Monday Blues

You ever get those Monday blues? I have some of this today. Bills are coming in, need new head shots, restrategize who to recontact for acting jobs, stick to my walking plan, etc. Yeah, so you get the idea. The list goes on and on. I learned a trick from my friend Sean. You have to retrain your mind. Get your mind to think on other things that make you happy. Let's be real, worrying and fretting just wastes your energy. So as I take action, to make my plans concrete. I plan on occupying my mind on the beautiful and the gracious. Here's one of those beautiful things I like to watch. This is one of my favorite commercials. It came out two or three years ago. This is the extended version. I love it also because my Gram use to wear Chanel No.5. Enjoy and have a wonderful Monday.

It's true, so much energy goes into fear and worry! Mondays are OK with me but my situation is a bit weird. I don't have that job to go to which in some ways makes me sad.

That commercial always reminded me of Moulin Rouge, oh how I love Moulin Rouge.

I hope you're feeling less blue Shell. And I will try and not dread the coming winter. I hope we have great birthdays this year fellow Aquarius!

I like your way of thinking!! When you are blue, do something that tickles you pink:-) Hee, hee, hee.

I have to say that I am a little jealous. Acting was a passion for me earlier in life (or another life). My path took a sharp right hook and I didn't follow it. So maybe I will live vicariously through you:-)

Thanks for stopping by my blog today. I hope my pink site tickled you:-)

Hi Carmen, I do my best to just find other things to make me happy. Glad you like the colors and the energy. I try to make Swanofdreamers reflect me as much as possible.

Hey Suzie, I'm out of work too. So Mondays are weird for me too. Actually, I'm feeling better today. Bills and money on my mind that's all. That's the spirit, to look forward to winter. I'll help you with that.
Susie,
You know what acting is a kind of thing you can do until your 100. So it's never too late. Your baking is kind of form of acting. Creating different characters through flavors and ingredients in your cakes and cooking.

Big hugs to all of you.

First of all, a great, positive post.
Hope you are feeling better.
Second, I have seen that commercial many times, but it never made sense to me until I saw this extended version!!! It's lovely!

Hi Judy. So glad you got the commercial better. They have a whole behind the scenes making on you tube if your interested. I am feeling better and more focused. Take care. Thanks for stopping by.
