Song for the Happy!

I felt like being Happy, some days are so hum drum, that I needed I lift, so I searched on youtube for something cheery, anything would do, as long as it was upbeat and cheery. I came across many, as we all know we can find just about anything on youtube.

This video definitely gave me the happy I needed, I love this scene, and I have not seen if for a while. Mostly everyone at the table is happy, except for just a few, but you see, you would never know that, cause happiness covers the sadness. And watching this video, just made me realize that even tho I wanted Happy, sadness mixed in was just fine.

As in life, happiness and sadness is a daily mixture, with each day we hope that Happy prevails, and if not, we always have tomorrow.


Scene from the movie "My Best Friends Wedding"

Good morning Lynnd,Scirish & Bebbi!
This is early for me, but I have a lot to do today and am meeting my SIL for lunch.

Carol. What a nice way to start the morning! The first thing I do when I get out of bed is look out my bedroom window and give thanks for being given another day, good or bad. I am a huge Optimist but have very realistic look on life.
Have a great day everyone, on this beautiful day we have been given.

Mary/MI said...

TINA, DIANNE and MEK: We should have sung this at Olive Garden..they would have loved it..and maybe even forgiven us for holding onto that table for five hours! :D

night.owls.sb said...

Bebbi!
Congrats on 1.. Fun!

Morning Everyone!

Happy April Fools Day!

Enjoy this 1st day of April

goldie said...

Good Morning Hooters and congrats Bebbi!

I sure needed that video. I haven't seen that movie in years.

The snowflakes are flying and the snot is running. Lynn- I don't appreciate you sharing this with your "seperated at birth" sister.

Can someone explain to me how someone(me) who is a mouth breather(hence my propensity to hoard and use lipshitz)can not breath when their nose is plugged up???? If I use my mouth to breathe why does it matter. I pondered this at 3am when I was sitting upright trying to breathe and not drown in snot at the same time. TMI? sorry.

Hope everyone has a good day and no one plays an April fool's on you!

goldie said...

25 for MEK

night.owls.sb said...

Shirley,
Thank you ever so much for the stats, I can't believe I have so much to say!

I think its a great way to start the day too! Happy!

Mary...
I agree, each day is a blessing...

night.owls.sb said...

TinaHO!
You have snow? Yuck.. One good thing about April 1 here in NJ.. No more heavy snow, actually it hardly ever snows in April, and if we do get snow, it is light.. So 2day I am taking my snow removal helpers out of my trunk and putting them in the garage, as I won't be needing them till next year..

Hooray!

night.owls.sb said...

Ok, I have to get to work..

see ya all later

Tina....careful in that snow... but you can keep it!!!

Morning Bonacci....

Mary...enjoy lunch...
so am I right in thinking ... you were supposed to get the necklace next... so it would be there before your cruise... but you are leaving soon and it isn't even to EBJ yet...

Does that make me next on the list!!??? and then to you when you get back!!???
I am confused...

Whabby... would that be your favorite line from that movie... or the man delivering it... I think he is soooo sexy!!!!

Zona...morning... are you crafting this week....


Carol...love this movie... GREAT way to start the morning.... but for me.. it is like you sent me porn... Dermut Mulroney excites me very much!!!!


Goldie..sorry you got the crud!!!!
feel better soon!!!!!!!!

Waving a wwing at anyone who lands later...
have a great dayu all... I will be busy doing the laundry and cleaning... You know... usual "day off" stuff!!!!!!!!!

ibebold said...

NExt novel installment...

Sandie hope your trip was a good one... by my math you should be home today or tomorrow...

Shirley... thanks for the stats...
wow I don't get very many milestones in here... tough crowd... and it will be worse after lent...
I can't wait to see the fight for 69 on easter...
maybe they should wait til monday!!!!

I can't believe I have 3 quotes of the day.... you happen to have written down what they were ... I only remeber seeing one!!!!

you are a great stats taker... will you be my bookkeeper!!??

Mary/MI said...

ibb, I think you just confused me lol! Actually you were right. I am being skipped. I should get it after EBJ unless the powers that be say different. I was hoping to take it on my cruise, but somehow it missed me. No problem. I will take it karaoke-ing with me when I get back. I have 3 gigs 3 weeks in a row. A State Ladies Moose bowling league has booked us. It should be fun.

BBL time to meet SIL

Zona,everything is packed and ready to roll!

Tina~in_ut said...

Carol~ I love that song~ It's a happy day....even with the snow...the passengers are being really nice~ AND I got my Certificate of Excellence award today....shhhh....i don't think they realize who they gave it to~

WWW.CUSTOMCROPS.COM

Dianne/Denver said...

Hi All.....TINA: I am waiting for your snow. They say we are getting some this afternoon in time for rush hour and then another bigger snow on Friday so you will have to let me know when you are sending it on. Congrats on your award...I always new you were EXCELLENT!!!

ZONA: I think this would have been a great song to get the whole place singing at the Olive Garden. You should have started it and we all would have joined in...next time!

Direct TV is here as our new DVR won't work in the bedroom and I have been without TV in there since Saturday. Now the guy can't get the cable to work...it was just fine before he got here on the other TV's. MrD is home today due to too much snow in the mtns for work and I am glad since he can work with the guy.

MARY: I hope you have a great trip and take lots of pictures. You will be our current owl nest bathing beauty!

Just_Lin said...

Happy April Fool's Day, Hooters!

Bebbi Congrats on sliding in first today.

Scirish You missed it by only a feather.

Carol Thanks for the happy song. Wouldn't it be fun to really do that in a restaurant?

Mary You have a wonderful attitude every morning. I'm going to try to be more like you and be consciously thankful for each day.

Just_Lin said...

Tina Congrats on your award! I got my federal tax refund the other day. That felt like getting an award. ;)

goldie said...

I didn't get an award or a tax refund. :(
LOL

Congrats tina~

The sun is starting to shine a little and I have so much frigging cold meds in me I am currently only feeling like 5 miles of bad road instead of 10. :)

No one has tried to prank me yet todaym but the client that was just in here informed me she has pink eye! I wiped EVERYTHING down with my disenfectant wipes!

whabbear said...

IBB: Actually, it's just the line... Rupert Everett does nothing for me!

Lani said...

A good happy day to everyone. I haven't blogged as much lately, but none of you are ever forgotten & I check ms status to make sure everyone is mostly okay. I think I am nesting along with Jennifer. The baby is due anytime. There is so much house & yard work to catch up on.

EBJ - I looked at yesterday's blog and decided my hearing has turned to smut. I was watching something on the TV and swore I heard the line "just a minute sweet meat" I replayed it, as I thought that couldn't be. And, sure enough it was "just a minute sweetheart" That happens to me A LOT!

Thanks for the happy wake up today Carol

Tina~in_ut said...

I'll have whatever Lani is having~ ijs~


Thank you, Dianne, J/L, and Goldie~

IBB~ that sounds simply naughty~ I'll have to look it up~ :D

bonachichi said...

I hope everyone's having a calm April Fool's. It is unfortunately, one of Mr. bonacci's favorite days. My treat this year (so far) was the removal of the toilet seat. The lid was still there, mind you. It's just that after I lifted it and hucked myself down, there was nothing but bowl and cold water. Has anyone else been pranked?

scirish said...

Bonacci~LOL!!! You poor thing!! No pranks for me so far today...Last year however, my best friend (?) put Vaseline on the phone handset....I, of course, had to retaliate....I taped a dead spider to her ciggy pack.

Zona said...

BEAR: :I...:D :D :D!!!

MARY: Have a ball! :)

IBB: Have you ever heard that Miami Sound Machine song.."The Ribbon is Gonna Get You?"..that describes me and crafting.... ;)

Zona said...

GOLDIE: Feel better! Have you tried a vaporizer..old school, but it works!

CPGEM: But...I like snow... ;)

DIANNE: After one drink..you only had to suggest it, I would have sung my heart out. That's why I rarely drink!!

LANI: LOL @ sweet meat..ok..get your mind back on that grandchild.. ;)

Zona said...

TINA: Congratulations Your Excellency! So very, very well deserved! :)

SCIRISH: Although I hate spiders..I think you got the worst of that prank!

J/LIN: Don't spend it all in one place! Great to see you back!

BONACCI: LOL...my hubby knows better than to April Fool me..I have all night to think up my retaliation! ;)

Zona said...

EBJ: Loved your blog yesterday! The one lyric I always misheard was from the Motels "Only the Lonely" I always heard "Only the lonely get laid.." it was actually "Only the Lonely can play.." oh well...the mind sometimes wanders..lol..

Zona said...

I marched to 50 for TINKA...those are some boots to fill..my feet are tired!! :)

ibebold said...

Zona.. I laughed out loud... at your new miami sound machine song... now I can't get it out my head... "The ribbon is gonna get you..."


and I loved the Motels.... that was one of my favorite songs...

sacBarb said...

Happy Wednesday and April 1st Owls.

Carol, I love this scene and the song. I saw this movie with two co-workers and the next day we started a sing along in the lunch room. It was so fun and funny and we were so loud people came from the next floor to see what the commotion was.

In the scene, I especially love the waiters in the back waving with the lobster mitts on their hands.

Thanks for the smiles and laughs.

sacBarb said...

Bebbi, beat out Scirish bythatmuch.

Scirish, LOL @ the dead spider.

LynnD, glad you are feeling better. Don't work too hard.

Tina_driving_in_the_snow_in_UT, Congrats on your award. I'm sure they knew exactly who they gave it to and that it is well deserved.

Bear, didn't we hear that song at your house?

Mary, I agree - every day I wake up on this side of the dirt is a blessing and a good day.

Zona, Isn't that Miami Sound Machine song....ummmm, never mind!

Goldie, Feel better soon.

IBB, Thanks for the custom crops info, I think. You, like MEK, are now an enabler.

Dianne, So I take it your cable guy wasn't as cute as my cable guy????

Have a good rest of your day Owls. BBL

ibebold said...

Sacbarb...

Bebbilane said...

EBJ, your necklace is last seen in Hodgkins Illinois..probably on a semi truck in a little box..anxiously looking forward to seeing California!

Bebbilane said...

Sorry EBJ..i have been a 69 hog lately.

Bebbilane said...

oink oink uh oh, I don't want anyone mistaking me for MO and trying to carve off a piece of my backside!

Bebbilane said...

scrish: I followed your link but I didn't get what it was saying?

Bebbilane said...

Sooooooooooooooo....who do you think is going home on Idol tonight?

My guess: Megan..with Anoop as a close second. What about anyone else?

Tinkatia said...

Sorry I haven't had any free time today. Hello to everyone. My day was full of going to the doctor, attending my grand daughter's Spring concert and now going out to dinner. Oh yes, I did have a nap in the middle. I love that song and that video. I will listen to it tomorrow. Have a great night everyone. Love, Tinka

Bebbilane said...

Going to watch the results! Tink, sorry I missed you. It sure sounds like you had a blessed and full day! Hugs..miss you!

Maureen said...

Based on the comments, I think I know what scene this is and I LOVED it!! So fun!Thanks for letting me remember that, Carol.

I adored David Cook tonight.

I hope tatoo girl goes home. I am so over her.

GOLDIE...sorry you have the crud. I still have it 11.5 weeks later.

night.owls.sb said...

I am watching Aidol....

I am hoping tatoo girl, or Anoop go home..

We shall see..

The secret will be safe with till tomorrow..

If anyone wants a spoiler ms me..

:O)

bonachichi said...

So glad you all are having an easy day today. I told you all about the missing toilet seat which incidentally, I still haven't found.

I didn't see the egg in the back corner of my microwave when I popped a Lean Cuisine in to cook. I thought a bomb went off.

Can't wait to see what's next.

Love hearing about the adventures of the Traveling Necklace!!

bonachichi said...

Am I to believe that we don't like tattoos here? I admit to sporting a couple, but I'd strangle my daughter if she got one.

East Bay J said...

Hey hooters!

Carol that was a great video and a great movie!

Good choice to start the day off with! Although I didn't get to read the blog til this afternoon at work!

Bonacci I think we have had a topic here about tattoos, and if I remember right, quite a few people have them.

OK, I must go un-grouch MR. EBJ!

night.owls.sb said...

Ibb....
Who me, send you porn? Never!

:O)

Tina...
So very proud of you, it is well deserved.. Congrats!!!!

J/L...
I was thinking the same, how fun would it be to just break into song at a restaurant.

Bonacci...
Well it seems your house is full of tricks for this April Fools day...
and
Glad you are doing ok, sorry about your accident...

Zona...
Next time is snows, which will be several months from now, I promise to bottle some up and send
it off to you, the problem tho is it will turn to water by the time it gets to you, but it is the
thought that counts, right?

:O)

Sacbarb....
The song is just a happy feel good song.. and yes I love the waiters in the backround as well..

Bonacci...
I love tattoos and am the proud owner of two, I just did not like tattoo girl (Megan)..

EBJ...
Maybe Mr EBJ is Pmsing.. :O)

night.owls.sb said...

Goldie..
Hope you feel better soon...

Mo...
11.5 weeks.. lol.. feel better soon..
and
Yes.. its the scene in the restaurant where they are all singing.. so fun!

night.owls.sb said...

Mo...
I enjoyed David Cook too.. I just saw on line that he has canceled two concerts and his performance on Idol 2nite was taped. As he has family matters to attend to. I would think
its his brother, as if I remember correctly his brother was ill....

Dianne/Denver said...

MO: I am so sorry you have been sick so long. It's so hard to get up for work and work all day when you feel lousy. I hope you are on the road to recovery.

GOLDIE: You haven't had the best winter with health either. I hope you are getting some rest and feeling better. My husband is just getting over strep from last weekend. I won't even hug!!

TINA: Thanks, we received your snow about 4PM. It was bad for your morning drive and our drive home. It was thundering, hailing, raining and snowing...very weird. I guess you are sending more over on Saturday so give me heads up in plenty of time.

ZONA; Are you still twirling ribbons? When you get "crafty" we don't hear much from you. You must be concentrating.

I've enjoyed reading all the comments today and the blog was fun.

CAROL: I "might" try and write another one soon as TINA is "encouraging" me to do so. It was easy to do with ZONA AND TINA sitting behind be talking while I wrote but I can't talk either of them into coming out here and helping me.

Dianne/Denver said...

90,,,guess I will march since there isn't anyone around. I need to get some numbers on the "list".

Dianne/Denver said...

WaHoo...Even TINA wasn't lurking around. SHIRLEY: please take note!!!

Mary/MI said...

Diane, congrats on 100!!
Thanks everyone for the good travel wishes. I wish you were all going with me...even Tina lol!

My Dr.(Orthopedics) called this morning. He wants me to see him before I leave. He wants to give me the options on my knee and pinched nerve. I am not looking forward to it, but am glad to finally get to the bottom of all this pain.

I had a great lunch with my SIL and a couple friends today. One was the Daughter of a friend who passed away from cancer a couple years ago. Now she is dealing with it. She is in her late 30's with 3 children. She is a sweet Gal. She sent me a short video that was made for Hospice. It showed her Mother and Father. I don't know how to add links or I would leave it here . I will post it on ms.

Good night every and all my sweet lurkers :)

Just_Lin said...

Bonacci, If I was you, I'd be really ticked off about the egg in the microwave. What a pain to clean up!

Shirley(NCC-1701) said...

Thank you all for the comments on the statistics. I wasn't sure if anyone was that interested in them anymore, but I see we have a few competitors among us. If I've been reading the comments correctly, a certain catagory will become very competitive after Easter. Lol!!

IBB I'm sorry but I don't write down the QOTD. Maybe next year.

Mary have a great trip!

Maureen sorry you are sick. ((((HUGS)))) Thoses hugs were with a mask on of course...I don't want to get what you have :)

Got to go get ready for work. Only five more weeks left.
