1. The standing ovation Peet-e & Jane received while we performed Josh Groban's song, "YouTube- "Thankful"- Josh Groban Lyrics". We decided to relate the song to Washington state's Referendum 71, which was approved by Washington voters in last November's elections. It's our "everything but marriage" act. Peet-e & Jane are founding members of our chorus and have been together 32 years. You can read a bit about their story in this (http://www.seattlepi.com/lifestyle/320543_inlaws21.html) news article. They are both in their 70's. During the song, they do a short speech about Ref. 71 and being thankful for it passing. It was SO COOL to see everyone clapping and cheering for them! :)

2. My new shoes, which helped make standing and singing for 2.5 hours a little more bearable.

3. Molly Cat. :cat:

One of my coworkers who has had an especially difficult year knitted me the most beautiful scarf! I love it and am so touched at her thoughtfulness.

The mother of one of my housemates sent a pressie for me! Again, so thoughtful!

My boss won't be eating Christmas dinner alone. We're having it together! And I'll be getting time and a half while doing so! Bonus!!!

Tomorrow is payday!!!

I think I've got all my financials under control so that I may be able to go 'adopt' a Christmas tree angel at one of the stores. I love picking out the goodies for kids. I feel very blessed this year and passing on a little bit of love and good fortune can only make it better.

#4, your ways, I must learn, grasshoppa.

Then again, I'm a browser-stroller, so maybe not to keep, but just to know HOW you did it. :D

I LOVE Pizza Hut. It's my favorite pizza joint.

Walgreens is open til midnight tonight and from 9am-6pm tomorrow in my area. Good to know! :thumbsup:

Also in my area, the grocery stores rotate a schedule so that every Thanksgiving and Christmas, there is one store open for most of the day. This time, it's Albertson's. I like Albertson's. They are much cheaper than QFC or Safeway.

I want a :rudreindeer: for Christmas. I've wanted one since I was oh, about 6. The big guy never leaves one behind though.

I hope you get a reindeer for Christmas, Gemme! :)

My shopping is easy. I make a list so I know *exactly* what I need and stick to it. If I hadn't stop to browse at Ross, I would've been done an hour earlier.

There's Walgreen's across the street. I hope they are open in the morning--I forgot to pick up canned food for the Molly :cat:!

No reindeer in my stockings or any packages that I can see but I'm not disappointed. After all, where would I put her? I don't think it's legal to keep reindeer in the garage. :blink:

A new year and the ability to make a fresh start (or do a do over) in several areas of my life.

Guac and salsa and chips. I'll finish them off tonight.

Music. It soothes the savage beast as well as making the world go 'round.

My honey, though he feels terrible today. At least I have no worries of him not being safe. The TV, bed and (damned) Snuggy can only hurt him so much.

Reflecting on myself and this past year. I'm not doing as badly as I thought I was. :admin:

Happy New Year's, everyone. :cheer:

1. I finally put my writings on a flash drive (after losing the last one).

2. Even though I found out a program I wanted to participate in was shut down before it got off the ground, I learned about a new program that won't save me as much money as the first one would have, but still save me more than I'm dishing out now. I signed myself up pronto before this one bit the dust too!

3. My boss burped in my face and it was putrid, BUT he had helped me out with someone I didn't feel like dealing with, so I held my breath and let it go.

4. I have more time to play online tonight because my last check in called and said they won't be here until much later.

5. I have Corn Pops and Fruit Loops for dinner! Of course, this was not my intended dinner but I ate the second half of my sub earlier. Luckily, I luv me some Pops 'n Loops!

Warm rain. It only rains cold, stinging rain here, even in summer.

Fall apples. They never taste so good as they do in the fall time

Having the landlord next door flirt with me. LOL. Cute too...

watching my daughter's first classroom as a teacher flourish..the walls and bins and shelves and windows are bursting!

enjoying each last day with my old dog...grateful for one more....one more...one more...

finally hitting half way thru the book I am writing (guesstimate)..sighing with relief...taking longer than I thought but as long as I finish it, I dont care how long it takes. I just want the sense of accomplishment.

...flipping through a stack of about 600 CD's my dad had left me and spotting a Frank Sinatra sax greatest hits...it's playing at this moment.

...facilitating a family session of 6 highly opinionated siblings and the outcome was resolve, purpose and insightfulness regained. It was a miracle and an honor to witness.

...knowing manners and etiquette are alive and well and in some cases, coming back en vogue.

...seeing folks wearing purple today.

...sliding into bamboo, 100% rayon sheets on my bed. Divine, indeed.

...surges of feelings of peace and complete contentment during a rough day.

...PM's from some of the best people in the world.

...the ability to read and learn.

...the honor of telling one of my elderly patient's today (He is a WWII Vet) "Thank you for serving our country. I love you." We both cried but it was that grateful kind of tears.

...watching the sun rise over the lake this morning. The sky had been finger painted in hues of orange, pink and blue.

...the ability and capability to feel love.

Strategic trick or treating.
