Laugh!

"Laughter is the most healthful exertion." [Christoph Wilhelm Hufeland]

This kind of tickled me, especially right now when so many of us are trying our hardest to lose weight and get into shape for this new year. Laugh! It can't hurt, right?

In other [sadder] news -- I just got an email from Deseret Book regretfully informing me that my great bargain purchase of the children's Christmas costumes was in fact a mistake. On their part. So sorry, they said. That doesn't help! Dang it -- I wanted those.

But. Laugh. OK. Great exercise, yes?

Laughing is great exercise, it tightens your stomache muscles. I love the quote, and the new blog look, very cute!

Seriously. Without laughter, life would be way too hard and disappointing, I think. It is totally soup for the soul.

I was wondering if it was a mistake since they suddenly had it back to full price. that happend to me at gymboree but they just let me have it. I think they should just give it to you. It's not like it's going to put them out of business and it was their fault. You are right, laughter sure goes a long way to cheer me up.

I love it when I laugh so hard that my stomach hurts. There's nothing better!

If I could just laugh as exercise, I would be one skinny woman! I love to laugh...oh, if only.

That stinks about Deseret Book. I wish they would have just sent it anyway as an apology for their mistake :)

I'm with Nat on this one. Laughing and holding pee in is a great work out!
