Go for the gold!!!

What in the world are we waiting for to "go for the gold?!"

For some that may mean accessories, as it does for me, a self confessed accessory addict! Whether I'm working from home or not on any given day, I'm decorating and going for the gold - real and fake!

But going for the gold can also be simple everyday goals!  I mean really, what are we waiting for to do something special, wear something special, use something special, or share something special - even making a phone call to someone special to us!

I remember reading that Barbra Streisand (I've luuuuuuuuuuuved since I was a kid & have seen live three times), had a gift of soaps from her stepfather.   She kept the unopened soap for years opting not to use them as they were a gift.  Well, as I recall, she finally opened the gifted soaps and used them.  It didn't diminish the gift or the memory but rather celebrated being in the moment. As she asked herself, what was she waiting for to open the gift soaps?!

What are we all waiting for to celebrate the gold in our lives?

So don't save that something special -  use it, do it, appreciate it!

PS, As a Streisandaholic' I'm sure I know that the relation with her stepfather was less than loving but I suppose it meant something that he was giving her a gift if not way overdue!

***Most of my characters on my Vanity Cases geeting cards celebrate this toxically optimistic thinking with a bit of pithiness thrown in!  Come see:  VanityGallery.Etsy.com

And if  you say you saw my blog and order even a single card, I'll include a bonus card toyou!

 

A lil' Iris with your monring tea!

I so agree with Miss Apfel, no matter what life throws you, always prioritize and accessorize!

On my worst day, I will have red lipstick and be fully accessorized to put myself into first gear!  It's all about celebrating one's self with a little decoration!  And don't we all deserve a little deocation?

I luuuuuve having my morning tea in my Iris mug and if you'd like to see some more Iris mugs, I hope you'll click on Vanity Gallery on Etsy link!

Also, I would love it if you would like a lil' pithy humor which I share by sharing how I come up with ideas for my cards if you visited and subscribed to my youtube Channel; Collene Kenned

Love, Peace and Chicken Grease and have a great day!

 

I'm much nicer with good hair...but aren't we all?

A quick little check in about good hair days!

I mean really, doesn't everything feel right in the world when one is having a good hair day?  And don't things feel like they are going off the rails when having a bad hair day?!  Seriously, it may seem superficial but it's really not at all.  When you look good, you feel good and when you feel good you do good?  Right?  R'eye'eeeeeeeeeet!

I would luuuuuuve it if you came by my youtube channel, Collene Kennedy and subscribed if you like pithy Vanity Humor!

Or please come on by to my Etsy Vanity Gallery shop, where I'm doing my best to get new cards up more often!  I just need to find that extra 20 minutes in every day...but don't we all?!
