greetings everyone! we meet again! this past weekend hubby & i took a trekk to minneapolis {the "cities" to us county folk} where i made a visit to a favorite shoppe...hunt & gather. this occasion found me doing more hunting than gathering...but..a pile 'o letters did catch my eye. after multiple combinations of words...i did come up for air w/ an OLD selection {below}.
i know...i know. **yawn**...you've seen letters of the sort on my blog. and you're probably wondering why it's it worth mentioning these. well - because ultimately i used them in a way that made me smile. and i like to bring a smile to your face. so here's hoping i will do so!
without much thought to any meaning {beyond my fondness for "old" stuff} i popped them on top of a floor length mirror in our spare bedroom - next to which i stack my pre-planned apparel selection...like this getup {below}
but after {3} days of looking in a mirror with the word, OLD, on it...i decided that wasn't a very positive "greeting" to start my day on. so i added a few small alphabet flashcards & took to the mirror with my giant black marker. amazing how the addition of two words changed the whole message {below}!
now when i do my spot check in the mirror i chuckle to myself...because i am reminded that you are only as old as you feel. despite what the former message above the mirror told me!
act old later, my friends, or maybe never @ all!
good one, kiddo!
