"Smile, Honey! You're Gonna Be On My Blog!!"


     As I mentioned yesterday, I finished hubby's crochet hat! ^_^ He picked out the colors, and the buttons for the side of it! :-) And he loves it! ... I'm missing the brown still, but WHATEVER!! LOL I think it's a pretty cool Fall/Autumn colored hat! :-) 
      Unfortunately, the moment that I picked for taking photos of hubby in the hat didn't fit in with the moment hubby 'wanted' to take photos of the hat! ^_^ He was on his way somewhere, to do something else, and I insisted vehemently insisted...coerced...wrangled...badgered...requested that he let me take a few shots of his new hat first! ^_^


     I told him: "People are gonna think you don't like the hat, Honey!...SMILE!!" ... The above photo was as close as he could muster at the time! LOL
 


      Oh Well!...I wasn't really after a smile yesterday anyway. I was after some good shots of the hat! :-)) And I got 'em!!! ^_^ ... I'll have to get my smile today!! ^_^


      He's already in a better mood this morning!...It might be the fact that he's looking at my pre-washed hair flying all over my head! :-)) At the moment I look like a 1970's afro-wearing, back-up singer for 'The Supremes' or something!!...but my afro is waaaaay bigger!! LOL...And, even though hubby tried to take photos of my head today.......Uhhhhhhh......NO!!!!!!.....You will not be seeing that smile-worthy moment on this blog!! LOL Hubby's smile is much bigger today though!! ^_^

      Instead, you can smile at these cute earrings I found on Etsy! :-) ...

      I'm off to play some 'Supremes' music and get my hair washed before my meeting. ^_^ Have a good rest of the day, Y'all!! ♥


Go-Go A Dancing

Oh! I remember dancing
late into the night.
Boogying and shaking
up until the morning light!

Nothing like some music
to take your cares away.
And while you're there a-shaking,
there your problems all will lay.

It's a great relief
to be dancing all around.
Smiling as you shimmy
with your 'poundage' going down!

Going to a go-go,
hip a-snapping. Finger too.
If you hear the music
there is nothing else to do!

Mondays Make You Need Something To Smile About!


         I'm aware this morning that anything I decide to talk about is gonna seem frivolous...what with so much death and destruction in the 12 states across the mid-west of the united states, from the slew of tornadoes that came through (You can see a report from March 3, 2012 > HERE <. I couldn't find any more recent video online, but it was terrible!!}...The reports are even worse this morning. :-(
      The lone survivor, the little toddler, Angel Babcock, that was put on life support after one of the tornadoes hit their house, died last night. :-(
         Then there's the Kilauea volcano's destructive path that finally won the battle against this guy's house...

  
       So...be prepared for frivolousness. EVERYTHING could have that title today!...But...maybe that's what we need today...frivolousness...and music...and crochet...And whatever else will give us something to smile about, right?! :-]
      What made me smile yesterday was seeing the tutu in the header photo!...A Paris window with a tutu with musical notes on it! :-) What a great photo!...And here's some more things that made me smile too...Pretty buttons!...


          ...and some cloth-covered button earrings!...



        ...and a colorful necklace!...


        ...and a pretty clutch...


       ...some really pretty feathers (that I may need for some future boutonnieres!)...


        ...a really nice timepiece!...


       ...a fun plate!...


        ...a beautiful color-filled bracelet!...


        ...and lastly, some really colorful and fun, smile-inducing, boxes!...



        Are you smiling yet?! :-) If not, maybe my new crocheted fingerless glove will take you over the edge! ^_^ ...

       Ignore the snow part though, or you definitely won't be smiling!! LOL

       I'm about half way through the other one now. I even wrote the pattern out!! :-) I'm thinking about selling patterns for some of my crochet items....THINKING about it!!! :-)) ... Then it'll be on to the next thing, after that! We'll "all" have to wait and see what that'll be! ^_^ No!...I don't know either! LOL
      In the meantime...here's some music to make you smile too! :-) Have a good day everybody!!


 Reasons To Smile

I don't really need a reason,
to let out a great big grin;
But I do from time to time,
just to exercise my chin.

Sometimes I do it just to see
what reaction I will get,
in the places where I've gone,
and the people that I've met.

Sometimes it's just for me!
To amuse some silly thought;
Or to show just how excited
I have been at what I bought.

Sometimes a smile can change my mood,
when weather forecasts make me blue;
Or when I see a baby playing!
Oh yes! Oh Yes! I smile then too!

Truth is, I really don't need a reason.
Frowns just,frankly, aren't my style.
I could sit and write about it,
But even that would make me smile.
