1. Laughter is the greatest commodity we have to combat stress and anxiety.

2. No worries (that was all there was) are the three words that started off the last email I sent.

3. What I'm most looking forward to today is a nap.

4. Seeing a new baby puts a smile on my face.

5. Where in the world is the perfect purse?

6. That strawberry jello with cool whip is just what I needed!

Oich, bugger the clever titles...
1. Music is the heart, breath, and reason for living.

2. A good stretch is what I like first thing in the morning.

3. The first thing I said this morning was: probably something getting on to one of my children.

4. Dairy Queen; it's what's for dinner tonight.

5. It's all been a blur with pauses of memories that make up a life that meanders from one place to another, seemingly completely unrelated, yet somehow a direct result of those pauses.

6. Sleeping or creating is what I feel like doing right now.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to getting the slides and bulletins done for church, tomorrow my plans include church and a nap and Sunday, I want to *not* go to the board meeting because I'm not on the board - huzzah!

1. Life is continually moving on.

2. My kids keep going.

3. My last text message (or IM) ended in these three words: "get them done" (I was apologizing for taking so long to complete something).

4. Pasta salad is what I'm thinking about for dinner sometime soon.

5. On the 1st day of August I went to an indoor water park with my husband, mom, and kids and enjoyed the lazy river and the wave pool.

6. I sure do wish I were lively and energetic.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to attempting to go to bed at a decent time, tomorrow my plans include church and a nap and Sunday, I want to have fun at Brandon's 10th(!) birthday party!
