcomed any new pets that joined out family and never showed jealousy. Olive you are one of the loves of my life and I am grateful to have shared it with you. xoxo mama

I am reading "Excuses Be Gone!" by Dr. Wayne Dyer. I picked it up at the library. I do not know what I would do if the libraries went away. There are so many great books that the library carries and for those of us who cannot always buy the books we want it is a godsend!

The show was fun and I made some money, got great feed back and met some nice people. I got another lead for another mercantile market in Tustin that I will follow up on. The weather was great and hot, the thermometer said 74 degrees but it felt hotter to me! Next Saturday the condo complex where my son, James lives is having a community yard sale. Friday I will pull out everything that I have not used in the last year and sell it. The rest will be donated to animal charities that are also having yard sales this summer.

Hope your week is fun and don't forget to laugh out loud!

Tomorrow is the big day! I have been putting on the finishing touches to the container gardens and if I do say so myself... they look darned good! My airplants arrived today and I am thrilled! They are as beautiful and exotic as the pictures described. Now I know I must order at least a month before I need them.

If you live in Orange or LA County and want something to do... stop by the Mercantile Market at Carpe Diem Experience, Fullerton , CA. The address is 115 South Harbor Blvd. The vendors are in the parking lot in back of the store. I of course will be selling my containter gardens and there will be other fantastic vendors too... lots will be hand-made from the artists. Hope to see you there!

Have a fun weekend and don't forget to laugh out loud!

Sunday Funnies!

The outdoor market was a success. There were not as many vendors and customers as I hoped, but I made a profit and I am happy. I also got a lead for a festival in La Habra, called the Avocado Festival, May 22nd. I will call tomorrow to sign up. Meanwhile I bought more plants and I am having fun with them. I really am excited because one of the reasons we moved down here was so I could have my own business and selling at outdoor markets is a start!

I have been practising the techinques in the book "You Can Heal Your Life" and I really believe it is working. I am changing my thoughts and manifesting what I want not what I do not want. I must admit there are some days that are more challenging than others. I am still working on this job thing. The chiropractor is not giving me nearly as much work as I thought... John says that maybe I am really not supposed to be working there and to focus on my business. I wish I could find a part time job Monday through Friday though... I would feel more secure. But I do not want to dwell on that and focus on the positive and be thankful for what I have!

I really am lucky to have a supportive family!

I am thankful to have good health!

I am thankful I made a profit yesterday!

I am thankful to get information about the coming festival!

I am thankful I have a comfortable home!

Hope your weekend was full of laughter!

My car is packed and ready for tomorrow's mercantile fair. If you are in the area check it out. I will be at Lamb of God Church, 621 Sunkist Street, Anaheim. The fair runs 8-1 pm. I will be the 6 foot redhead selling fabulous goodies and of course some of my container gardens. Hope your weekend will be filled with laughter and fun adventures!

I almost forgot... Happy Earth Day! Shouldn't we honor Mother Earth everday? Have you noticed? She has been trying to get our attention these past few months...
