DON'T WORRY

Be happy! As Bobby McFerrin sang, "In your life expect some trouble. But when you worry you make it double" So many things that we worry about don't even happen. But, we make ourselves miserable in the process of WORRYING! I don't' think that Bobby McF is telling us to ignore our problems but, rather, to just handle things without getting all wrapped up in a tangled mess of worry. Worry can paralyze you. If you just stop worrying and HANDLE things, the trouble won't double. Baby steps. Whatever is worrying you right now; can you just set that worry aside and take care of what you CAN control?? What one thing can you do right now to stop worrying??? Do it! Don't worry! Be happy! Oftentimes the way we handle crisis indicates our true character! Love you, friends.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY

Today my Nephew Aaron & Niece Rachel celebrate their 1^st Anniversary. It fills my heart with joy! Congratulations to you two! Here’s wishing you many, many more years of wedded bliss. I’m going out right now and decorate your pink flamingo fence with little top hats and veils! I think back to a year ago today and remember sitting in the crying room with all the little babies and watching the wedding on a video screen! That’s what I do when I’m exceptionally happy, I cry. Today, in honor of my Nephew and Niece, please give your loved ones and extra squeeze!

LOVING MONDAY



Happy Monday!

 Mondays are the start of a new week ripe with possibilities. But some people hate Mondays. The Mamas & the Papas even sang "can't trust that day". What do you love about Mondays? What do you hate about Mondays? What gets you through Mondays? If you're having a difficult Monday today maybe a little upbeat music would help?? Why not create a "happy Monday" playlist of songs?? Nephew Aaron & I rehearse often on Mondays to get our new week started off just fine! That might make it a great Monday! Sending you lots of peace, love and rock n' roll on THIS Monday!! ~Aunt Dottie
