Take 2 & Call Me in the Morning

Today is my day off.

I love my day off!

I typically sleep in a little, then make brunch with one of the girls: chocolate-chip pancakes, eggs, & bacon (or "meat candy" as we call it here in the Oettle house). Yummy!

After brunch, I clean the kitchen, make my 2nd helping of coffee, then sit down & watch some cartoons with my kiddos.

I've gotta tell ya... Cartoons are TOTALLY therapeutic for me! The Bible says that laughter does good like a medicine, & I've certainly found that to be true... It's good to laugh!

Laugh at life's little jokes (some might see that as redundant).

Laugh at life's ironies.

Laugh at life's difficulties.

Most of all, laugh at myself... That seems to be the only remedy for taking myself just a little--or a lot--too seriously.

Yep... It's good medicine.

How 'bout you... Are you needing a healthy dose of perspective?

Here's a prescription: spend about 10 minutes watching Bugs Bunny (that's about 2 cartoons worth).

But you don't have to call me in the morning. ;-)
