FUN+STUFF #004 & SHOP UPDATED

I received this today and wanted to share it - I made mine already and happy(or better, thankful...) to say the result came up to me as I'm among the people who enjoy life being grateful to others!

"Do you light a candle or curse the darkness? Do you bless each and everything that comes your way, trusting that its meaning will become clear--even if you can't possibly see how in the moment? Take our quiz and compare your score with scores from a random sample of 1,200 other respondents." (Copyright 2000, Michael E. McCullough and Robert A. Emmons)

Also I listed another bellies set last night at my Etsy's. Just to know.

Have a great day!

BlueBellies - giving thanks today & always

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

First of all, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I have a THANKs List:

• Thanks God we're all here today celebrating - not with overeating feast nor the big sales running out there - but the fact that we ARE here, with our family, friends, loved ones. Thriving.
• Thank you for reading my BlueBellies blog, leaving comments and making my visitors counter "adding up"...
• Thanks for our everyday creativities, common sense, kindness and artistic souls!

Make this day not just another holiday or day-off, but a moment to fill your heart with love and gratitude.

BlueBellies - just a grateful heart.

Just a story but real love

I know...it still months for Valentine's Day, but why wait to spread some love?

So here we go...

A British man and a Spanish woman rediscovered their romance and tied the knot, after a lost love letter had kept them apart for more than 10 years.

Carmen Ruiz-Perez was a foreign student in her 20s visiting the UK when she fell in love with Steve Smith 17 years ago.

They dated for a year and got engaged, but circumstances eventually drove the pair apart—that is, until Ruiz-Perez's mother renovated her fireplace.

The builders uncovered a letter that Smith had sent to Ruiz-Perez's mother's house just a couple of years after their breakup. It was a plea for them to rekindle their romance, but it had fallen behind the fireplace a decade earlier before Ruiz-Perez knew of its existence.

And now, the inspirational story has a happy ending. After finding the letter, Ruiz-Perez called her old boyfriend and the two met up again, finding their love was still strong. The couple married in July.

"When we met again it was like a film. We ran across the airport into each other's arms," Smith told the BBC.

"I never got married and now I'm marrying the man I have always loved," Ruiz-Perez added.

This love story was found in an internet inspirational website and just wanted to share.

Hi there, look what I found...this is for the lovely card makers out there:

"We'd love for you all to help -- Diana Harrison Biorkman has a 5-yr old son in his last stages of a 2 1/2 year battle with Neuroblastoma cancer. They are celebrating Christmas - maybe his last - THIS weekend and Noah loves Christmas cards."

Please consider this and take a minute to send a card to: Noah Biorkman, 1141 Fountain View Circle, South Lyon MI 48178.

The image I'm sharing it's a baby food (apple sauce) that happened to show a heart shape on it and on the lid. Sounds like a silly thing but I found it pretty interesting to share and to tell that we can always find little - neat - different - even cute things in our everyday life.

Well, in this case, even in a jar of baby fruit puree.

:)

Have a great day!
