I don’t know about you, but I’m COLD today… and when I look out the window I see some rather blustery, gloomy May weather with grey skies and all the trees and bushes tossing in the wind (which doesn’t exactly help!). So with that in mind, I thought it was a perfect opportunity to bring some cheer into the day by delving into 14,000 things to be happy about and enjoying some Wildcard Wednesday fun. (And hey, even if it’s all sunshine and blue skies where you are, a little extra happiness is always good, right?!)
Wanna play?
(If you missed the inaugural Wildcard Wednesday post, check it out to see what all the fun is about!)
All you have to do is comment below with two numbers – the first between 1 and 612 (i.e., the number of pages in the book) and the second between 1 and 30 (i.e., the approximate number of happy items listed on each page) – and I’ll consult 14,000 things to be happy about and give YOU something to be happy about! (If there aren’t enough items on the page you choose, never fear – I’ll just keep counting over to the next page so you won’t miss out on any happy goodness.)
Before you jump in and comment, however, know that there are no guarantees as to what you’ll end up with (as you might have guessed from the “Wildcard Wednesday” moniker!) – your chosen happy item might turn out to be whimsical or evocative, silly or inspirational, perfectly timed or completely inappropriate… it might spark a memory, a question, a conversation… or hey, it might even give you an idea for a story or blog post! But no matter what, I think it’ll be fun… and I’d love it if you’d join in!
So, are you ready to play?
Give me some numbers and I’ll give you some happy!
