BREAKING NEWS: CRAZY TIME IN HAPPYJELLYBEANS NEIGHBORHOOD

Wow, it has been a crazy time in happyjellybeans neighborhood. After going to New York for book signings for my latest (co-authored) book, Shattered: Six Steps From Betrayal to Recovery, KUTV, Channel 2 in Salt Lake City called for an interview, other stations have called as well. Now, I must go to California to lay Dad to his final resting place. What a great guy. Until then (my return), I began my latest, which will be completed upon my return. If interested in viewing the KUTV tape, go to kutv.com, click on the Thelma Soares sitting at a table speaking into a microphone with the caption, "Thelma writes forword to book or Thelma endorses book." Thank you, Thelma. Thank you contributors to book. Thank you, everyone, for your collaborative effort, energy and support for this important and very timely subject.

And in between all of this, I like to indulge daily in what I refer to as my "Mormon cigarette." (No, I don't smoke. It's a joke: Mormon... pleasure.) Anyway, here is my latest under construction project. Thanks everyone! Bettyanne

Things I Needed to Know That I Did Not Learn in Primary:

Not to expect to shout and still expect to be rewarded.
That not everyone likes me.
To keep my shoes on during important meetings.
That not everyone has the capabilities to grow a foot or two.
That it’s not possible to win every game.
That popcorn really doesn’t grow on apricot trees.

See you Monday. BB

FREAKY BREAKING NEWS: SIGN OF THE BEAST IS COMING SOON

Okay, so I'll get back
to my regularly scheduled broadcast soon,
but,
this morning it hit me...
I wrote down the date, 6/6/5...
A year from today?
6/6/6.

Yes, happyjellybeans.blogspot.com found it first.

Breaking News:
6/6/6 is coming.

Now,
lest you wonder
what happyjellybean's opinion is about this
manywillwantittobeahighlyreligious date?
HJB does not think,
nor will it ever think,
this date means anything more than
just another day in history.

However,
for all those
who will become ever so highly OCD focused
on this date,
they will most likely create
the exact catastrophic events
they are looking for.
Like when I was young,
and my mother said,
"There was once a man
who went around saying,
'The end of the world is tomorrow!'
And the next day he died.
And it was the end of the world,
for him.

So, my comment is,
make every day be your very own 6/6/6,
and choose how you're going to live it!

And, stay tuned...
more entries for happyjellybeans ill forthcoming.
(What a wonderful trip to New York. Whew.)
