No Grumps Allowed!

No Grumps Allowed!











Today is May 6, 2009, and it's the 8th

Annual Great American Grump Out!



For 24 hours, you're not allowed to be

grouchy.









That means there is supposed to be no

grumping, no frowning, no complaining,

for one entire day.







In stressful times, smiles do help us cope.







Can you give up the grumpies for a day?







For more information about the Great

American Grump Out, check out Smile

Mania!













I am still determined to be cheerful and happy, in whatever situation I may be; for I have also learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends upon our dispositions, and not upon our circumstances.  ~ Martha Washington

I have co-workers who are about as bad as teenagers. And I can't even send them to their rooms or ground them!

I am not allowed to be grumpy.......does that mean you will take my teenager for the evening? He tends to make me grumpy.

"That means there is supposed to be no grumping, no frowning, no complaining, for one entire day."

Maybe if it had been the Great American Grump Out Hour, you would've had a chance. But a whole day without grumping or complaining? Not this year, Marilyn. Best wishes for next year, though. Keep the dream alive!
