1,001 Smiles | Marion Kaplinsky
27 posts
Chockful of wit and wisdom, 1,001 Smiles is a colorfully illustrated compendium of all things happy. In this chunky anthology, the latest in our popular series, wry insights, age-old teachings, and a wealth of humorous offerings are organized by everyday topics such as creativity, change, love, and travel. Readers will find themselves smiling at both the absurdities of the world and their own foibles as simple truths are expressed in quirky ways, such as "There are only two lasting gifts you can give your children: One is roots, the other wings," or "If you have to borrow money, borrow it from a pessimistthey never expect it back." An ideal gift for anyone feeling blue, 1,001 Smiles is sure to elicit a grin, even on the toughest day.

#mondaymoments #litsolace #midwintersolace
@AllDebooks shared this thought and invited everyone for a check in (here or on her page)
Here it is cold. I exhausted because Obi cat woke me at 1am with a mouse he was playing with before eating. What kind of mouse goes in a home with 5 cats??? It was his growling at the other cats to stay away that woke me. I need a nap….

AmyG I am guessing the mouse was cold and looking for food. I will say, I do sleep a little better now that we don‘t have a cat. 🤣 (edited) 3w

#MidwinterSolace #LitSolace

Spreading a little thoughtful cheer with brand new #MondayMoments 😊
It's a very gloomy, rainy, cold day here in Derbyshire. So I'm sending out my own smiley sunshine 🌞 with a check-in.
🌞How are you all?
🌞What have you been up to?
🌞How are you feeling?

julieclair Love this! I‘ve screenshotted it. 😀 I‘m going to make an effort to smile at everyone today! And I will have lots of opportunities. We‘re on a cruise, and the incredible staff that go out of their way to make our vacation special are totally deserving of smiles and thank yous. 3w
AllDebooks @julieclair 😍 Enjoy your cruise. I hope you have a relaxing time x 3w

My dog Scout always makes me smile. I‘m genuinely lucky to have him in my life especially after the horrible accident that almost took his life last year.

Andrew65 Oh no! But good that he‘s still with you to shine a light in your life. 😍😍😍 4y

Currently trying to channel this. Toddler has had 2 tantrums so far, car won't start so I had to fork out £27 for taxi's to and from my eye appointment. The car is currently stuck halfway out into the road because it's too heavy for me and my partner to push back into the drive and all our neighbours are out. And I can't have any of the further tests on my eyes as I'm breastfeeding. Another app booked for 6 months time. 😩

Cinfhen Sounds like u need to hit rewind button....sorry your day is not going well😞 7y
OrangeMooseReads Hope the day gets better 7y
laurieluna @Cinfhen definitely! Currently having 5, stuck the toddler outside in the sun. My partner has nipped out to get a battery charger and jump leads to try and get the car shifted before the bin men come round 😂 *sigh* we were all on time getting ready too. But that's life! 7y

CoffeeK8 So sorry, hope your day gets better 7y
TrishB I had one of those yesterday! My daughter woke up with a massive nose bleed, that didn‘t stop for over an hour - about to phone drs- she couldn‘t get dressed for school it was that bad, she was then late, I was late as wouldn‘t leave her....so we were all grumpy. Hope your day improves ❤️ 7y
laurieluna @TrishB oh no! Hope she's feeling ok today. I wouldn't have minded the toddler tantrums, or even the car if we could have got it started. It's the taxi fare to an appointment where they couldn't do a thing. I also hate getting into cars with strangers even when they are taxi drivers. Anxiety was ☝. ❤x 7y

@CareBear #happytaxdaygiveaway

Thanks for brightening our day with your generosity and the chance to see what makes all the #littens smile!
Bringing a new kitty into the home is always stressful. Two weeks after introducing Gabriel (right) to Gilbert (left), I caught them sharing the potty. It was at that moment I knew we were going to be okay, and I couldn't stop smiling! 🙀
#adventuresofthegmen #catsoflitsy #littenkitten #privacyisoverrated

AmyG Ha! That I‘ve never seen. 7y
CareBear LOL, I‘m glad they‘re adjusting to each other! Thanks for entering. 7y
cherinium @AmyG This was a first for me, too! I took it as a positive sign, though. 😃 7y
cherinium @CareBear Me too! This was, by far, the easiest cat introduction I have ever done. The new boy is a bit challenged in the intelligence department, and I think it helped a lot. He just didn't know that the other cat might not accept him and had zero reaction to the hissing and growling of the first few days. After no response, Gilbert just gave up. LOL 7y
CareBear LOL!!! Only one can be the alpha cat. Seems like only one wanted the job! 7y
