Just Keep Smiling

I'm in a list mood today, mkay?  No reason for this post to be in a list form, but sometimes a girl just needs a list.

1.In my effort to stay above the drowning force of laundry, I sometimes forget to check pockets.  It's pretty normal for me to find {very clean} loose change, Lego men, and the occasional lip balm.  This week I found a new item as I was pulling wet laundry from the washer.

 Clean string cheese.  

Just keep smiling.

2. I have a deadline fast approaching that I am getting very nervous about.  It has to do with running shoes and a little road trip.  Being off the treadmill for a week really put me behind schedule, and a little jiggle to my wiggle.

3.My daughter turned 10 over the weekend.  On the eve of her birthday she came to me sobbing.  I don't want to turn ten tomorrow.  Hiccup.  I want to stay a little girrrrrrlllll.

Just keep smiling.  Me too, baby.  Me too.

4. Ever have a moment that you could kick yourself for not having your camera ready?  That happened this week as I was driving.  I had to pull off onto the shoulder so that a log truck could pass me.... with a full sized trampoline (with net attached) resting atop the logs.  One man was holding onto the trampoline so it wouldn't "fall off."  Ya might be a redneck....

Just keep smiling.

5. We lose stuff round here sometimes.  Overall, we are a pretty organized family thanks to my man, but sometimes we just can't find stuff.  Yesterday I discovered why I can't find the obvious sometimes:

Seriously.  A boot in the freezer.
Just keep smiling!
