Sometimes we do things or see things that might want to make us upset or angry, but you just have to laugh over them instead. It makes you feel better to laugh rather than get mad or upset. Laughter IS the best medicine :-D While making pancakes this morning, as I was whipping the half dry batter with my whisk, I turned my face away to sneeze and when I did, my sneeze made my arm jerk so much that it flipped most of the dry pancake batter all over the counter and the floor. I made a huge mess, but it was just so funny that I had to laugh about it instead. I wish I could have watched myself do that. LOL

At that moment, I had a choice. I could get extremely angry, or I could just shake my head and laugh it off. I chose the latter. And it truly was funny to think how irritated and irrational people become in crowds.

I'm an old pro at it now, though. Even after I knew what I was doing with it I still had to laugh. I used to tease my mom for being out of the loop...

We laughed for hours because we dont know what We Missed, and to butter what up?!!! Then we started saying "We just have to butter it up" to everything we said.

(I know it's a visual thing, you'd have to have seen, but it still makes me laugh lo these many years later...and brings a tear to the eye...both of these great dogs are gone now...)
