I’ve been noticing the remarks about this seemingly long January, particularly in the last few days. Honestly, January has been a good, satisfying month for me, but even still, it does feel sort of never-ending. Don’t the holidays seem like forever and a day ago??
+ “If the first thing you do each morning is to eat a live frog, you can go through the day with the satisfaction of knowing that that is probably the worst thing that is going to happen to you all day long.” – Mark Twain
This has been shortened into the statement: “Eat a frog.” The point is, get the tasks which you have been dreading, done and over with, and then you can enjoy the rest of your day and even your week, with ease. Hopefully, reading my blog is not your “eat a frog” moment. My blog is conceivably more of a delicious little Dove heart – just a tiny, harmless, happy break in your day. A spoonful of sugar, makes the frog go down.

This was one of my horoscopes this morning. It brought a smile to my face. It was one of those “I never thought of it that way” moments for me. I would say this is a true statement for me every day of my life. Maybe we worry about our people for the pure little prickling reminder to ourselves, that we love, and we are loved. We like to keep tabs on our love. I’m happy to dedicate at least a corner of my mind to my great loves. I just have to remember to show my love in the form of confidence, and not in worry.
Are you passing on love or are you passing on pain? Heal your pain and pass on love.
Here is the question of the day from 3000 Questions About Me:
910. What is your favorite outfit?
Kelly,
Great last line.
So true as our great loves go out into the world.
Thanks for the fun brain and emotion break to my day.
Joan
Your always welcome, Joan. Thank you for the support. <3
Hmm, I haven’t paused to reflect on whether this month has flown by or dragged. Most of my month has been about trying to balance medications and determine which foods I can keep down and what I have to avoid. I’ve been living in a fog. It’s been disorienting. Even when my birthday rolled around, I was like, “So what?”
It hasn’t been all bad – just different. I think I’m going to write it off as a “lost month” and begin fresh on February 1! That should make the rest of the year seem short! LOL
And to answer the question of the day, my favorite outfit right now is PAJAMAS!
Pajamas are the best! I hope that you feel better soon, Kelly. January was just a free-trial. 😉
