I get like this….. “High on Life"! I went out walking for an hour! I realized I was using all my senses, I could feel the wind touching my body (made the hair stand up on my arms, the sun was out warm against my skin, mmmmm the fragrances of the flowers as I walked by and just an all around beautiful day. The endorphins were being released as I walked faster and faster. I was feeling so good I wanted to SKIP!!! LOL….I was walking taking this all in with a huge smile on my face…It made me think of the movie “Rocky" when he ran up the steps and danced around….I WANTED TO DO THIS WITH MY ARMS RAISED UP IN THE SKY….I STARTED TO DO IT!!! THEN I THOUGHT ABOUT HOW ALL THE PEOPLE IN THE CARS WOULD HAVE THOUGHT…LOOK AT THIS CRAZY LADY!!!!! LOL If they only knew where I came from and how AWESOME it felt to just be able to walk “UP HILLS" and for an HOUR and not even feel tired! I could have gone even further, but unfortunately….I had things to do at home…bummer…Ok, back down to the real world! What makes you “High on Life!!! Ginger

Hmmm..

An extra 50% off clearance with a coupon for an extra $10 off a $50 purchase!!!!

Finding a good book at Goodwill.

Sticking my toes in the ocean any where any time of year even if it's cold.

The corner crust of a fresh peach cobbler.

Finding cute size 10w shoes.

It doesn't take much to make me happy!

I love the new Wild Honeysucle fragance at bath and body. Reminds me of childhood. We used to suck juice from honeysuckle and make wreaths from the vines.

I made kudzu jelly once, and now I can smell when the kudzu is in bloom! Smells (and tastes) like a grape safe-T-pop.
