ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
The moments of our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades. May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks, and boring grays of your every day.

Life is a Special Occasion!

Today is National Goof Off Cay which is a day to procrastinate. It’s a day to relax, do fun stuff and forget about work, chores and all the duties no one really wants to do.
Goof Off Day encourages us to take some time to be silly, waste an hour or two, and do something a bit different.
To celebrate today neglect your work, sit back and just do what ever you like to do for a whole day! It’s time to step back from the pressures of every day life.
Today is also World Water Day which raises awareness about the state of sustainable fresh water resources around the world.
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
The time to relax is when you don’t have time for it.
Sydney J. Harris
While Sundays are usually my day to rest and relax, I may just take today to goof off. It’s been a busy week so I could use the day to do just that.
There is a lot I can do that isn’t actually work. They say when you love what you are doing, it really isn’t work at all. There are a lot of things I love to do, but there are also somethings, I’m going to put off until next week. The house could use a good vacuuming, but that can wait. It isn’t really terrible, if you don’t look too close. Ha!
I’ve got some really good books to read thanks to a couple of gift cards to Amazon that I got for my birthday. And because I’m working on a Spring painting project, I’ll probably spend a couple of hours on that too. It’s something that is fun and I enjoy doing it too!
Goofing off now and then is good for you, your body, and your soul.
For fast acting relief try slowing down.

I hope you all have a FANTASTIC Friday!

Almighty and eternal God,
Protect our military

with the shield of your strength,
may the power of your love
enable them to return home in safety
that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.
AND bless our Police Officers, Firefighters
and Paramedics and EMT’s
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!

Goofing off now and then is good for you!
Yes, goofing off is indeed good for a person, I believe. Enjoy those books, MA. Books are my favorite kind of gift. Love, Andrea xoxo
Relax and good off. Good to have a day for it! Take care. Hugs to you.
Relax and GOOF off I mean! Ha! Spell check does not want us to Goof off! 😊
I love how you count down the days to the next season! My heart will do a happy leap when you get to fall!
I started to say I don’t goof off very much and then I realize that’s what I do for the first hour or more every morning. Or nearly every morning!
I sit up in bed with my coffee - as I am doing this very minute - and listen to the birds sing through the open back door. I read, pray, and visit my friends in the World of Blog and slowly ease into my day. One of my favorite scriptures is: “Thou makes the outgoing of the morning and evening to rejoice.” Ps. 65:8 Two special occasions to celebrate each and every day!
A spring painting project? I’m intrigued.....will be looking forward to seeing it!
Wishing you a good weekend!
I think I'll goof off for a bit before I start my work day! I do agree, if you enjoy doing something, it doesn't seem like work at all. So many good books out there! Always fun to look on Amazon and see what they have available in them too!
betty
National Goof Off Day? How cool is that? I'd be happy to honor it.
I'm not particularly intelligent, but could probably get my Masters degree in goofing off! Gotta say, yours are some of the cutest coffee/tea mugs I've seen. Sooo many good books these days; it's hard to choose!
