Recently, in my stress management class, a group presented on the topic of Healthy Lifestyles.
A requirement for group presentations is providing some kind of handout for each student.
And because I'm the professor, creativity is strongly encouraged.
This group passed out a balloon to each student with the phrase, "Don't let life weigh you down. Fly high with healthy lifestyles!" attached to each balloon.
Even I got one.
Standing in front of my class and seeing rows of colorful, floating balloons above each desk was one of my favorite moments of the semester.
So cute.
I just love teaching that class.
It makes me happy and has become a real necessity in my life.
You know what else I've decided is a must?
Whipped cream.
The kind that sprays out of the can.
Suddenly a bowl of strawberries or a steaming cup of hot chocolate seems super fancy.
Everyone needs a little extra fancy in their life, don't you think?

That idea for the balloon is so sweet!! I had to do a group presentation on interpersonal conflict recently, and I wish I had thought of something like that for a handout.
And those strawberries and hot chocolate...ooh, I'm craving.
Seeing that you have a new post always makes me happy :-) God bless you and Chas and your will-be little cryings!!

I absolutely love the photo of Abby. Its so darling. I am getting a frame for it and putting it in her room.
Thank you. Thank you.
I wish I could take your class so much.
Everyone does need some fancy and that class sounds amazing!!!
That would have been so fun to see.
Agree on the whipped cream. I was in charge of a wedding last weekend, and I made homemade Vanilla bean whipped cream for the hot chocolate... yum!
i've seriously considered getting weekly to monthly massages at the massage therapy school downtown where my friend is taking classes. $25 for an HOUR long massage. GNO?
Yes! To everything, from balloons and creativity to whipped cream and hot chocolate!
yes, yes, and yes. it is seriously the little things in life, especially when the going gets tough!
Totally agree! Hot chocolate sounds so good right now it's getting so cold in Utah! I just read that you are having a baby! AH congrats Sam I'm so excited for ya!
I love the balloons they are such a cute idea.
When I first saw the blue my first thought was you were having a boy! Then I realized I was WAY ahead of myself and kept reading.
I saw the balloon and thought you were having a boy! I got SOOO excited! But, I was wrong...Loved the story though. And canned whipped cream=best ever! I like to just spray it in my mouth lol
