Lots today! I got to go to the most fantastic art festival and met loads of lovely people. The weather was great; sunny and breezy. Waze took me the scenic route home and I discovered the most PERFECT Halloween tree ever. It looks exactly like craft stencils and mats when they want a 'spooky' tree. I drove through a wind power turbine "field" and found a recycling plant I didn't know about. I got a quick workout in early this morning and a ton of steps in at the festival. I looked super cute today! I got a 33% discount off a cool print because the artist forgot her phone in the car and didn't have enough cash to break what I had. I had a delightful chat with another artist who does paintings and prints that make my soul happy. She also invited me to her house to look at her work. I worked on a craft project and had play time with Gracie. Most importantly, I DIDN'T HAVE TO WORK and the office was closed so there's no chance of anything getting messed up today!

I am happy, happy, happy today!!!

The warm sun and doggie kisses waking me…
My apartment will be ready soonly…
Getting ready for school if only mentally….
The weather is holding out a bit longer…I’m not quite ready for winter. I never am.
Feeling hopeful!

Reading my sister's texts. She and Mom live together and they are like two old married people

Working in the kitchen with my partner and my best friend/roommate. Both people I absolutely adore and have felt their love and support as I've faced grief head-on recently. Working in the kitchen to make a family meal just made my heart happy.

This is a wonderful mindset and way to process life. I know you’re up in heaven now, but reading your post today made life sweeter. Miss you, sweet friend. ❤️

I saw a tshirt that had a pic of a cat peaking out and the caption was "no way,

I am staying inside, it is too pepoly out there". I could see a cat saying that,

so cute. My cat as well, she talked all the time and I miss her.

My Mom made it back to her nursing home today! She has been sprung from the hospital, and they say they have her medications right now. She was pretty sleepy on the transport ride from the hospital to the home, and then she slept for several hours. We suspect they gave her a cocktail of sleeping meds to get her through the trip. But at dinner time she sat up and ate well. I am so relieved she is back where we can visit her.

I had a very good (dare I say kick ass? 🤔) interview for a cardiology position I’ve been lusting after. I’m hoping to get a call with an offer tomorrow.
The other job I was offered has the most laborious on boarding I ever saw in my life. I literally had to have documents notarized 😳

My bff last night reminding me...."Never make someone a priority when you're just an option"...:candle:

a steamy cup of coffee

My brother called and is coming into town tomorrow maybe for a couple of days and we can have Xmas together, yay. See I got a call and am having a visitor coming here so to heck with the rest. I said I had no idea who.

My pile of gingerbread cookies

My little granddaughters came over for our Christmas today. For the first time there were no toys under the Christmas tree! What they wanted and what we got them were new laptops! They were so happy they squealed! They are getting alot of toys from mom and dad, and Santa, so I didn’t see that they needed them from us too. Sure did put a smile on my face!

Seeing the whole family together having a good time. There were lots of things to smile about, but mostly I remember my 7-year-old niece opening her presents.

Meeting a sweet litte basset hound at the dog park today. Monty took to her like a duck to water. They speak the same language :)
(Monty is a coon/bluetick hound)

Not today, as I've managed to successfully keep myself away from people in general, but yesterday I got two compliments from a teenage cashier on my nail color and my MATH tee.

Then, later in the day, I got a strange look by a middle aged Englishman who told me that I was "visually interesting." He also said he'd never wondered about another person's watermelons before so I suppose he had his own quirks because who wouldn't be interested in what someone was doing with dozens of watermelons??? My first thought would be that they worked with Gallagher.

For reference, I had on the MATH tee with a black, white and grey plaid button up unbuttoned over it and with the front ends tied in little knots and a black, nubby jacket on top and red plaid stretchy pants, black socks and my Pride shoes. The pants aren't exactly what I have but mine were a Savers find and likely no longer made.

It's close enough to get the visual, though. Basically, a nod to my time in Seattle.

Oh, and before that, I was at the hair salon and one of the new stylists I have dubbed Christmas Grimace due to her purple hair and Xmas tree headband...told me that my makeup and the way I did my brows today reminded her of Ariel. I could do a lot worse than a Disney princess. :thumbsup:

After work, my day was filled with compliments and fun discussions about my attire and general vibe. It was a very, very good evening!
