Do anything fun? I learnt this past weekend that FUN is really important. It&#8217;s like a battery re-charge for the heart. I went to an Italian Wedding \u2014 well, not a real one! Just a fun musical theatre one and I had so much unbridled FUN that my heart was singing and dancing for days later! You gotta PLAY. Whatever it is that makes your heart feel joyful, DO IT!! The happiness component of the heart needs its exercise &#8212; badly! Or so I think. Play, just like you did as a child at your own birthday party.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.boomerbabelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/38785FFC-BB57-437B-8477-5AF90DC54816.jpeg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1658\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1658\" src=\"http:\/\/www.boomerbabelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/38785FFC-BB57-437B-8477-5AF90DC54816.jpeg\" alt=\"38785FFC-BB57-437B-8477-5AF90DC54816\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boomerbabelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/38785FFC-BB57-437B-8477-5AF90DC54816.jpeg 1600w, https:\/\/www.boomerbabelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/38785FFC-BB57-437B-8477-5AF90DC54816-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.boomerbabelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/38785FFC-BB57-437B-8477-5AF90DC54816-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.boomerbabelife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/38785FFC-BB57-437B-8477-5AF90DC54816-1024x768.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/a>The other thing I learnt this past week is the way our minds can be our own worst enemy! That was a BIG one for me!! For years I would tell myself I was the worst parallel parker in the world! I would never do it! HATED doing it, so gave up many great parking spaces because of my aversion to PP! Since they raised the cost of parking at our office to $1.50 per hour, and there was free parking on the street outside&#8230; Hell to the YES! I got great at parallel parking!! In fact I am so in love with Parallel Parking now, it makes me laugh out loud!! Who would have known?<\/p>\n<p>The moral of the story: \u00a0Be careful with the tenants you allow to rent your head space! Only GOOD ONES! Because yes, YOU CAN DO IT!! If you really want to. Have a fabulous week and be sure to tune in on Wednesday to meet my Wednesday Wow Woman!<\/p>\n<p>Hugs Galore,<\/p>\n<p>Patricia xxx<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi Guys, Hope you had a lovely weekend!
