I have a million blog ideas rolling around in my head. I kind of picture it like a bunch of marbles in an empty cardboard box.
Sadly, I’m too tired sort through them and make you laugh.
Today, I ran a 5k with Stephanie, retrieved an almost donated toy from a Goodwill box (more on that later), and did all of my Christmas cookie grocery shopping.
Right now, I am stuck to my couch stretching and icing my aching feet, waiting for it to get late enough for me to go to bed without Steve laughing at me.
I. am. spent.
But for the past few days I have wanted to share something.
It’s a blog. A really fun blog that makes you feel good.
From what I understand, Michele went through some rough times around her 40th birthday and decided to start looking for joy everywhere in her life, as a reminder that happiness is all around.
I hope you’ll go visit her blog and leave a comment or two.
Here are some of my favorite I Spy Joy posts:
I spy joy on the street corner
Happy surfing!

Sent a note to Michele. What a wonderful way to spread the word. And you Missy, have to slow down – you can’t be going as much as you do and think you won’t run yourself down. Please…..take a break and enjoy your time – it goes by much too quickly.
Thanks, Becca!
I made some Christmas cookies today with my kids. I see from your post it must be in the air. Happy almost holidays!

Thanks for sharing this great site. I don’t think she’d like my joy in the toilet post too much though ;)

Ran a 5K? You go, girl!!! And yes, I did make the snacks. Well sort. of.. Me and 3 other gals went in $25.00 a pop to make them. We made them on 2 different days. I helped the first day when we mixed, rolled and froze everything (you may remember a You Capture post with rows and rows of peanut butter balls) then on the second day (I could be there) they dipped and decorated. So, yes, I most certainly helped! Thanks for stopping by! Julie

THanks for the links! So fun to hear of your 5K with Stephanie…she is one of the desert bloggers I wanted to meet when I lived there! Maybe we can all meet sometime when I visit!

So sorry to hear about your aching feet! I’m still SUPER impressed that you ran the whole thing…AND beat your previous time, to boot!
I’ll try to plan that Tucson Blogger Social soon…even if it’s just something simple like drinks & dessert. :)
