As the new year begins I am drawn to think of a character from Saturday Night Live. Her name is Debbie Downer. No matter how good the news is that some one shares, she can show the bad side of it. I think I may be guilty of that a little too often. I need to remind myself to keep my negativity to myself.
There is a lot of stress at work with major blowups occurring between the higher ups. I am determined to be upbeat and not mention the downside of things.
I need to think Pollyanna, Pollyanna, Pollyanna!
Good luck on thinking Pollyanna.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for commenting on my blog. I had never heard the St. Anne, get me a man line until my neighbor mentioned it to my daughter. Guess it worked for her but the online dating site probably helped. LOL.
Enjoyed finding your blog and I am sure you will become a swan.

Debbie Downer is so hilarious! I am a real Pollyanna...for the most part. I can get on a downward spiral sometimes though. I usually bounce back but spankings make me sad and down- until my hubby builds me back up. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind words, FD. I sure do hope you're right about the swan thing!
ReplyDeleteStormy, I read your post about Stormy coating (hugs from one Pollyanna to another. I think there needs to be more of us in the world) somehow Cygnet coating paints a less appealing picture (smile). Thanks for posting!
