Good things can still happen during bad times. Focus on and enjoy the good stuff.

I am not impressed by money, social status or job title. I am impressed by the way someone treats other human beings.

I can smell autumn dancing in the breeze. The sweet chill of pumpkin and crisp sunburnt leaves. - Unknown
So often, children are punished for being human. They are not allowed to have grumpy moods, bad days, disrespectful tones or bad attitudes.
Yet, we adults have them all the time. None of us are perfect. We must stop holding our children to a higher standard of perfection than we can attain ourselves. - Rebecca Eanes
Easy Mommy Life
When hanging on has become more painful than the fear of letting go we find our wings!

The following are my own photos which I took with my cellphone. These are little signs that you can put on your front door. You can click on each image to see a larger view.
These last photos are of more reusable shopping bags. The donkey and the bird ones were gifts. The donkey one was sent to me from an online friend that lives in England about 10 years ago! It is from a registered charity named Spana that help working animals! I love bags and tshirts from places that help and rescue animals!
These bags do not take up a lot of room because I have them neatly folded away and change from time to time depending on my need (size, for example), and mood. :)
The following video is a Just for Laughs Gag (Juste pour Rire in French) done here in Montreal. Enjoy! :)

Good evening Linda, how is your Sunday? I hope it is all cheery and bright 🔆 The little signs that can be put on front doors give out warm and fuzzy feelings. You must be a very neat and tidy person to fold your reusable bags to keep them carefully. I like how you choose your bags to use depending on your mood so that your friends would know about your mood by looking at the bags that you are using. Have a good sleep soon in 5 hours 🙏 🌙
So many good ones today, Linda. I like your bag collection too. I have so many reusable bags and I like getting new to me ones. If I find them at a yard sale, I make sure to look at all of them. My guilty pleasure. 😂
this did brighten my day...i feel happy and inspired!! i have heard about programs where inmates work with dogs, it's a marvelous idea, all the way around. i hope you had a nice weekend!!!

I think we ought to let kids be kids - we push them so hard to grow up.
I can tell how much you love animals. Are you a cat lover?
