Tasty Terrific Tuesday

posted Feb 8, 2011 5:48 PM by Shawna Cevraini
It's Tuesday. No particular special day. It's a few days away from Valentine's. Wasn't an exciting day at work. I even took the day off from exercising. It's just a plain Terrific Tuesday :) LOL!

What was so Terrific?
  • I had "lunch" with my hubby today - it's been awhile since we could have lunch ALONE at home together...We didn't waste it, I can tell you that! 
  • I found some new tools online that will help with work and business
  • My sister sent an email inviting us all to start creating a "memoir" of our lives growing up - an amazing idea and I'm really pumped about it!
  • I feel like we're moving forward; a lot of things on the go with our business - really EXCITED!!
  • I get to have two FANTASTIC kids staying with us for a couple days - they are like nieces to me, and we've missed them terribly! 
  • I made this YUMMY martini that I just invented....Grey Goose Goodness

As you can see, pretty ordinary stuff. But, the point I'm trying to make (feeling slightly tipsy as I write this...) is that life is so very short to waste time thinking about all the CRAP that happens any given day. There is always the CRAP. There's no escaping it. The best way I've found to "deal" with it (and no, it's not drinking.....I know you guys are thinking that.....LOL!) No, it's in counting those blessings. Those little things that make the day special. Even if it's just one thing. Think about that for a minute....

How to make Grey Goose Goodness

In a Martini Shaker with lots of ice, shake the following:
  • 2 shots of Grey Goose Vodka
  • 2 shots Triple Sec
  • 4 shots Mott's Margarita Mix (yeah, I'm lazy...)
  • 4 shots water
This makes two martini's, but I don't play well with other children, so I drank both! LOL!!

Don't wait for a "special occasion"! Don't wait for an anniversary, or Valentine's day or whatever. Just DO IT today! Find something to love in each and every day. You are blessed to be alive and have people in your life that love you! Grab on and don't let go! It's all cliche, but it is so totally true!
