the art of living cheerfully with Delilah

delilah

This fabulous girl with the sexy legs is Delilah. She is the new face on my ‘soon to be released’ e course ‘the art of living cheerfully’ because, well, she is quite cheer inducing. Delilah made her appearance today in the ‘Roid week’ pool and was welcomed with open arms which tickled her pink and made me happy because I had to get up at 5 in the morning to take her portrait.

Oh today I am in love with words such as…

grandiose
bombastic
quirky (because i can be at times)
smudge and fleck , gleaming and swooping

oh and ‘pulchritudinous‘ too but I don’t know what it means. I shall look it up this morning and let you know.

What words are you in love with?

Happy Tuesday:) and more happy tuesday

    Hmm, this made me sit and see what words came to mind as today’s favorites. Who knows why these are what I thought of, but here we go! =)

    crisp
    flamboyant
    azure

  2. madelyn

    I think Delilah is rather flamboyant

    and that word ‘azure’

    is delicious

    One of my favorite words is discombobulated, it’s how I feel a lot of the time. :0)

  4. madelyn

    discombobulated is fabulous

    better than bored silly:)

  5. suzanne

    i love:
    persnickety
    smitten
    fortuitous

  6. madelyn

    i am smitten with persnickety and
    fortuitous is rather becoming

  7. Andrea

    It’s hard to pick favourite words but I find that sometimes words just jump into my head and stick there. A few of the moment are:

    diffuse
    crinoline
    bombastic

  8. madelyn

    crinoline’s are quite bombastic actually

  9. Marilyn

    Love Delilah in the pool of water. I have Delilah’s twin standing in my roses.

  10. Ashley

    Delilah is very lovely and most certainly makes me smile. :)

    Some favorite words right now are:
    enigmatic
    flutter
    slow

    I know slow is such a normal word, but my life is moving very fast right now so all I can think of is slow.
    :)

    Clockwork, quiver (noun), adoration, pumpernickel, and calliope. (These are the most recent additions to a list that I’m making.)

  12. madelyn

    ohhhhh girls

    i am making a notebook now just for fresh words

    i adore….flutter, quiver, calliope

    much adoration for these:)

    today my word is jaunt, which just sounds so much more fun than trip or journey. a jaunt to dallas, a jaunt to the lake. jaunty. no serious clothes would be worn for a jaunt.

    and ps – i have a picture of delilah in her wedding dress. you must ask her about it sometime. :) (she looks much happier with you.)

    I am smitten with Delilah. Clearly she is a master of the art of living cheerfully.

    I like the word rapprochement. I can never recall the meaning (and I am pretty sure it’s not a word that I could easily work into a conversation), but I love the sound of it.
