Happiness?

An OH Happy Day...

Just A Happy Day

 Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory,1Pe 1:8

no reason

just fun filled thoughts

it's exam week at the high school

I work in - the Health Room is quiet

getting lots of things done...

 "You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands."Isaiah 55:12

no worries today

just being silly and happy

and I've had my share of sucky days...
but this isn't one of them
I just woke up on the bright side

mango, peach protein shake, Starbucks coffee
good attitude, a custom card order with cows on them
Cool!

 "This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24

and I'm wishing you the
sweetest day ever! Jenn

Sing It Loud - Sing It Proud!

oh happy day!

today and even yesterday were just super,

duper days! i laughed a lot. had fun with friends. the students were testing so the health room was very slow. i caught up on paperwork. worked on a new greeting card line i just designed and have sold quite a few.

i just feel filled with happiness.

i was riding in my car after work yesterday and having my

conversation with God.

the sun had just come out and i was saying

"thank you":

• for the beautiful weather
• for the huge smiles i kept having
• students that had come into my life
• new friends
• summer trying to peek in
• flowers popping everywhere
• health
• blogging buddies
• art
• music

I know I talk about happiness a lot. But I praise God in doing it. It's this burst I get - this pleasurable feel of gifts of feelings. I know it's His grace. So I turned the tunes up in my car and danced as much as was legal in my car... and kept the conversation going. I don't ever want to stop being grateful. I also hope it doesn't bore you. Just me being me.

to the tips of my toes happy

Down In My Heart!

I've Got the Joy In My Heart

I've got the joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart

Where?
Down in my heart!

Where?

Down in my heart!
I've got the joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart
Down in my heart to stay

And I'm so happy
So very happy
I've got the love of Jesus in my heart
Down in my heart

And I'm so happy
So very happy
I've got the love of Jesus in my heart.

I've got the love of Jesus, love of Jesus
Down in my heart
Where?
Down in my heart!
Where?
Down in my heart!

I've got the love of Jesus, love of Jesus
Down in my heart
Where?
Down in my heart to stay.
happy, happy, joy, joy
bless you!

restful

happy

joyful

caring

loving

mother's day

the best




I don't need jewels

or fruit basktes

breakfast in bed

now this is a funny story... momma is sleeping

soundly one Mother's Day morning when I hear

 my two lovely boys yelling at one another...

 "I told you it wouldn't work!!!!" "You jerk!" crying... yelling.."I didn't know!" I trudge down the

stairs to see my older son glaring at his brother

 who is in tears, totally frustrated.

 Todd yells "He's such a jerk!

I told him you couldn't make an omemlet

 in the waffle iron!".

My sons give me gifts with their love all the time,

but GOD gave them as a gift to me.

My friend Boobie and I hit the road last weekend for my birthday.... it was a hoot! The only negative was the 6 lb. weight gain which I am certian is all water weight! I couldn't be the Bloody Mary's on Sunday, the home-made ravioli and wine on Friday, the pastries and cookies from Little Italy all

weekend!!!!!!

Happy Birthday was had by all.... now H2O is had by ME!!!!!

Oh, and there is an adorable King Charles Cavalier residing in Bobbie's sister's home named "Leo". The Reading Glass Outlet is great and if you're ever in the area - the outdoor Italian market is the bomb!!!!
