FREE FRIDAY

Free Printable

Hi guys. The day started out with the sun shining and I took the opportunity to enjoy a field walk with the hound.  It was a good one! Absolutely gorgeous out. Now, not so much. Clouds have taken over I'm afraid.

Ah well, can't change the weather.

What we can change though, is our attitudes.  I stumbled across this quote by Teddy Roosevelt today and felt it was worth sharing. 

So here you have it, free printable wall art just for you.

Print it, hang it and be inspired.

Personally, I'm with Teddy. I'd rather at the very least try, and fail, than to not have tried at all.

I've got a video for you today that I recently discovered and it busts. my. gut.  I can't get enough of it. If I need a laugh, I watch this. I definitely to host a 'lip-sync off'. Go full screen on the video so you can appreciate the expressions.  Is it me, or do you love Jimmy Fallon too?  Click here if you're reading via email.



No big plans for this weekend. Some logo design work at my desk. Maybe a game of Yahtzee.  Not sure about a campfire tonight as it is a little breezy at the moment, but you know us, if that changes we'll probably be out back stoking the flames. Some housework is on the weekend list too. Did I tell you I cleaned my closet last weekend? Well, mostly. Still a little to do on that front- switching 'summer' clothes out for 'winter' clothes, but so much better already. It was seriously out of control. 

What about you? What's happening in your world?

Ciao for now,

PS- I think the sun is trying to make a comeback!

Hey gang. Ah.........Friday. It's not that I don't enjoy each day, because I do, but there's just something about knowing it's Friday that just makes you happy. Well, at least it makes me happy.

In that spirit, I thought I'd spread some happiness today.

I have something for you, so you can spread a little happiness too.

I set this notecard up, two to-a-page so you get the most out of each sheet of paper you run off. It fits in a standard notecard envelope.  You can download the pdf HERE. {This is meant for personal use only, please do not edit in any way or resell. Copyright Pamela J. Bates 2013.} 

Feel free to share a link to this Free Printable Friday post on your blog, twitter, facebook or pinterest.  Enjoy and spread some happiness!

So, the internet is a funny world. Last weekend, I got a message in my inbox that I had a new twitter follower. This in itself is not unusual. However, the follower is Andrew DeSilva, the winner of the 2012 Australia's Got Talent. Of course I had to have a listen, and I'm glad I did.  Click here if you're reading via email.




No plans for the weekend other than a ton of stuff to get done at my desk and in the yard.  I'll just keep checking things off my yellow legal pad list. Speaking of my yellow legal pad list, you all left me hung out to dry. Nobody played along here yesterday. Excuse me while I go cry in the corner.

Bonus points for my blogging pal Andrea, who played along on her blog Strong Southerly. You rock, girl!  {By the way, we're quite partial to my left foot too. Inspiring story, brilliant performances, fantastic movie. And it's set in Dublin, what's not to love?}.

Ciao for now,
