For a stormy day

       It might not be stormy where you are today, but it's raining buckets here, hope you can enjoy the day no matter if it's a stormy one or not! :)

Laugh today

Laughter heals

It reaches inside your heart bringing pure happiness to fill every crevice.

It leaves no room for the discouragement of things in the past

It brings sunshine and it spreads to those around you

And sometimes it just can't be stopped :)

I love those moments

the ones when you are trying desperately just to breath between fits of laughter, 
you feel your muscles in your stomach hurting and there are little teardrops falling down your cheeks
~ just because you laughed :)

"The most wasted of all days is one without laughter" ~ e.e.cummings

Walnut harvest in California

75 degree temperatures with lots of sunshine and lots of work to do = happy me :)
Harvesting walnuts is "back-breaking" work, but it's great to have exercise out in the fresh air and sunshine. Ten trees are all finished leaving about seventy trees still to do.  =P
