Loving Laughter



Yesterday I had to do some yucky things. By yucky things I mean things that make most people cringe.

The first thing I had to do was get blood work done. It is probably number 2 only yucky scale (number 1 being spiders). I don't mind needles but not when they suck blood out of me. So I spent 20 minutes of my morning with my eyes closed. That includes the second my butt hit the chair until they let me leave. So, yucky.

After that I had to get two new tires on my car. That means spending money and to most people who don't make a lot of money would say that was yucky.

Needless to say, I was kinda grumpy. However, when Dave and I decided to take a nap before he went to work something changed. I jumped into bed and made a sad face. When Dave asked me what was wrong I showed him my arm where I had taken the bandaid off and said, "It's gross." Seconds later I was cracking up and laughing. At first Dave thought I was crying at first, but quickly realized I was laughing. All I kept saying was "It's gross" and then laughing. For some reason I found such joy in the fact that I was acting like a 3 year old.

Later Dave left for work and I finished my errands and decided to take the day off. I thought about how amazing it felt to laugh like I had earlier that day. Laughter is great! The best kind of laughter is the kind where you laugh until you cry.


Not only is laughter the best medicine, laughter is a great way to get good ab muscles.

Sometimes I think we get so caught up in the troubles of life that we forget how great it feels to truly laugh. Not a fake laugh, but a good hearty belly laugh.

What have you laughed at today?

Found this on Esty
