Last week I outlined my experiment for a new facial cream that promises younger skin. I’m trying it […]
Thanks to my Texan friend and BAM roommate, Pam Lutrell, and the folks at WearUsOut, I got this pair of GlitterflopS. Aren’t they gorgeous? Each pair gets hand assembled in Texas and includes real Swarovski Crystals. You can’t see it here, but when I walk, I make my very own moving disco ball of colored lights, when the sun reflects off the crystals. Fun! Is that saddle leather used for the straps? Indeed, yes.
That’s all wonderful. It’s great to be stylish, but the best part is the feel. The footbeds are “high density” memory foam. The moment I stepped into these sweet GlitterflopS, comfort nestled all around my feet.
So what exactly is high density memory foam?
Mr. L’s parents tell me they work with him about a looking at things from the positive. Even when they explained to then ten-year-old about looking at things from the perspective of the glass half full, he said, “You know Mom, when the glass is half empty and you’re supposed to think about it as half-full…”
This got me thinking.
Maybe Mr. L’s half-empty is indeed positive. Afterall, [tweetthis] half-empty has room for more. [/tweetthis] Because, well, because it has all that empty space. Perhaps all those who seem to be pessimistic are more optimistic than we give them credit for. Perhaps looking at pessimism from another perspective can make it seen as a positive. Afterall, if I always think the worse will happen, I can only be pleasantly surprised by the outcome — never disappointed.
Do here’s some of the things I don’t like, from a different perspective:
The acorns and oak leaves hit the porch with force. It must be more than gravity. Some strong-armed […]

It’s a myth that chameleons change colors to match their surrounding? Really? I always thought that. The September […]
Whew! I’m so happy last week is in the review mirror. Deadlines converging and fluid schedule is wonderful in so many ways. And overwhelming in others.
CoCo got up in a grumpy mood. She complained all the way to work. Maybe a little gratitude?
[tweetthis]”You know, I heard on The Talk last week, that starting the day with gratitude makes you happier and healthier. Let’s each name three things.”[/tweetthis]
Grumble.
