Laugh at yourself. It tones your facial muscles and attitude. – Kelly Rudolph

So I’m posting this a day late not becuase I didn’t have time, but because life threw me a curve ball yesterday.  Honestly, it was a HUGE curveball.  In fact it sped past me, curved around and bopped me in the backside.  And I’ll be honest, it threw me for a loop.  There were a lot of little things that happened yesterday that bummed me out and then there were a couple of big things, and BAM.  I then proceeded to do everything wrong.  I wallowed, I didn’t look for positives, and I sure as heck didn’t laugh, and my attitude SUCKED.  But then I sat down and honestly looked at everything that had bummed me out, and really none of them were insurmountable problems.  I just magnified them and made them far worse than they really wore, and as such, I suffered.  By last night, I had turned it around, and I started looking at the things that had happened and finding some good in them.  Not everything is perfect, but you know what, life isn’t perfect.  Life is messy and complicated, joyous and happy and freaking fantastic and horrible all at the same time.  But I’m chosing to focus on all of those good things and not let the bad things get me down….at least not too much and for too long 🙂
