Jimmy the Therapy Kangaroo Lives in our Trailer
7 Money Saving Life Hacks You Should Know
For the following, I am providing the link sources beneath each photo. You just need to click on the images to see a larger view.
Make sure you are planning your days so 10 years from now you can say you chose your life, you didn't settle for it.
The time has come to let go of everything you didn't do right, all the negative things people have said and simply focus on all you are becoming.
Whatever your problem is, the answer is not in the fridge.
Stop crossing oceans for people who won't even jump a puddle for you.
Happy people focus on what they have. Unhappy people focus on what is missing.
Beware of people who dislike cats. - Irish Proverb
Not all wounds are visible. Walk gentle in the lives of others.
If Plan A didn't work, the alphabet has 25 more letters. Stay cool.
Working hard for something we don't care about is called stress; working hard for something we love is called passion.
Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing. - Camille Pissarro
Just breathe...and remember, when you're stressed is when you most need to look at all the ways you're blessed!
Nature. Cheaper than therapy.
Some days it's hard to find motivation. Some days motivation finds you!!!
Thank you all so much for visiting me here! I always appreciate and enjoy reading your kind thoughts, which you are always welcome to share!
Love today's post Linda, but then I always do :)
ReplyDeleteInteresting money saving tips. Worth giving them a try!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to you, Linda. That little girl is so cute, looking so professional conducting the church choir. How fun it is to have a kangaroo living in the trailer!
ReplyDelete7 days to go, will you celebrate at home ,go out? With colder weather coming so soon, a good time to have a birthday up North.
ReplyDeletejust wonderful! all these quotes! only 7 days to go!
ReplyDeleteOctober 27, I've put in my notebook Linda. I wish you a nice Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteGreat gag, Linda !
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Linda, your film clips are interesting. I like the kangaroo, it seems to be a fun pet, hard to imagine living with one. I wonder how they treat a vegetable garden.
ReplyDeleteBonjour chère Linda,
ReplyDeleteJe vous souhaite un très joyeux anniversaire et j'espère que vous sourirez autant que je l'ai fait en regardant votre première vidéo !!... Celle avec le kangourou est chou !!
Gros bisous
"motivation"..
ReplyDeleteune image qui me fait sourire Linda
greetings
héé trop sympa le kangourou!
ReplyDeleteet j'aime bien les couleurs du dernier tableau
How lovely! This has brightened up my day :) All the quotes are beautiful and so true, I especially love the one about motivation :)
ReplyDeleteHave a nice day!
Tijana
Birthday's coming up! Great! I will be there.
ReplyDeleteLike the bear chasing the man on the bike!

Bientôt c'est ta Fête mais 59 ans aujourd'hui ce n'est pas vieux? Je suis ton aînée de 3 ans .... Le temps passe très vite. Tiens je viens d'apprendre que Justin Truddeau est Premier Ministre du Canada !!!! Je me souviens de lui enfant lorsque son père était lui aussi Premier Ministre.
ReplyDeleteMerci pour ta sélection du jour et tous tes jolis posts. Belle journée. Gros bisous
Advanced Happy Birthday! And I really do love seeing your inspirational posts, esp. in the morning:)
ReplyDeletePS So happy with last night's results. Anyone but Harper is A-Ok with me:)
Good morning, dear Linda! That toddler certainly was feeling the music as the church choir sang. She seems destined to make music her life's passion. I enjoyed meeting Jimmy the therapy roo but agree that he will soon be too large and rambunctious to keep inside that tiny trailer. The video containing money saving hacks was very informative and I forwarded it to Mrs. Shady.
ReplyDeleteTomorrow is another busy day for me, dear Linda. I will visit you as soon as I can but it might be late in the day. Thank you, dear friend!
I remember the little gal! Her clip was circulating in Facebook some time back & she's simply adorable. Love it, Linda! xoxo
ReplyDeleteC'est trop cute le mini chef d'orchestre ♡
ReplyDeleteBisous Linda

Happy Birthday for the 27th. You share the same birth date as my youngest grandchild who will be 1...
ReplyDeleteAnother wonderful collection of very meaningful and important posters, etc. I love the gag, too, of course, and the money saving tips, but it's Salmansohn's posters that really hit home. Merci !
ReplyDeleteAnd have a super day today!
Dear Linda,
ReplyDeletehow funny! Especially the fridge-quote. I will be back for your birthday, very curious...
Yours, Sarah
all of these were great, love the grizzly and biker :-0
ReplyDeleteFunny gag video. Cute video with the little girl directing the choir. Great quotes. Have a blessed day. Madeline
ReplyDeletenow THAT'S motivation
ReplyDeleteof course I will be there for your birthday, I will save the date ! enjoy your Tuseday Linda
ReplyDeletethis is exciting ... one more week ... i'm looking forward to the date! :) the videos today are very cool, especially on the therapy kangaroo ... i've heard of therapy dogs and other animals before, but not kangaroos ... fascinating and enlightening :)
ReplyDeleteVery wise words again, thank you, Linda. And awww, Jimmy sure is very cute still. He´ll be a huge boy, soon!
ReplyDeleteHappy early birthday to you!
ReplyDeleteLOL at Premiere Suites Atlantic image...I thought it was by Meanwhile in Canada :-)
Hi Linda. The naming of the World's birds is a strange and wonderful enigma. Our European Redwing is in no way related to your Red-winged Blackbird but both are superb in their own right.
ReplyDeleteYou're right as usual. Nature is infinitely more effective than therapy.
I wish I could sent you a birthday card? Shall I ( you can email me on: stuurnkaart@gmail.com) But I think It shall come too late because it must travel with plane and train.
ReplyDeleteBig hug: Ralph
Happy Almost Birthday.
ReplyDeleteMuchas gracias Linda por tu cordialidad, tu cariño y el amor que pones en tu trabajo. Un fuerte abrazo.
ReplyDeleteGreat quotes! I esepcially like: Happy people focus on what they have. Unhappy people focus on what is missing.
ReplyDeleteMerci ma belle Linda, Bise et bonne soirée dans la joie!
ReplyDeleteHaha, I need that fridge one. Have you heard of a Passion Planner? It's designed to make sure you're working toward your dreams and goals, not just living day to day. A fellow children's writer introduced me to it and I LOVE it. Happy early birthday. Can't wait for the blog party!
ReplyDeleteI would like to be 59 again, we just started our full time travels then:)
ReplyDeleteSome nice quotes about planning today. Excellent reminders Linda. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe Irish proverb is quite fitting!
ReplyDeleteWell happy birthday in advance, I like the fridge reminder it very clever...
ReplyDeleteHi Linda! It's so nice to meet you and it's almost your birthday! Wahoo!
ReplyDeleteI loved reading your blog and what you wrote about BEcoming! It was sweet affirmation to me today! I too really enjoyed the planning quotes. I even have a happy planner. I look forward to getting to know you better. Thanks for visiting the shed... yes that sweet Denise is a gift!
wow.. looking fw to your bday post.. and may you stay, forever young at heart! :D
ReplyDeleteLoved the JFL gag, although I did wonder why no one offered to carry the box so the policeman could hold the phone himself. The child is church is adorable.
ReplyDeletelooking forward to celebrating with you, love you
ReplyDeleteI definitely won't miss your birthday :)
ReplyDeleteWow. The quote about crossing oceans for people who wouldn't jump a puddle for me, soooooooooo true.
ReplyDeleteI also really enjoyed the Salmansohn about planning my days so in 10 years I can say that I choose my life. I was just thinking about that and writing!
Good post. Good, good post. Thank you! Lookin' forward to birthday post!
Be sure, I'll be here to celebrate with you your birthday on October 27th, I wonder what you're thinking about for that blog post ... I always feel so confused when I have to write my comment, I truly like everything, believe me, everything you post !
ReplyDeleteSending much dear love, I wish you a wonderful weekend ahead and please, never stop blogging, I cannot do without the moments you present me as a gift here :) !!!!
