bagels and cream cheese...keep it simple

...

While I agree that bagels and cream cheese belong in "five good things" but I don't think it is very simple. I have such a hard time finding just the right bagel. It has to be onion and it has to have just the right consistency. Not too breadish but not too hard either. Sometimes Kroger does them right but sometimes they are just too breadish. One would think that with a big chain they would be consistent

Simple, no, but just the right bagel and ahhhhhh yes, one of my five best things too.

half with cream cheese and half with butter (unsalted landolakes) and don't even think about toasting my bagel. :)

*high five*

I'll take the poker night and the dark chocolate. But I love my Explorer and my meat medium rare. Did you know that everyone in Texas drives a truck and all food is served with Habanero sauce? I don't think Texas is a good fit for me.

1. You are so beautiful to me by Joe Cocker and the moments that went with that song.
2. the 12 post its on my door from my daughter. I have no idea what she has written but she thinks I know. I hope I got it right. I think it is love, play, be and together we are family. But I could be projecting.
3. having a chance to say thank you to someone I should have said it too years ago. it opened the door for us to celebrate what we started together long ago and leave space to each have in our own separate ways now. my daughter is lucky to have her mamma bear.
4. Yellow flat sheet on clearance at target. If I want to pretty up/ cover up my canning jars in the bedroom I can. yellow wasn't quiet the perfect decorating color for the current bedding set on the bed. But it is the color of I think of when canning with friends. Who I miss dearly and am blessed by.

1. The medical team that provided my care during open heart surgery was outstanding. Life becomes quite different when one is totally dependent on others.

2. Really good people - friends and family - appear when one needs them the most.

3. Life changing events - I have discovered - need to be explored...it provides the catalyst for remembering the positive and acknowledging it to the people in our lives and to the entire Universe.

4. Prayer continues to sustain me.

5. The love, compassion, and care extended from you here on the planet has been a great healer for me. Even in the darkest nights in a strange, sterile intensive care unit room...I could feel the rush of peace, prayer and unconditional love that surpassed my understanding.

Five or more good things...

1. A Nyquil induced good night's sleep.

2. Girl time with one of my bff's.... and getting my hair done at the same time :)

3. Sitting on the floor playing with a 2 year old and a chihuahua puppy.

4. Homemade pizzas on the grill & a pitcher of Sangria wine.

5. The sky at my favorite time of day ~ DUSK. When the approaching sunset turns the sky the most beautiful shades of pink, purple & orange... like cotton candy.

1. Dinner dates with a new friend...and it's SUSHI to boot! :)

2. Big hugs from my ten year old first thing in the morning.

3. Sharing the bathroom with my almost 14 year old while we get ready for work/school. She is my shadow these days and I love it. And it makes my heart so happy that she feels comfortable enough to be naked and vulnerable around me...STILL! She trusts me and that is so NOT the relationship I had with my own mother.

4. Sweet text messages from my fiance. She's in LA on business and I miss her so much.

5. There are almost 100 people coming to our wedding. We had no idea we are so loved by so many!! :)

1. Health. It is by far the most incredible gift anyone could have.

2. Unconditional Love. Enough said.

1. Be thankful for friends that you can be your total self with...even if they do call you a dork. :)

2. Make a To Do list then hide it from yourself and go fishing for the day.

3. Find the To Do list.

4. Love and hug on your dog and take them for a walk even when you don't want to. The return is great!

5. Last is a quote but I find it fits here well...
"The next 30 days are going to pass whether you like it or not, so why not think about something you have always wanted to try and give it a shot for the next 30 days?" — Matt Cutts

Letting/ watching that beautiful butterfly go, admiring their colors and grace, feeling blessed they showed their beauty to you for a fleeting moment ... letting them go to bring joy to another.

Watching/ chasing a rainbow just as it's fading ..feeling its magic and the awe it brought for a fleeting moment ...searching tomorrow's cloudy sky with the hopes of a child thrilled at the sight of another rainbow ... a rainbow fading is not always a rainbow gone or joy gone.

Finding comfort in memories of past fleeting moments.

Watching a stunning daddy bluebird protect his young ...

Surviving the recent storms, knowing tomorrow will be different.

Finding two good movies that I've wanted to see in a while...getting all excited like a little kid watching their first wild sci-fy with booming speakers... and loving that feeling reminding me of how my son and I loved watching sci-fy together. We did a lot of bonding over sci-fy.

My silly goofy puppy jumping out of the car at the pharmacy before I could catch her, all excited then totally confused when she hit pavement... She was so comical when she realized she wasn't at home... She makes me laugh so hard! (but nearly cost me my heart when she jumped out) time to carry the crate with me... She and Woo Bear have been my companions all day during a difficult work day...I love their wagging tails!

Getting a very interesting/intriguing message on a board where I posted a "looking for friends" profile... three letters describes the message... Y.U.M.!

Getting a VERY difficult project done in final format today... time to breathe...

Encouraging words from two dear friends...one afar, one near.
