Terrific Tuesday

Here's a little story. When I was in high school (early years, before I could drive) my aunt would drive my cousin and I to school everyday. Whenever she dropped us off, she always said something encouraging. On Tuesdays it was always "I hope you have a Terrific Tuesday!". That has stuck with me for a long time, and I still to this day say it (mostly to myself--but sometimes to Ryan in the morning). It's nice to plant a positive seed, especially at the beginning of the day. Try it--tell yourself to have a Terrific day.  It just might turn your day around :) ------ Here are a few things that make me smile, 'cause that's what qualifies a day as terrific....smiling!

Doesn't he look like Eric Church??

------- What makes you happy? Here's to having a Terrific Tuesday!

Inspiration Friday

Happy Friday all! Today I started off on the wrong foot and I've been feeling a little down since arriving to work (I spilled my coffee, shrunk my new pants, and the people I work with seem to have woken up on the wrong side of the bed). Needless to say, I need a little inspiration to get through the day.

One of the best things about the blog world is that you can share your story, right? I was taking a little time to scroll through some blogs that I keep up with, just to take my mind off of things for a short time, when I came across Ben and Katie's blog. I've been reading their posts for a few months and each time I bring their page up my heart sinks a little. It's a terribly sad yet inspirational story. Check out Ben & Katie's Story and Ben & Katie's Blog. Be careful, you might need a tissue the first go around.

Their story helps me to overlook my bad moments and to see the bigger picture. I try not to get caught up in little everyday issues, but sometimes I just can't help it. Today (at least) I will try to be different. Thank you, Ben and Katie for the inspiration and the reminder to look up and take notice of the good GREAT parts of my life/day! Here's to Ben & Kaite and their journey!

P.s. Stop by and offer words of encouragement :)

Don't forget to smile, enjoy your day, and worry a little less!
