Going to PetsMart for cat food and treats, and coming across a sugar glider and feret festival inside the store! I think I was there 2 hours just watching the little babies. Yes, I want one of each...color. LOL! :hangloose:

*Helping a colleague
*A surprise morning conversation *Completing an assigned task *A fantastic class discussion--with laughter *A nap with the kitty |
Ms. Tabitha came over today with her big ol' bag o' paints and canvas....and for a little while, we just sat there ~ in the sweet quiet ~ and did our thing......
It was a nice thing...... And the kitties are now lookin' at ME with the look that says...."Um....yeah....why can't YOU give us good rubs like Auntie Lori???" |
Sleeping In Sports on TV Just relaxing |
A very special friend's confidence in my abilities along with his willingness and patience to teach and guide me over yet another terrifying hurdle...

I'm taking a summer class that requires an assignment done each day from now until June 10, then two weeks of face-to-face classes. I thought I'd missed the assignment for Friday, which would have meant no 10 points :( (makeups not done). I was shocked to find it still up, and openable tonight, and I got my full credit! Hello, "A" for this class!
Besides that, today was day 3 of going to the pool with the kids, and letting them do their thing while I waterjogged and worked out. Long, long way to go to any semblance of fitness, but it makes me feel gooood. I think I need to add to this thread a lot. |
Things that brought me joy:

Only been up for a few minutes: waking up and seeing my beautiful child sleeping. So grateful! Fills me with joy!

Little Brother came over this afternoon to help me try to fix my tv issues, but I'd already bodged a quick fix at about 3am and forgot to let him know, but he did bring my moving in present with him too :cheesy:
:flyingweed: Then later on, Mum came down for a cuppa tea and a natter, it was great to catch up and we got to talk about everything else I need to do to truly put my stamp on this house to make it all mine. Well, all Tiggers, cos, really, she rules the roost... You never own a cat, you serve 'em!:playingcat: :rollcat: :ballcat: |
The simplest thing...
My velcro-cat, Maxwell, sitting on the back of my chair, paws on my shoulder, watching the screen as I type, and occasionally nuzzling my ear while purring.....Although, I could do without the claws hooked into my shoulder.... |
I have a cooker, no more cooking in the microwave! :chef: :veggie: :2butch: :freak: :linecook: :chef2: :chemist: :eating: :cooking: And, later I should be able to start using my kitchen sink ... it's been depressing not being able to do anything other than emptying the dishwashing bowl into my bathroom sink :| |
Wowzers! I got an email from the dean of my masters' program, saying I needed to apply for graduation. What? I thought I was graduating next May. Nope, six weeks from now :D, after I finish up my summer classes, not after my year of mentored teaching. Yay!
:cheer: |

Puppy!
Our friend from Alaska is visiting for her family reunion. She brought with her a ten week old black Husky puppy, who she rescued in Alaska. Her sister that lives locally will be adopting her. Laerkin and I are pup sitting this week while the family is out of town for their reunion. |
Introducing the Frigidare Gallery gas range....
... not only does it have a convection oven, but also one of those snazzy middle burners so I can use the ginormous cast iron skillet!

What brought me joy today:
* My furkids
* Nature * My hummingbirds landing on my back, head, shoulders, and walking on my hand |
It seems as if the back yard has turned into a huge bird nursery, as all of the parents are supervising their fledglings flight training and trying to instill a sense of responsibility for their own meals. The black birds are loud, the robins are relatively quiet, and all kinds of lessons are taking place in each corner of the space. It is entertaining and I enjoyed watching all of the parents and their children for about thirty minutes today.

What brought me joy today has been spending the day with two of our nieces. They are 10 and 12 and are lots of joy to me.
More joy: a friend brought us homemade chicken and noodle soup and I feel great today!!! |
Bonding with the nephew & sister-in-law....even when I was deliriously tired. :)
My honey is a great driver getting us home safety when we all fell asleep in the car... |

Coming home from the lake to find , someone left a hibiscus plant on my front step. I promptly planted it in my garden.

What brought me joy today...
After a funfilled weekend with a bestie, I soaked in bathtub with my favorite bubblebath goodies, put on my favorite well worn pjs and was curled up in bed at 8:00 pm last night. I can't tell you the last time I slowed down long enough to be able to sleep 10 hours.... and it felt GREAT! |
I'm enjoying my second day off and am anticipating learning lots of new stuff this week to help me be a better BIGGER manager.

Ohhh what joy!!
No one bothered to tell me that the ceiling has been fixed at the office... after spending a month relocated elsewhere.... until I walk into the office yesterday to wait on a Tech person to bring my new computer; and discovered all new ceiling tiles installed and all the construction stuff gone... my first thought was "Oh what joy!! I get to work from my actual desk and office tomorrow!" :blink: .... Later that day, the maintenance man stumbles through our area.... I asked him "what did they do to get it fixed?" The damage was so bad, I thought they'd need a new roof! His response: "They just seemed to hit the right spot with more black tar." :blink::blink: Ohhhh what joy!! I get to work from my office today!! And get to wear a rain poncho INSIDE the office after last night's storm! There's no way they fixed that roof with just black tar! But it brings me joy to finally have a working computer and access to the office again! |
joy
The smell of fresh cut grass.

A phone call that has left me with eyes wide, unbelieving, in shock, and out of breath from my insurance company.
