Silly Moments (Disney)

Let's take a moment and pause for the appreciation of Disney. I am a Disney fanatic! There's just something about curling up and watching a good ol' Disney movie when life starts to get a little stressful. So, for today, I'll share with you some fun memories of great Disney movies. Enjoy! :)

"If it's not Boroque. don't fix it!"

"The flower that blooms in adversity is the rarest
and most beautiful of all."

"In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun!"

"Think of all the joy you'll find
when you leave the world behind and bid your cares goodbye."

."Like so many things, it is not what is outside, but what is inside that counts."

"Ladies do not start fights, but they can finish them!"

"I am on my way. I can go the distance.
I'll be there someday, if I can be strong.
I know every mile will be worth my while.
I will go most anywhere to find where I belong."

Silly Moments (Olympics)

Keeping a positive attitude is key when going through hard times. But sometimes, it isn't easy. It doesn't matter if it's diabetes, another disease, or if you're just having a rough day, being optimistic and positive can be very difficult. These are times when I take a "Silly Moment" - some time to watch a funny video clip, read an entertaining article, or look at some interesting pictures. 

I have been very into the Olympics recently, so my "Silly Moment" today was looking at some goofy pictures that were taken at the 2012 Olympic Games in London. I hope you enjoy as I share some of my favorites with you. :)

(I am so impressed with the dedication and determination that these athletes bring to the Games. These pictures are meant to show the enjoyment aspect of the Olympics - not to make fun of any of the athletes.)

I love this guy! I'll bet he could eat five hot dogs in one bite!

The Hobbit

I am a huge Lord of the Rings fan. So you can understand why I CAN NOT WAIT for The Hobbit to come out in theaters on December 14! I have started a countdown. If my calculations are correct (adding days together), I believe it's 176 days until it comes out. But someone out there should probably double check that and correct me if I am wrong! :)

Just look at this amazing cast. We meet again with Elijah Wood (Frodo), Orlando Bloom (Legolas), Cate Blanchett (Galadriel), Ian McKellen (Gandalf), Christopher Lee (Saruman), Hugo Weaving (Elrond), Andy Serkis (Gollum), and Ian Holm (Old Bilbo). New to Middle Earth in this movie, we have Martin Freeman (Young Bilbo), Richard Armitage (Thorin), and Evangeline Lilly (Tauriel) just to name a few.

Reading isn't usually a common pastime for me, however, I am proud to say that I am reading The Hobbit and will be finished with it before I see the movie. So I better keep reading...only 176 days left to get this book done. I am enjoying it exceedingly already. :) Sometimes I will but Lord of the Rings music on in the background as I read and I feel like I'm really in Middle Earth! Okay, maybe I just have a good imagination!

I will definitely be writing more in the future about this upcoming motion picture. Meanwhile, you can watch the trailer!
