A Weekly Offering of This n That

Rainy Day is my alter ego. She is the little angel that sits on one shoulder and whispers in my ear to forgo that 6" piece of triple chocolate fudge with the four scoops of ice cream on it; she is also the little devil who sits on my other shoulder and convinces me that I can eat just one bite of each and be satisfied, and then laughs with such great abandon when in fact, I eat the whole thing, she falls off my shoulder. Mostly, Rainy Day helps me see the humor in living and, mostly, she encourages me down the right path. Not necessarily the straight and narrow one (how fun is that?) but the path that offers the most adventure and fun.

Rainy Day and the Daily Survival Kit for 2012


Rainy Day isn't much for making New Year's Resolutions – she figures if she doesn't make them, she won't break them! However, she received the following in an email on New Year's Day, and thought she would share with you, her most favored and Gentle Readers. Neither Rainy Day, nor the person who sent it to her, knows who the author is. Should you know, would you please let Rainy Day know, so she can give proper attribution – and seek a belated permission for using hisser work.

Today, I am giving you a
DAILY SURVIVAL KIT

to help you each day............

Toothpick ... to remind you to pick the good qualities in everyone, including yourself.

Rubber band ... to remind you to be flexible. Things might not always go the way you want, but it can be worked out.

Band-Aid ... to remind you to heal hurt feelings, either yours or someone else's.

Eraser .... to remind you everyone makes mistakes. That's okay, we learn by our errors.
  
Candy Kiss ... to remind you everyone needs a hug or a compliment everyday.

Mint ... to remind you that you are worth a mint to your family & Me.
  
Bubble Gum ... to remind you to stick with it and you can accomplish anything.

Pencil ... to remind you to list your blessings every day.
  
Tea Bag ... to remind you to take time to relax daily and go over that list of blessings.

This is what makes life worth living every minute, every day

Wishing you love, gratitude, friends to cherish, caring, sharing, laughter, music, and warm feelings in your heart in the
2012 year.
