TGIH~ Hoping for a restful weekend. I hope things go better, and the parts can be picked up today & not have to be ordered for the furnace. It still stinks, but I am using it this morning.
Just checked, & saw the temp is once again 9 degrees. Weatherman is still saying snow storm Mon. & Tues. With temps droping to zero, Oh My! I do not like the ice at all. I am going to put out a lot of dry cat food at the farm in case I can't make it out a couple days. I bet I am feeding all the woods critters now, with Bear not there to keep then away. Thanks for the nice coments on my hair. I appreciate all I can get.LOL I think I will like the perm after I get use to it. I never heard of washing the meds out altho she did wash my hair first, for I have a skin condidion. This will be my only thread over the weekend. I hope you can take the time to share what you been doing. Have a great weekend..... ____ BC |

Good morning!
The sun will shine, honest...... tho maybe not today. Not Spring yet at your house? It's not here either! But it's good to be able to get my feet on the floor, move around a bit, have a cup of coffee, read the 'paper, even do a load of laundry and clean the bathrooms and such. Chores seem to always be available, just not as pressing as they used to be. So add a few of the "Natural Highs" below to your day. I'm fond of #44 ,myself. Please consider this a Hug from me.......... Natural Highs 1. Falling in love. 2. Laughing so hard your face hurts. 3. A hot shower. 4. No lines at the supermarket. 5. A special glance. 6. Getting mail. 7. Taking a drive on a pretty road. 8. Hearing your favorite song on the radio. 9. Lying in bed listening to the rain outside. 10. Hot towels fresh out of the dryer. 11. Chocolate milkshake (vanilla or strawberry). 12. A bubble bath. 13. Giggling. 14. A good conversation. 15. The beach 16. Finding a 2 dollar bill in your coat from last winter. 17. Laughing at yourself. 18. Looking into their eyes and knowing they Love you 19. Midnight phone calls that last for hours. 20. Running through sprinklers. 21. Laughing for absolutely no reason at all. 22. Having someone tell you that you're beautiful. 23. Laughing at an inside joke 24. Friends. 25. Accidentally overhearing someone say something nice about you. 26. Waking up and realizing you still have a few hours left to sleep. 27. Your first kiss (either the very first or first of the day). 28. Making new friends or spending time with old ones. 29. Playing with a new puppy. 30. Having someone play with your hair. 31. Sweet dreams. 32. Hot chocolate. 33. Road trips with friends. 34. Swinging on swings. 35. Making eye contact with a cute stranger. 36. Making chocolate chip cookies. 37. Having your friends send you homemade cookies. 38. Holding hands with someone you care about. 39. Running into an old friend and realizing that some things (good or bad) never change. 40. Watching the expression on someone's face as they open a much desired present from you. 41. Watching the sunrise. 42. Getting out of bed every morning and being grateful for another beautiful day. 43. Knowing that somebody misses you. 44. Getting a hug from someone you care about deeply. 45. Knowing you've done the right thing, no matter what other people think. 46. Getting to spend quality time with your grandchildren. |

More highs:
hearing your parrot call ya mama. Dog wagging tail, body jumping up and down when you come home! Smelling the fragrance of a Tea Olive blooming. Uuuuummmm, heavenly Hearing your great-grand-daughter say....Mimi! Seeing the cute grin come over Hubbys face...same one you saw when you met. This one should have been on the top. Watching a baby toddle across the floor. Feeling the Love of the Lord surrounding you. Hearing wind chimes. Touching a baby's soft sweet little face. The smell of a little puppy's breath. Seeing a daddy playing with his kids. Watching Soldiers come home from Iraq! Knowing your friend loves you! Mud squishing through bare toes! Watching little calves running, kicking up their legs. Planting flowers. Sunshine on your face. Hearing frogs croaking. Driving through the mountains seeing the glory of God, as the sun shines on the autumn leaves. Listening to the silence in the woods. Watchng a kitten play with yarn. Come on everybody....Billie started something good lets keep it going. |

Here are just a few more and I hope I don't repeat but these are personal natural highs for me:
Watching my husband walk into a crowded room and knowing he is mine. Holding my newborn baby for the first time. A surprise call from one of my kids. A good, long belly laugh. Watching a pink hued sun set behind the mountains Falling into my perfectly soft bed after a hard day Being greeted at the door by my 10 lb. wonderdog, Tootsie Have a lovely week-end everyone!

Thank you all for the good ones on natual highs.
Wendy, I like the one you said about an empty sink and clean kitchen. I need to get busy and make that natual high come true. I cannot add to the list as all of you have covered the natual highs rather well. Oh, how about: 1. A 100 on a test. befuddled2 |

Wendy it's a bush that can grow very large and has the most beautiful smell. To me it smells like Heaven must smell. Not to sweet but just right. I love mine. I have 2, they bloom often in warmer weather, with a fragrance that fills the yard. Ummmmmm
I just noticed I am a Member again. I was a member before I changed from slogo to froglady. |
