Happy Monday, Everyone!
It's back to our regularly scheduled lives.
Are you ready?
What is the meaning of life? To be happy and useful.

About Me
- Bossy Betty
- In my old age, I plan to become the crazy cat lady in the neighborhood--the woman both pitied and viewed with a strange sense of fascination by all. That life of fame will have to wait though. These days I am a hard-workin' teacher and mama to two boys.

I guess I'm as ready as I'm going to be. Ready or not, here it comes! haha! Happy Monday, dear Betty. I hope you have a wonderful week. Thank you for the beautiful flowers! :-)
Morning BB and thank you for the lovely flowers and powerful words.
We hope you had a good visit with E.
Hugs Madi and Mom
Happy Monday! Thank you for the beautiful flowers. Yes, I think I'm ready for the season. I say that now...ask me again in a couple of weeks. I'll probably be scrambling! ☺
Tugh to head back to work after playing so hard.I was in Sacremento all weekend.
Monday....YUCK.
Hey! You made it!! You survived Thanksgiving!!! Hooray!!! :)
Lovely flowers, Betty! Good to see you on the other side of the holidays.
Hmm... Most of the time if I am happy, I am not useful (lazy daydreaming). And being useful not always makes me happy (with all things to do!). But can I argue with Dalai Lama?! :))
P.S. Love those flowers, they are useful for happiness !
Just love your cheery Monday flowers. :)
Thank you for the splash of colour.
Very pretty Monday flowers today Betty! I like your quote today too ~ have a good one my friend!
xo Catherine
Happy Monday, Betty!!
Thanks for the pretty flowers, we could use them. We got those rainy days and Monday going on here!
Thank you, gorgeous BB for brightening my Monday up with wise words and beautiful blooms! Take care

My thoughts are similar to siga's!
I am logistically ready. Mentally is another story...should be an interesting class tonight! :)
What a great, simple quote. Thanks Betty!
I needed some color today! Thanks, Betty!
Great flowers and so nice to see. It is pouring rain here so some nice bright flowers sure is nice. Take care. Have a great week.
I love the flowers...you are a genius with the camera, my friend. And I love the quote. It's so true.
Here's another of my favorite quotes:
"The greatest thing in the world is to know how to belong to oneself."
(Montaigne)
A happy and useful Monday to you, too.
chrysanthemum, my birthday flower , love them!
Happy Monday Betty. May it prove to be a wonderful week for you.
Beautiful blooms by Bossy Betty - ahhh, I love alliteration in the morning and I love these flowers and your generous good wishes! Happy Monday to you too.
Uh oh, that means I have no meaning to my life... and you gave me flowers anyway. Thank you!
A true day-brightener.
And to make others happy as well!
Hi Betty - great start to the day .. love the flowers and as Alex says - make us happy too. Cheers - Hilary
Happy Monday, Betty! Thanks for the beautiful flowers and the Dalai Lama's perfect words.
The Dalai Lama has it right. I'm going to put my son who is off work today to the purpose of being useful in bringing in the trash cans from the curb. For his own good, of course.
Happy Monday Betty...thanks for the flower power! Hugs
Stopped by to check on my friend....hoping Thanksgiving had moments of peace and love in it for you.
Why Betty, you've outdone yourself today with the flowers. They are so pretty
I agree with the Dalai #14. What more is there? :)
Thanks for the nice monday flowers! I love the fact that for me, Monday is just like Saturday!
Awesome pix Betty, as usual, nice way to brighten the day...
Happy Monday, Betty!
Have a great week.
jj
At least, be happy!! Love the flowers!
Hugs
SueAnn
Beautiful! Happy week ahead. xx
Such beautiful flowers!
Beautiful- and I hope you don't mind if I steal that quote!
Whoever asks the meaning of life needs a hobby. A useful, happy-making one would be fine.
Beautiful flowers. :)
Lovely mums; I can *almost* smell their fragrance.
Hmmm. Pretty flowers. :D Thanks Betty. :)
