+ and - ...

On the minus side today:

* My laptop has been gone for 19 days...

* We went to a market and I bought some things that I could have been without; a package of vacuum compressed bags for clothing and a device for body hair removal.

* I don't think the hair thing actually works!

* I had some sort of body scanning at the market to find out how much fat, water, muscles etc my body consists of. My counts were good but the "Physical grade" was just 5 out of 9 so what's the point in exercising then??

On the plus side today:

* They were predicting rain but the sun has been out all day.

* My daughter will soon be going on holiday and will surely do some shopping and with these new plastic bags, it will be a lot easier for her to close the suitcase when going home!

* The saleswoman (and mind you, this was after I had bought the bags, so it was not just a sales pitch ) thought that I looked too young to be my daughters mum. She thought that we were just friends (I love people with very bad eye sight! )

* According to the body scan, my metabolic age is 31.

* Everybody is fed and happy and all the family is home for a change!

So all together, this has been a nice Saturday! Hope your day has been good too!

I am glad your day has been a good day and i agree that you look way to young to have kids the age they are...no i'm not creeping ..just a true observation..your hubby must gloat to his mates at work thats for sure.

In many shops here there are signs saying that they hope it will not offend when they ask for proof that the customer is over 18 if s/he has made certain purchases. No, believe me, it won't offend. Ask me . . . please!

  I know what you mean! I would love that too!
  
  Last winter though, when I asked the bus driver how much a ticket cost (I rarely take the bus), he said that it depended on if I wanted a child ticket or an adult ticket... And I thought, Oh my God, should he really be driving a bus??!!

Your positive comments are the ones that you can really be proud of. Don't let the others get you down as that is about all they can possibly do.

We have a saying - 'Accentuate the positive' and how worthwhile that is on the toad to happiness and self contentment.

  I like to think that as long as there are more tings on the plus side than on the minus side, I should be happy!

It's always good to balance any negative things that happen with the positive ones.... hope you have a wonderful weekend!

And yes, you do look very young!

  Thank you! Yes as I said to Skip, as long as there are more things on the plus side than on the minus side, that is a good reason to be happy!
