The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.

So, did you take time to
Be Silly
This week?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’ll be honest and admit that this was a tough challenge for me this week. I’m tired, and the boys are going crazy. We have some routine/discipline/training revamping to do in the next few weeks. Something’s gotta change.
I’ve been trying to get in bed earlier at night to get in a decent amount of sleep before waking up at the crack of dawn to go walking/running, but it is really cutting into my down-time in the evening. Last night I desperately needed some silly, mindless entertainment. The dirty dinner dishes stayed in the sink, and I watched a movie instead. (GASP!)
The Man Who Knew Too Little is pure silliness.
Bill Murray was cathartic for me. And worth the sink of dirty dishes that faced me this morning.

Next week’s Living. Lovely. challenge:
Have a Heart of Gratitude
The unthankful heart… discovers no mercies;
but let the thankful heart sweep through the day
and, as the magnet finds the iron, so it will find,
in every hour, some heavenly blessings!
~Henry Ward Beecher
