Thursday Thoughts: Universal…Kiss?

Wallyworld today because Friday is a holiday and there will be lots of people stocking up for the long weekend. That said, they might be there today for the same reason but I go early during their “quiet time”. Jake and I can usually get through in decent time, provided we don’t bump into a lot of the associates who love Jake. If that happens, we stop for pets. Anyway, it’s Thursday. And and the Universe has thoughts. This one has been languishing in my files for a while. I came across it and yeah. I’d saved it with a note and I’m posting it became it’s still true. My note: Because this made me laugh the first time I read it. And it made me laugh again. So here ya go…

What if, Silver…

Every “no” meant “not yet”?

Every loss meant “even more is on the way”?

And every disappointment meant “pucker up, buttercup”?

Yeah, precisely –

P.S. Actually, Silver, pucker up anyway.

I always thought the saying was “Suck it up, buttercup.” And…uhm… Pucker up doesn’t always mean get ready for a kiss. I mean, y’all have heard about the “pucker factor,” yeah? 😆

    ROFL… You kill me. I may never think of that phrase the same way again. (Yeah, I’ve always thought it was ‘suck it up, buttercup’, too.)

    Lots to ponder on today. Now if I can just get into my pondering mood! I know it’s somewhere down in the bottom of this cup.

    I always thought it was buttercup too. The Universe can change it if so desired 😊. I did not know the “pucker factor” so I just looked it up. Do you think the Universe is trying to keep you on your toes with the threat of fear? Oh Universe, you don’t have to threaten me. I’m already afraid😉.

    I hope all went well at Wally. I’m going to brave the wilds tomorrow morning.

    It is so darn HOT and still humid.

    Have a great afternoon.

      I woosed out and didn’t go. I’ll either go tomorrow or I’ll go only for a delibery order. I’m not buying meat or produce so there’s nothing I have to pick out myself. I’m so lazy. The only thing is, if I have it delivered, Jake and I don’t get a Starbucks run. I’ll have to think about it. Tomorrow.

      Hope all is well and you’re staying cool!
