My Happy Earrings

~ JodiLea

I normally do not post photos of
myself here (or anywhere!) but I HAD to show y’all my new accessory.

Head Shot SideShot

Last week-end my wonderful 10-year old granddaughter made me a pair of earrings. Out of duct tape! The ear wires are real wire, but the big flowers are not. So, even though they are HUGE, they are light weight. When I tried them on I immediately thought of Goldie Hawn on Laugh-In. Wild and happy.

You cannot put these wonderful earrings on your ears and not smile.  When you see your up-tight and harried self in the mirror, put on these big flower earrings and smile at yourself. They will not solve big problems, or create peace in the Middle-East. (At least, I don’t think so.) But these big, bright flowers can lighten your spirits, and maybe things won’t seem so bad.

Seeming better is a happy thing.

I plan to wear them to our next Board Meeting.

They couldn’t hurt.  🙂

What Makes Me Smile

~ JodiLea

This is the easiest topic so far this year!

I have a lot to smile about and many things crack me up. But I only have to think about my “girls”  and I am grinning like an idiot ♥

#1 My daughter and granddaughters. I could really use a BIG dose of them right now.

My Three Girls
Tanya, Chloe & Phoenix
Tea Party Madness
Phoenix Marie


We had so much fun at our tea party! We usually are giggling whenever we are together.

Miss Chloe’s first pigtails. I worried they may be too tight, but Tanya assured me that her eyes were so big because she is fascinated with cameras.

#2 Dogs. I just LOVE them. Especially Bernese Mountain Dogs because they are big furry people. They love people (they think they are people) and they smile a lot. Molly is gone now, but her memories are very much with us.

This topic could not have come on a better day. After dealing with some upsetting issues this afternoon, I needed some smiles. Looking through photos to find ones for my post really did make me smile!
