Happy WEDNESDAY everyone!!! This happens to be one of my FAVORITE days of the week...because we're half way to the weekend...:)

So, as I sit here, there are a few things I COULD be complaining about (mainly my SORE SORE muscles from my awesome workouts this week)...but what GOOD WOULD THAT DO??

So instead, I'm going to think about what made me SMILE so far today....it may sound cheesy, but COME ON PEOPLE...a positive attitude is half the battle..:) SO...here is my SMILE list...

1. Getting in an awesome workout with my trainer this morning
2. hearing the birds sing, which reminds me of SPRING!! :)
3. diving into an orange and finding it was DELISH
4. getting words of support from YOU wonderful people
5. chatting with my baby sister
6. sipping on some AMAZINGLY delish java... :)
7. and LASTLY...although it IS APRIL, and we shouldn't be seeing snow....its snowing outside my office window, and the flakes are huge, fluffy, and do look quite pretty..:)

Stay positive everyone..and make today a GREAT DAY!! :)

Toodles!

    Hubby - when I told him that liver contains more vitamin c than an orange, he replied I will stick with my liver then thanks - I dont think an orange will be as good at soaking up wine.
