Life is a Special Occasion!
Hallmark
March 22nd. is National Goof Off Day. Now here's a day that just about everybody can relax and enjoy. It's a day to do anything and everything.....except what you're supposed to do today. Spend extra time surfing the net. Go out and spend the day window shopping with your favorite friend. Or, just read sit down and read a book or watch TV. This day is set aside for you to do anything you enjoy doing. It’s a chance to step back from the rigors and pressures of every day life.
If you happen to have a bad case of Spring Fever . . . or maybe you have Cabin Fever, this could be your remedy.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
The man who doesn't relax and hoot a few hoots voluntarily, now and then, is in great danger of hooting hoots and standing on his head for the edification of the pathologist and trained nurse, a little later on.
Elbert Hubbard
I’m of the opinion that taking a day just to goof off is a very good thing. Everyone needs a day off. I’m enjoying some great days here and have been doing a lot of goofing off. Take the time to let loose and de-stress, it's good for your heart and for your soul!
Of course I don’t work much on most days, but when you’re away from home you have even less to do. Believe it or not sometimes it can be tough not doing anything. There are those that say I’m goofy anyway and today I’ll be proving they are right. I’ll be doing lots of goofing off.
Today’s pictures are of the buds on my Star Magnolia Bush, the buds are huge. If we have some warmth and sunshine it won’t be long at all and it’ll be blooming.
I hope you al have a super Saturday and can take some time out just to goof off.
COUNTING MY GIFTS
How beautiful it is to do nothing, and then to rest afterward.
Spanish Proverb
I have counted at least 3 things every day that I'm thankful for this past year and have now reached 1500 gifts. On my way to 2000. I'm not stopping, but will continue on counting. There is always, always something to be thankful for.
1508. for a day just to goof off
1509. for a visit with long distance family
1510. for the internet keeping us all connected
Enter into His courts with thanksgiving — and in His presence is fullness of Joy!
PRAYER FOR OUR TROOPS
Please pray for God's protection of
our troops and HIS wisdom for their
commanders.
Lord, hold our troops in
your loving hands.
Protect them as they protect us.
Bless them and their families for the
selfless acts they perform for us
in our time of need. I ask this in the
name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT's
GOD BLESS YOU ALL !
Never be afraid to sit awhile and think.
Lorraine Hansberry, A Raisin in the Sun
A little smile, a word of cheer,
A bit of love from someone dear…
Love,

Glad to see the buds on the tree! I like a Goof Off Day! I'll be taking a few days off next week so I'll make sure some of that time will be for goofing off!
