I took one selfie with my cell phone during my relaxing day at Pocahontas State Park yesterday. All the green trees and lush grass was so beautiful as I relaxed on the quilt demanding my inner self to be peaceful.

Looking at the picture now, I realize that I actually do look relaxed. A stranger that knows nothing about me would never be able to guess all the trauma, allergies and overall sadness I’ve been through during the last couple years. That’s a good thing!
See the reflection of the monkey bread clouds in my sunglasses.
I think it is awesome.
Today was another calm day and I refused to let anything ruin it even when I:
- dropped a glass jar on the top of my right foot
- caught my right foot between the chair leg and chair lift mechanism
- hit my front teeth on my desk
You’re probably wondering how I hit my teeth on the desk, right?
Within thirty minutes of dropping the glass jar on my foot, I caught my right foot in the chair. After I untangled my foot and realized how close I came to breaking my ankle, I started laughing at my own clumsiness. I was laughing so hard and leaned over to hold my stomach. My mouth was open laughing and my teeth hit the top of my desk.
See? That was very logical!
It didn’t destroy my peace, but I did laugh so hard that my stomach hurt.
It really is funny if you think about it.
”Excuse me! Can’t you see I’m kicking my own ass here?” You have absolutely no idea. Thank you.
LOL Jerel!!!! You’re gonna be fine just like I’m gonna be fine too 🙂 I think 😛 LOL
your future is so bright, you gotta wear shades
Awwww, thank you and so poetic in a hip momma way! 😉 😀
yes indeedy – you really do look relaxed!!! 😀
…sounds like your chair could be your laughin’ place 😛
I DO laugh a lot sitting in this chair! LOL
😀
I did think about it, but even before I thought about it I thought it was funny! 🙂
LOL It IS funny!
I mean, the vision I conjured up in my mind of you laughing so hard and leaning over to hold your stomach while your mouth was open laughing and then your teeth hitting the top of the desk now that was comical. Actually, now that I’m rethinking the whole scenario, it really wasn’t funny at all. What if you banged your two upper front teeth so hard when they hit the desk that you cracked them? Now that would have been horrible. Do you know how much veneers cost? I’m not laughing anymore. Did you go to the bathroom and check that you had no hairline fractures in your teeth? Sherry, I’m being serious. How do these things keep happening to you? Are you Lucille Ball reincarnated? 🙂
I think I’m more of a clutz than even Lucille Ball! (rolling my eyes)
