Teddy surprised me with bowling! We have never done that on a date before...and neither of us had been in YEARS...and boy did it show! ;)
Ran into an old acquaintance there that was on my ex's softball team wayyy back in the day. She is now a manager there and doing very well...
I asked after a few of her team mates that I remember fondly and found out she still speaks to them both! One had a baby boy that came to games with her and he is now in pre school and has the same face he did as a baby... :)
Teddy won OODLES of tickets just as I was lamenting that I had won only 25 playing skee ball...we ended up with over 100 of them :)

Unlocked the front door, walked in, and saw feathers. Don't have a bird.
Big feather duster in the middle of the living room with Ricki Racer kitty girl attacking it.
Think I need to child proof the kitchen cabinets from this feral kitten, also known as Ricki No No

But grrrrrrrr half hr ago. My Joon dog is diabetic. She is on a plenty strict diet. I came home from a massage to strewn garbage on my kitchen floor. She is a big dog and ten and never has she been in trouble but today she got in trouble. I was gonna make her stay out all day..big fur coat. It is raining tho and after three whistles she slunk in for a dryoff and not stopping for a drink at the waterbowl, she made it to her bed in the bedroom.
Hey have a great evening everyone.:cold::

I checked the mail tonight, and there was a key in the box, to open the larger mail box, which means I have a package. I bent down to insert the key, and before I could even turn it, I smelled something deliciously familiar.
After removing the package, I couldn't even wait until I got back to the house, I sat there in my car, and ripped it open. Inside I found exactly what I thought I had smelled, and lots of it. There were 8 packages of a difficult (for me) to find, favorite brand, of rosemary and lavender incense.
I think I remember mentioning them while Gaige and I were Skyping awhile back, I was lighting some not-so-favorite incense, and was going on about how I needed to get online and order some more.
So, bottom line. Gaige made me smile (for like the millionth time), because she really listens. Even when I think I am jabbering on enough to bore the pants off of her, she really listens. :stillheart:

Lots of smiles today. Playing hooky and eating mediocre New York style pizza. Buying baby clothes for the 4th time this week. Cat ears and bells. Hearing from every teacher at my daughter's conferences say that she is a wonderful student. Finding out that even though she used to struggle with reading she is reading at an 11th grade level. Seeing her raise a cocky eyebrow when her teacher read her testing results. Cooking fish tacos while the normal chef watched from hys seat on the countertop. My son eating fish with no faces, gagging, or protesting. Watching TV snuggled beside my love. Warm apple pie in bed. Soft breath on my skin.
Great day for smiles.

Every year it is tradition that my father gives me chocolate roses. This year, I can't have the chocolate. I kinda cracked up a little, because poor ol' dad was a bit stumped. A card alone would have made me happy, but instead there was a card with $160 in it that said "I have absolutely no clue what you like so here, go buy something pretty." Also, the inside of the card was a lovely sentiment that basically stated how great of a daughter I am despite my weirdness lol

I was able to assist one of our East Coast BFP members in locating a close family member interred in the State of Washington. It was a 6 week detective job consisting of information gathering, cold calls, records requests and essentially spamming every cemetary in Northwestern Washington consisting of the word Green, past or present (ie: Green Acres Cemetary, Greenwood Cemetary, Green...) . Even the new ones (Dignity, Acacia) used to be known as GreenVine Cemetary, etc.
The leads came slowly, but finally narrowed it down.
And yesterday, against some amazing odds, the family member was located in Seattle ! The headstone was under one name and the burial roster was under different name.
The smile is this:
I trained my K9 tracking dog on the roads running directly past the site for
years ! I mean less than 5' (yes, feet) away.
And I am still getting e-mails, offers, and suggestions from cemetary's around the state. And I suspect this will be happening for quite some time, considering how many of them I contacted requesting record checks and suggestions.
I still cant believe what a small world it is we live in...

Seeing the sunshine as I woke up, feeling that happy floating feeling all day, daydreaming, that first morning coffee on the way to work, getting complimented, a quiet morning filled with light conversation and really cool clients, lunch hour with my new boss spent sharing stories and dreams for our futures, a hot bubble bath and thinking about my crushes.
I still haven't stopped smiling!

I had a really good interview today. I won't know for a few days if I got the job or not, but I made a definite impression on the business owners (a married couple). I also made a new friend...their massive wolfhound who demanded cuddles and frisbee time in the middle of my interview. Oddly, that place had a feeling of home, plus I am well suited for the position. I'm hopeful as always, but I will leave it to the universe. (I seem to be doing that a lot lately...which has been taking people out of my life and showing me others more clearly. Either way, I am still smiling. :) )

Today was busy at work but not so much that I didn't get a break now and then. I had a delicious homemade lunch, enjoyed a nice walk to the bus while daydreaming, and my mind was feeding off of my floating energy to successfully assist my plans with current/future projects. I finished the grocery shopping in an hour and I managed to save about 65 dollars to get through the rest of this month and part of next.
Did I mention how nice it feels to get a hot shower after a long day?
I am now going to relax, put away the food and enjoy some dark chocolate and tea.

I have so much to smile about!
I woke up and went into the farmers market early. It's indoors but I enjoyed the walk outside from the bus stop. I made a few dollars between donations and bartering my barber services. It feels wonderful to be getting a project off of the ground and promoting what I love doing!
I picked up a few extra hours at work and the time just flew! I had a lot of laughs at work today and we stocked up on coffee.
I got home , managed to send a few texts and messages, daydream, catch up with friends about Valentine's gifts and have a few self care moments before I had to rush to geat ready to go out to a fabulous event earlier this evening. I got to dress up! It's been so long since I got to dress up for something other than to look professional for work. I know I don't need a *reason* for these things but Ijust haven't had much opportunity lately.
I wore a little dress with stockings and strappy heels, my makeup was done in that smokey look to mirror the bluesy jazz music and my hair was curled and styled into what can only be compared to a 50's mens look. I love it!

A wake up text, knowing that I slept in at least somewhat and feeling a light floating energy today to relax even while I accomplish what I want to be working on.

Justin walking our puppy Smudge across the stage in a Humane Society event in Balboa park. He literally stopped and posed twice, and had the place clapping and laughing. I wish I would have stood closer to the stage to catch it on video!!!

A three day weekend. Having a much needed spa day yesterday and feeling divinely pampered. Dinner with 9 great friends at a new Italian place where the food was fabulous, dessert decadent and conversation and laughter light and easy. Having new people in my life that bring out the best in me and letting go of dead weight. Learning the difference between objectification and being treated like an objet and how I am surprisingly digging the first. But mostly, clearing round one of the job application process for a two year stint in Bangkok. Universe, bring it!

Way past smile and all the way to Joy-but I'm lazy and don't wanna dig up that thread ;)
I spent several hours today going to H's high school and J's middle school, and even when the teacher had some bad news (missing assignments, disorganization), ALL of them said something like "What a great/sweet kid, wish I had a whole room of them". That makes me feel like I've done something right (their dad, too).
Even the bad news was fixable-the teachers gave me a list of whatever they were missing, and the online site to check their work for the future. So I feel that even after a rough time, we can be back on track.
Even better was H's art teacher's news. She's top of the class in art and has a natural gift for it. Her teacher will help her prepare for a scholarship-fully paid-when the time comes. I can't force her to go, but I want her to have all the options known.
Maybe it's reading MerryFairy's posts, but I feel like floating :). I feel cautiously optimistic, even with significant challenges ahead. I hope I can be up to it.

That is so very sweet of you to say! I am sure you will do it :) It was so nice to read about you want to make sure the kids have all of the information about their options. You ARE doing something right ;) Maybe it's me and my optimism even with the challenges but it's not impossible to get to where you want to be. Float on! :D

This is *amazing* news and made me smile! I especially love the fact that you are setting things up so that her options are many and open in the future. Brava to you for obviously stellar parenting!

All the noise in the neighbors yard this afternoon. LOL I think ALL eight of their children must have brought a friend home from school with them. I've never heard it that noisey but it was cute and the liveliness over there made me smile.
