Welcome to my blog! My name is Mary Ellen Pierce and I want to invite you to Get Jazzed & Joyful about who you are, every day in every way! I believe that no matter what you do in life, it is important to believe in yourself and your goals and to realize it's okay to enjoy the journey and have fun along the way!
Along my journey I have discovered my inner artist to help me create expressions of myself using collage, altered art, mixed media and scrapbook techniques. I have enlisted the aid of my inner cheerleader to keep me motivated to be the Best ME that I can be!
And I want to inspire others to realize that when you get Jazzed and Joyful about being You, then what you do will turn into success, prosperity and happiness!

Be Good to You

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Today's mission should you decide to accept it is: Be good to Yourself.
Treat yourself with love, patience, and kindness. Pamper yourself with a few quiet moments just for you. Tickle your own funny bone by reading something funny, watching kids at the playground, observing your pet or watching a funny program or movie.
Whatever you do today or this weekend or wherever you go, simply: Be good to You. When you take the time to be good to yourself it makes it easier to be to be good to others.

Affirm:
    I choose to be good to Myself because I am Worth it!

Have a Great Self Care Weekend!

Lighten up and Smile!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Today's daily thought is compliments of my son who has the most wonderful, humorous bumper sticker on his car:
'When you are upset with someone try walking a mile in their shoes -
                              because then -you are a mile away - and you have their shoes.'

Keep a sense of humor today, lighten up, smile, laugh and enjoy!

Affirm:
     I deserve a light heart and a happy soul today!

Have a sense of humor Wednesday!

Just Lighten up and Laugh!

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

An average five year old child laughs more than four hundred times a day. An Adult? Fourteen.
Do you think that's why so many adults need laxatives? Loretta LaRoche

Your mission today and this holiday is to find reasons to laugh. To Lighten up and enjoy yourself. Find the humor in the little things. Laughter is not only good for your soul but is healthy for your heart. Laughter de-stresses our entire system not to mention providing a wonderful attitude adjustment for ourselves and those around us.
So this Holiday go for it! Find a reason to laugh!

Have a laughter filled Wednesday!

Make a point to laugh

Get Jazzed & Joyful Today:

Today is about the gift of laughter. With the holidays approaching we can sometimes focus on all the things we have to add on to our schedule, all the things we now have to do to get ready. We can become very somber and serious.
Laughter is good for the soul, good for the heart, good for those around you. It is an excellent stress buster for the holiday season, for day to day life and to allow more joy into our hearts and minds.

So today's humor is brought to you by Loretta LaRoche:

We live in a world of excess, in which how much we own defines who we are. I'd rather BE "too much" than buy too much. It's so much easier. I'll never have to have a yard sale to get rid of myself.


Indulge in pleasure whenver you can. Eat dessert first, take a nap in the middle of the day or watch a squirrel fall off a feeder.


For years I heard my mother's stern voice in my head whenever I cleaned the house; "Make sure you clean the underside of the toilet bowl!" I finally realized that no one that short was ever coming to visit and I didn't give a damn. What voices do you carry in your head?


An average 5 year old laughs more than 400 times a day. An adult? FOURTEEN. Do you think that is why so many adults need laxatives?


No one respects a martyr unless they are giving their life to save another. Believing that people are going to canonize you because you cleaned the house or spent extra hours at work is not the pathway to sainthood. I have yet to see a statue called "Saint of Perpetual Responsibility"


Why do normal people take workshops on how to deal with difficult people? Why aren't the difficult people taking workshops on how to deal with the rest of us?


If you think the worst and get the worst, you suffer twice. If you think the best and get the worst, you only suffer once.


Accept the things you cannot change, Change the things that you can - And Laugh at all the rest.

Have a Light and Humorous Monday!

Keep a Sense of Humor

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Today's daily thought is compliments of my Aunt Rose who thankfully pointed out to me that I sounded so serious lately. And then when I went up to the store I saw a bumper sticker on a car that reminded me of one my son used to have on his old car and it just confirmed that a change in mindset was needed.

The bumper sticker said:
When you are upset with someone try walking a mile in their shoes -
                                         because then -you are a mile away - and you have their shoes.

So keep a sense of humor today, lighten up, smile, laugh and enjoy!

Affirm:
    I deserve a light heart and a happy soul today!

Have a sense of humor Thursday!
