What brought you joy today?

[PinkieLee]

What brought me joy today....

Eating lunch at Luby's today and watching a lil' 3 year old girl and her grandmother. They were both dressed all in pink and the lil' girl wore a sparkly tiara and had a balloon tied to her wrist. I smiled as I watched them both giggle in delight as they shared a chocolate pudding.

[Miss Scarlett]

Finally released by my doctor after my H1N1 "adventure"!!! :cheer:
Yep, got a clean bill of health - no lung damage beyond a little scarring that he's not worried about!:cheer:

The Red Sox finally won a game!

Seeing Harry Connick live in concert tonight. He is such a talented musician I was very impressed and I actually felt like I was in New Orleans with him and his Orchestra ..... great show Harry

[Liam]

Adding five minutes to my treadmill time, reaching a goal I've had for months. :D

[MsTinkerbelly]

I won 1600 at bingo last night! My daughter and I are off to do more prom shopping, and my Kasey is playing poker in a tourney at a local card club...such a joyful life!

[KatieStar]

Waking up knowing that it's going to be a beautiful day and the sun is shining, and spending a little time with my baby in the midst of our crazy schedules :)

[MsTinkerbelly]

Bible study, church and lunch out with the gang. Now off to the movies...

[Oneida]

Ending a phone conversation with "I love you" causing the rat terrier to wake up and come to me with his little tail wagging. Joy!

[Pixie]

Seeing and hanging out with friends I haven't gotten the chance to in a while.

Seeing a genuine smile on my dad's face for the first time since this all went down.

[Blade]

Working in the yard, brainstorming, bouncing idea's. It's amazing to me ......it's like peanut butter and jelly

[Kenna]

Working in the yard, brainstorming, bouncing idea's. It's amazing to me ......it's like peanut butter and jelly

YES!! We worked hard and got all sweaty & filthy today; moving loads of soil, installing fencing, I got to drive my little red tractor :motorbike: around with its little red trailer getting everything together for the raised garden and mini-greenhouse...but I don't recall getting my hands dirty with peanut butter and jelly.
Oh my! does this mean you planted one of EntycingFemme's Peanut Trees?

[AtLast]

Seeing joy in the smile of my 95 year old neighbor while petting my dog. I bring him to have "tea" with her sometimes and they both just have something special going on. This is the only time my little guy allows himself to focus on another human- he is quite loyal to me.

It is as if he realizes how much this time for Emma to touch and talk with a dog means to her. He settles righ in next to her. I don't mind that she repeats the same stories of her last dog while we visit at all. So obvious that that pooch was her best friend.

I swear, my little guy had the same look of joy in his eyes. I just know he would drink tea for her if he could.

These are the things that matter most to me.

[Kenna]

I was so tickled today to find a Teeee-Tiny little frog today. He was smaller than your thumb nail and could have fit in a thimble. He is more than welcome to live in my garden and eat all the bugs he wants!

[socialjustice_fsu]

was spending a wonderful afternoon with my precious mother. I took her to see the 2011 Senior Follies at our local junior college. This is a group of older folks that work all through the year to present 3 performances in a weekend of older types of music, dance, themes, along with a full rendition of patriotic songs. Their costumes were all handmade as well as their stage pieces. A gentlemen (age 91) sang a rendition of Frank Sinatra's "Fly Me To The Moon." Mom applauded throughout and I mostly cried because of the vitality, commitment and talent of these 100+ seniors as they sung and danced their way through the 2 hour presentation. Afterwards we ate a lovely dinner and then she came to my house and we hung curtains in an 11 foot high ceiling living room.

I have concluded:

AGE IS JUST A NUMBER.

And, thanks, Mom. You are my best friend.

I decided I wanted to be more present in life; to use all my senses even in routine, mundane tasks. I wanted to strive for excellence even in things I didn't have to do all that well, just get them done. I was tired of feeling half alive and not achieving anything.

So, I decided to approach my education law work fully engaged and going for excellence. I think I succeeded, I feel happy about my work tonight, and heck, I feel joy :).

Today I found joy:



While walking the dogs on a perfect Texas Spring morning
In the song of a very amorous mockingbird bachelor boy
In a video from Peter Jackson about The Hobbit
In watching Batman and Flynn wrestle and play
In knowing that even though I'm out of creamer, I can afford to go get more
Because I am a professional Joy Seeker (I have a bumper sticker that says so!)
By remembering why this thread was started
Reading my friends teasing one another

[MsTinkerbelly]

The things that brought me joy today.....

The little white dog licking my toes as I walked past.
My sleepy girly giivng me a hug and reminding me she goes to her Dad's house this weekend.
Waking up as always with my Kasey snuggled next to me.
The Friday light drive to work.
The wonderfully warm sunshine on my face.

[scootebaby]

calling my WC nurse,and receiving a call back within 15 mins informing me that the MRI has been approved as has the neurosurgeon.

[Soft*Silver]

My greatest joy has been actualized...I have found my horse. Her name is Kali. The Goddess of Change. She is a Dapple Grey Percheron/Haflinger cross. She is 14.3 hands high and is 8 years old and is safe and sane. She is broke to ride and drive. Now...the icing on the cake....I found my dream boarding stable and made my reservation today. I am the ONLY boarder. Very private, family farm on ACRES of flat trails filled with lakes ponds, creeks in lovely woods and open fields.

I was going to get another horse, a smaller haflinger but with all these trails, I needed a larger, stronger horse. And decided on this one. She is a beauty. Once I can get a photo I will post one.

dreams do come true...

[JakeTulane]

I found/am finding joy in being alone this morning.:tea:

[Kenna]

Although it made me sad not to bring him home....
today while at the farmers market, I got to hold and cuddle a very sweet, tiny, soft, gentle baby bunny that had curly whiskers .... he and his companions were shivering before I picked him up 'cause it's so drafty at the open market.... when I held him, tucked under my chin and all warm in my hands, he settled down, closed his little eyes and I could feel him relax and trust me not to drop him.
He was so cozy and sweet.
They said if he had a little purple mark in his ear, he was a little boy. I loved his soft ears and feet... his plump little belly... and his unique coloring.

After a long hard week, this brought me much joy.... even though I knew I couldn't take him home or couldn't give him a good home. I gently kissed his little head and placed him back in with his buddies.... I needed that soft spot in my life right about now. I work in a field that you see many hardships and ugly things.... his sweetness made my day.

[JakeTulane]

Being given a new day.

Putting words to what was already known.

The buds coming out on the trees in the front of My home.

Laughter.

4.5 hours.

A sweet compliment from a friend in regards to My jewelry.

Finishing the unpacking.

Cutting through red tape and the results were in My favor.

"Will you still respect me in the morning?"

Friends - tried and true - the kind that stay for a lifetime.

Thoughts of My family - those here and those no longer here. I miss them with all of My heart.

The hope of more joy tomorrow.

Words with meaning, always.

[EnderD_503]

Speaking to my cousin on the phone today. Since my grandparents died when I was in my mid to late teens, I haven't been back to the farm as much as I used to, so haven't hung out with him as much as I used to. We used to be really close as kids, and still keep in touch over the internet. He's always accepted me for what who I am and I him (he's a rather feminine gay dude and was first kind of rocky for him coming out to his jehovah witness family lol But they accept him now, thankfully), so we've never really kept secrets from each other or judged each other.

Anyways, I haven't spoken to him in person or on the phone in maybe two years since he lives in Ottawa, but I was really glad that I got a chance to talk to him today. We spoke for like an hour and a half, which is weird for someone like me who hates phones lol!

[WingsOnFire]

What brought me joy today..

Was teaching Sunday School class and loving the unique way 4th and 5th graders act. I love my kids. Their enthusiasm and down right craziness always cracks me up.

Watching 38 children from pre-k to 5th grade get on stage and sing while signing the words.

last night I was talking in a parking lot with some friends and out of the darkness came a black kitten...she swirled like a shadow around my legs. It was so dark that when I said there was a cat, they couldnt even see her! I reached down and pulled her up and they were all suprised, Like I had pulled a rabbit from a hat! She clung to me lovingly. Here, I find, she had been hanging around there for a few weeks and people had been trying to catch her and no one could. But she had chosen me to come to! How odd! Well, she is in my dining room, under my alter, hiding at the moment. She is 6 to 8 months old and pregnant. And yet, very well kept. Not even wax in her ears. Yet hungry. Ate ravenously. Poor thing. Someone dumped her when they discovered she was pregnant. I am trying to find her a home but she will stay with me if no home is found. And she will be spayed regardless. After the babies are born. Aye. Smiling....a wee black kitten. She is so sweet. Her name is Lucy...

my house is filling up....did I mention I have a chihuahua?

It's rainy and the thunder is softly rolling so I shamelessly enjoyed a midday nap. :)

Free flowing words received via text. (f)

[socialjustice_fsu]

Sunday's in quite a while. Sunrise service on the beach with my beloved mother and lovely daughter at my side. Then on to a bountiful Easter Sunday brunch overlooking our gorgeous bay. A visit to my aunt who is in the hospital...and recovering nicely from a health crisis. On to my apartment to hang more curtains, string lights around the tops of my kitchen cabinets to add some soothing ambiance to the room, repacking the smallest storage shed off the balcony to where not even an ant cannot fit in now, dinner at Denny's using the AARP card for that discount...on to her house and watching Joel Osteen speak about leaving a legacy for generations to come of kindness, compassion and faith.

I could not have had a nicer, more peaceful day than today.

Thanks, Mom. Thank you, my dear daughter. You lift me up and hold me tight.

I love you.

What brought me joy today...

Walking downstairs to let the doggie out, and hearing the soothing sounds of the wooden windchimes that we bought during our last beach trip.

Opening up the french doors to the most beautiful spring morning we've had in weeks. (cooler temps, low humidity & lots of sunshine).

Looking out over the backyard at all the beautiful colors of the flowers in full bloom. Seeing a cardinal in the birdbath & a robin pokin' in one of my flower pots.

Sleepy smiles that are only for me.

The best iced vanilla coffee (well, after I added a lil' more french vanilla creamer).

[Diva]

It was so lovely to step outside this morning to brisk temps and low humidity......water my roses and other flowers and see my tomatoes growing strong....filling up the birdbath and hearing the birds singing their little hearts out!

Ethel ALmost let me pet him! He WANTS to.....but it's a trust thing for him, I'm thinkin'....

I am SO pumped about heading to the beach this weekend! I only got down there once last summer due to being sick. The beach feeds my soul, if you know what I mean...

I got to go out for lunch with a friend.
Then I went to Walmart I hate that store to buy Scotts Weed and Feed (liquid and pellets) for the grass. :veggie:
Then I came home and mowed the front yard in a cool looking pattern.
Then I sprayed on the liquid weed and feed. (f)
I know, I know...small minds are amused by small things..

[JAGG]

Yesterday was the most beautiful day all year. No wind, awesome blue sky and all sunshine about 85 degrees. Sitting on the patio, right after sunrise listening to a dove cooing for hours. So peaceful while I read the paper and had coffee. Then working in my garden all day. Still have alot to do until I'm satisfied with it. But I love working outside. Everything is so lush and green with the rain and my grass seed is growing fast and filling in the bald spots nicely. And I got to use my new grill!!! Had some friends over for dinner, perfect ending to a perfect day .

[msW8ing]

Waking to a gorgeous sunrise, my mentally challenged mini scottie sitting on my chest with his nose to mine looking me in eyes.

Bin Laden has been killed!!

[SmoothButch]

My sweetheart surprised me good tonight. We went out to dinner and she had a group of our friends there waiting to surprise me for an early birthday dinner.

:bday:

[Medusa]

What brought me joy today?

Knowing that we have an Ah-MAZ-ing TechBubba in our beloved Linus. He slayed the server dragons and got us back to a good working point and I am SO. VERY. THANKFUL. FOR. HIM.

[PinkieLee]

What brought me joy today...

Waking up to another beautiful day, filled with sunshine & cooler temps (yay for keeping Texas summer away a lil' longer).

Celebrating my mom's birthday today, with a lil' surprise party for her at Bingo tonight before work.

Celebrating a friend's birthday today, too... with girl's night tonight ~ with trashy reality tv, pizza & frozen daquiris.

Finding our passports, after they were "misplaced" during the move 2 months ago. Weeeee let the vacation destination search begin!

[Arwen]

Today I found joy:



While watering my new plants on my patio
While walking my dogs because Batman insisted on picking up a stick that was twice his length
While breathing because that's a privilege some don't have any more
While focusing on what is in my hula hoop
While playing on the Planet

[MsTinkerbelly]

Today I found joy in the warm Spring sunshine.

[Soft*Silver]

waking up in my own house, with my pets surrounding me and my sub in the house to take care of me. Grateful to be on THIS side of the surgery, its OVER and now all the good stuff follows!!!!

[weatherboi]

[Abigail Crabby]

A Loving Email
The electricity coming back on after last nites storm
Hittin the Doc's office and finding I've lost 5lbs since last months visit :praying:

Leaving silly messages on an answering machine ;)

A long lunchtime walk on an absolutely beautiful day with a certain Shih Tzu...

[msW8ing]

Taking my dear friend who is a Stone Butch to Hys doc to get a hernia checked out..as we walked in Hy hands me Hys cell phone, coffee cup, keys to hold my hands were full so when Hy handed me Hys wallet I just stuck it in my bra (yes it is a second purse for some of us lol) Forgetting all about it when the doc mentioned surgery, needed to go get appt for ultrasound..So off the hosp to set it up we go..as Hy is getting out of my car, Hy asks for Hys wallet..I pulled it out of my bra and Hy looked at me like :| I said geesh it's just boob sweat..not missing a beat Hy says.." Wow bag balm" roflmao ahahahahahahaha

A free haircut :thumbsup:

[Gráinne]

I'm DONE with this semester! Finished my last final, and should have all A's. That means one more class this summer and my student teaching, and that master's degree is bagged! I'm so relieved.

[wcstone]

I was strangely relieved..the kind of relief that turns into joy, when I saw that a huge ant colony had multiplied beneath my fourwheeler seat; I realized no more work could be done on the bike today.

[Mtn]

It was just one of those days that did....damn I love it when that happens!

[Miss Scarlett]

Last night - received a text after turning in for the night that resulted in a lively late night dance around the den before going back to bed with a huge goofy grin on my face cuz' i'd just had soooo much fun!

:bellydancer:

[sylvie]

- having my boundaries pushed, and really following through, because of the intense love & trust we have - regardless of my self image issues - feeling like the absolute most beautiful, desirable girl in the world to Him & working on a present for Him for when He got home which indeed used every little bit of confidence i had within me to do... Seeing His reaction & His being so anxious to get it *smiles* (sorry for taunting You all day Daddy LOL) - and then being so so proud of me -- and one downright happy guy! *blushes*

[PumaJ]

A very sweet wake up call from my boifriend, this morning filled my heart with joy:-)

:eyebat:

[StillettoDoll]

I was informed today from my boss, that I have over $1000 in my tip jar at work Wooohoooo!
That's a first. They must love me :clap:

[Kenna]

After a very stressful, unexpected drive to "the big city" for what started out as repairs to my work laptop, but ended in replacing the laptop and then finding out the replacement doesn't work either....

I ended the day in much joy because I got to go pick fresh strawberries and have a relaxing fun afternoon!! And I got to enjoy a VERY beautiful, cool, sunny day and even found a rainbow after dinner!!

[AtLast]

I was nominated for my town's annual "Best Garden Contest! It is about our front yards- what is seen from the street.

LOL... I'm turning into an old fart gardener!! But, it is nice to get recognition about something I put a lot of pride and work into. Probably someone in the big houses with big budgets will win!

[Blade]

a phone conversation.........talking.........listening.... .....thank you Ma'am

[Miss Scarlett]

Free tickets to a new adventure!

i am sooooooooooooooooo excited! :cheerleader:

[Arwen]

I have a family of these (http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab186/Woodbadge213/Birds%20-%20miscellany/P1000415.jpg) at my bird feeder this morning. The parents are still feeding the baby but trying to entice it into eating from the feeder on its own. The baby would rather sit on top of the feeder fluttering wings with beak gaping. They are Black-crested Titmouses (Titmice?) and they are bringing me such joy this morning.

[Random]

Last night was the Blue October concert...

I love Blue October

I forgot to schedule myself off for above concert...

*frowny face*

I worked last night...

*frowny face*

This morning I am treating myself to a you tube Blue October concert...

*Happy Face*

there may have been chair dancing involved...

*Happy Face*

I am now in a great mood and am going to go wake my baby up to share great mood...

*Happy Face*

Mitmo's Happy face :)

[RockOn]

The Cheeseburger Hamburger Helper I made for breakfast this morning - didn't burn it either. I made 2 boxes so to have some for next week.

[MsTinkerbelly]

I found joy at being taken out for breakfast, and in my cards and special treats. My ex-husband even called to wish me a happy mom's day. I am so lucky!

[violaine]

phone call, blue skies, digging, and hibiscus.

[Andrew, Jr.]

Dino and I were watching the hummingbirds at the feeders, and like Arwen, we too have oodles of titmice at our feeders. I built a bluebird nest, and have the small baby bluebirds sticking their heads out of it to watch Dino and myself. I guess we're a sight to see with the frogs.

[AtLast]

So happy- my dog is doing much better today. Realized I had some Metacam and it is doing the trick!

[JakeTulane]

Road trip. :carride:

My Mom. (f)

Chinese take-out.

Willow Trees.

Meditations. :glasses:

Tea turn-ons. :tea:

Knowing tomorrow will bring a resolution.

Candles burning here in the livingroom, reflecting in the picture window that looks out over that beautiful lake.

Soon - wandering to the deck to watch the evening descend.

[Nina]

it was lovely to spend time with my son today...
he took me to point reyes....a beautiful drive, a stunning day, great food and the company of my boy (who is a man) who fills me with pride and love...

I could 'go on', I won't though...

just to say that it fills me with joy to see that, as I made all efforts to share and be my Best Self with him, it worked...I did the best I could, as I could...

anyway...it was a time shared which brought me joy...and for that, I am thankful....

[StillettoDoll]

Blaze put on a tool belt , ohhh wait that sounds funny.
It's cute , I cant help it.
And told me Happy mommy day. awwwww

[Kenna]

an absolutely beautiful day.... all day....

[Medusa]

I had a little joy explosion on the way to work this morning.

I got to work at 6am to get my day started a little early and came through the security gate to start heading toward my building and noticed some newly-planted rose bushes and such in the gardens.
I work on a huge campus with many buildings and have always appreciated the care and attention that my company pays toward making this a nice place to work.
This morning, I passed someone who had also come to work early to jog around the outside track that skirts the outer rim of our security-gated campus and another person who was doing some type of yoga out by one of the huge 100-year old oak trees.

It made me feel really, really thankful to work at such a beautiful campus where it's secure and well-groomed with plenty of room and opportunity to run, bike, do yoga, or use the free gym.

Joy for my job. That's a rarity but I'm lovin' it today. :)

[Andrew, Jr.]

Snuggling with my 2 boys on the soffa this morning. They are such lovebugs. I am so very blessed with them.

[Sweet_Amor_Taino]

I am enjoying my :tea: coffee and listening to music and posting beautiful pictures to my BFP friends.

Its my day off I negotiated with my client a three day weekend.. starting this weekend I will always have three day weekends. This is one of the benefit of having your own business gig you could arrange your schedule... well sometimes.

[Legendryder]

Bob is running around nakid!!! (Sans harness) He is quite busy rolling around in the bed and generally amok sort of behavior. Punk.

Running for 3 wonderfully solitary miles with our baby boydog Brando. No one but him, me and a few random squirrels and a deer along the trail. It's time to start shedding the 10 lbs. I packed on in the past year of school!

My best friend of almost 26 years came down for a visit (spur of the moment type of thing). She brought her girlfriend down to meet me.

Lots of joking around and laughs were had by all!

[Liam]

Helping my Mom fill up five planters with annuals.

[Random]

A Dr. Appointment and a RX filled...

[Sachita]

Absolutely, without a doubt... THRILLED to meet another Queer Farmer in MY AREA!! Two wonder men that I can sit and have a conversation with about all the things I love and they love too! Two conscious queer men that have the same concerns about the environment, love preserving and canning, animals and MOST of all, enjoy sitting out by the fire, drinking wine, getting tipsy and talking about queer things.

[Canela]

Winning the biggest basket full of pampering goodies at the brunch today!
The red rose in that funky vase that we were given as a thank you gift. Brought me great joy...:rrose:
and when I got home my furbabies were so happy to see me!

[Starbuck]

I went to take my dad out to lunch and he ended up paying!
Then I went to help my mom take a shower so she could go to the doctor.
After that, I changed the linen on her bed and folded the rest of the sheets for her bed.

[Oiler41]

My time in purgatory with my current employer is coming to an end after one very long year. Today I was offered a kick-ass job with a kick-ass Fortune 500 company, close to home, complete with an excellent compensation and benefits package and really great perks. I couldn't be happier as I prepare to embark on what I fully expect to be my final career employment transition. Life is so very good!

[Gráinne]

Trying to teach a student how to calculate the surface area of a rectangular prism, and that moment when the eyes light up, and they're off, doing the work themselves. I love that moment when they "get it".

[sweetfemme247]

watching becoming chaz. helps me learn more

[Camo Eagle]

A clean bill of health from my trans health Dr.
Even gave me refills on the T so I no longer have to be seen ea & every refill. Very nice and knowledgeable young man.

[Jesse]

I get the nicest rep comments from people on here and that brings me joy. :)

[Leigh]

Using My mom's computer for awhile and coming on the Planet which I missed so much ....... but My happiest bit of joy was brought to Me by the woman I love, and no one can match that :-)

[Rook]

Beaker the Muppet brought me joy...

That very nasty thunderstorm that rolled through around 2am last night did NOT flood out my little nest of Momma Chickadee and babies. I've enjoyed watching Mommy and Daddy feeding the chatty tiny babies every morning.

[Venus007]

Sitting out with the birds at zero dark thirty and enjoying a cup of tea
The outside cat wandering by for a pet (or to spy on the birds in the tree, or both)
The morning quite before my amusement park of a day starts
and as usual for me in any of these lists, a train signaling in the distance
I am so happy here, my job, my attitude, my future, they all are quietly joyful

[Massive]

I just got my own place, it's the perfect size for me and the furry one and it's in the same village as I'm living now ...
No furniture, or cooker, washer, shower ... but damn, I have my own home again!
:seeingstars:
:clap: :cheer: :freak:
:happyjump:
this is what tiggles will be doing in her new home ...

When i came home tonight i found a Red Tailed Hawk wing feather on the ground outside my apartment!

[SmoothButch]

I got a belated birthday card in the mail today. It was a nice surprise.

[Miss Scarlett]

This morning i had the chance to babysit a sweet little abandoned Himalayan kitten a client and her boss brought up to my office before they went to Court. They found this poor creature shivering in the parking lot...client is a vet tech and naturally her boss is a vet...they estimate the kitten to be about 5 weeks old.

When my boss arrived before Court i told her about our little guest and she just about knocked me over getting to the box under my desk...i have a funny feeling a certain little kitty will have a new home very soon. (My boss had to have her beloved Himalayan put to sleep late last year.)

[Leigh]

Wendy's for supper, yummy :)

[Liam]

Looking out the kitchen window this morning, and seeing two goldfinches in the red willow tree.

I have several events this summer, and was hoping that perhaps by some strange twist of fate [miracle], I would be able to make [afford] the Reunion in October...but I was just "voluntold" that I am going to Haiti then for an entire week! OMG! Haiti!

Rebuilding the community there, schools, medical attention, water, homes, clothes, shoes, food, all the things we take for granted they still don't have re-established...so I have been voluntold to go and help and serve...and sorry all much as I was looking forward to it, I'm going to Haiti. I'm going! OMG! I'm going to Haiti! :) :cheer:

[Leigh]

Taquitoes for lunch & having My laptop fixed :-)

A bag of Mike and Ike Cotton Candy :)

[JAGG]

Today my joy was found in nature as it usually is. I got my grass cut just before a storm rolled in, great timing!!!! It started to rain pretty hard, but instead of closing the garage door , I walked out in it and contemplated going for a run in my sweaty grass cutting clothes. Instead I sat on the front step and listened to the rain. I watched it water my flower beds. I love the smell of the cedar mulch especially when it's wet. I thought how beautiful and green the trees and grass are, how the flowers are so colorful. The very sidewalk my grass covered sneakers were setting on ,just a few short months ago, I was breaking my back and freezing my toes, as I shoveled the ungodly amount of snow. Everything was dead and bleak. It doesn't even seem like the same place. Winter seems like a bad dream. It doesn't seem like it even happened , doesn't seem like it could have happened. Just a faded memory now. Nature amazes me.

[Camo Eagle]

Being out in the rain.

Camping Talk.

Picture sharing and ideas for renovations.

Memories of going fishing for the first time with My maternal grandparents. I got a 10lb Northern Pike and that thing almost pulled Me from the boat. However, My Gramps insisted that I reel it in with little or no help. Even though My Gram was beating him with her purse the whole time. I landed it. One of the best memories I have of being with My Grandparents.

I would like to go back to that lake this Summer and camp.

That unless I hear something positive in the next couple of weeks I am going to move. This brings Me joy because I have wanted to move out of state again for awhile.

I have finally learned to make decisions based on My needs and not those of My family or friends. I need to make them for Me.

Listening and Understanding... and making a promise.

Hearing the thunderstorm arrive and the rain beating against the windows. Knowing this is going to be a good day for sorting and repacking.

Looking forward to this coming Saturday. It will be nice to get away for awhile.

The sharing of words and life's stories and finding commonality. We are all alot closer than we think in some aspects of our life's history.

Words with meaning, always.

[Sparkle]

Oooo my Sunday just became *nearly* perfect...

The newest season of my favorite television show is already streamed on netflix. YAY!!!!

I've done all of my chores around the house and my errands outside of the house. The dog is well walked; and it is dark and rainy!

I have every justification and rationalization I require to have a bit of a netflix marathon.

[DomnNC]

Now that you mention it...they did taste a little yellow...:winky:
