I have many reasons to smile, because I love where I am in my life. Yesterday, I had more reasons to smile because my smiling mechanic easily got rid of the multiple warning lights in my car and my husband Michael installed a new shade in the upstairs bathroom.

Even on dark days, when I lose track of reasons to smile, I try to smile, because studies show that smiling improves one’s mood and leads to more smiling.
Do you see reasons to smile in today’s blog post?


















There are reasons to smile on International Rescue Cat Day (we have two rescue cats), National Old Stuff Day (I have lots of old stuff because I’m old), and World Book Day (because I love books).

Thanks to all those who give me reasons to smile, including YOU!

Thank you for sharing your photos of Harley and Joan on rescue cat day to provide me smiles this morning, Ann.
Thanks for providing me with smiles whenever you share, Mark.
My smile for the day is that I have Pepsi! I am all set now! Lol!
I’m all set now too, Carol Anne!
It looks like Joan is super thrilled about your new bathroom. Is the shower floor heated?
Michael did a great job with the blinds. We could use his help!
We are both super thrilled even though the floor isn’t heated and Michael is very helpful (as are you!).
I’m smiling at the idea of Michael “throwing shade”. And also everything with Harley and Joan.
I’m smiling at you now, Chris.
it makes me smile that Joan is training to run away with the circus and be a hula-hooper
It makes me smile how much Joan wants to run away and stay here at the same time!
