Meant for Me?


This lovely Kate Spade bag is called "Moon Dance Madeline"...I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to own this...while singing Van Morrison...

Original Little Miss Sunshine



This song is one of my favorites...it reminds me of my friend Matt Watson who passed away when I was in high school.  They say that our loved ones give us signs when they are around and I truly believe this song is Matt's sign to me when he's around.  It will randomly come on the radio or show up in unexpected places.  For example, this past summer I was having a particularly horrible day and I walked out of work at 9:15 p.m. to hear the song blasting over the parking lot.  It was being played over the loudspeakers at the little league game next door.  They don't generally play that late and I've never heard them play music before.  I took it as a sign that better things were yet to come.  They were.  For whatever reason, it just now popped in my head and made me smile.  Hope it does the same for you! Hi Matt :)

What is this?

I'm not quite sure yet.  I think it's so easy to focus on the things that worry us, make us scared, and therefore not as happy as we could be.  Is it because of anything we can blame on others? No.  Sometimes I think we need to be slapped in the face with happy.  Sometimes we need to talk about what makes us happy.  Sometimes I think we need to laugh at silly things.  Maybe do the little "aww that's cute" pout?  I don't know...but the bottom line is, I think there's no harm in finding happiness wherever we can!  So maybe that's what this blog is about?  We'll see....
