Finalizing the plans to spend christmas with family in California... The first christmas in 19 years that all my brothers and their children, my parents, me and my son will be spending together...
Sigh.... |

I'm gonna go find joy at the Home Depot and then the laundrymat. No really! :) Seek joy, y'all. Eschew negativity. Embrace delight.

Looking out the window and seeing the "FOR SALE" sign in the neighbor's yard. I'm so glad they are moving and am so hopeful I'll get some rockin' new neighbors!

While my Circus Peanuts were no longer on sale (BOGO), I did manage to grab a bag that was so fresh, the sugar began to melt before it touched my lips.
Now, that's some sweet joy. |

Oh JOY!
We brought home a stray miniature Dachshund yesterday to keep it from getting run over and I put an ad up on Craigslist last night. Well, just now I sent the owner a pic and the owner was screaming and crying into the phone "THATS MY DOG!!! THATS MY DOGG!!!!!" So, we tested the dog by calling it by it's name and it flipped the fuck out, peed on itself and rolled over on its back. "Tadpole" goes home tomorrow morning. YAY! |

Avery crawled into bed with me this morning, that is my JOY!

Today my kindergartners had their Thanksgiving Feast..... my assignment was to sit and make head-dresses with native american symbols on them with the children (yes i know all the non pc stuff and the Pilgrims when you say had the "indians" for thanksgiving it really means a Hannibal lechter type of had......and Thanksgiving did not become a holiday until 1862 as a way to try and build etc etc etc) But I am not the classroom teacher I am just the Computer Teacher who was asked to help out............ so I bit my tongue and made headresses with the children all 35 of them....(did I mention I am allergic to feathers?) Well after all the headresses, and bonnets, and napkin rings,,,and turkeys and feast platters with interesting things on it by little kindergarten fingers that were everywhere....we all sat down on the floor doing the criss cross applesauce sit... and we each took a turn saying what we are thankful for...and one little boy... said: I am thankful for Dr. Thoreau........ and then he blew me a kiss...... I was quite touched; and he :candle: my :heart: ....
Dean,,,,whose cross cross applesauce is just not what it used to be.... |
..the cutest smile ever this morning..

Calling my mama at 7 am and singing "Happy Birthday" to her at the top of my lungs! Turning my dogs loose to try to decide which of 8 squirrels to chase through the yard! (picture the "whack-a-mole"game there!)Being able to run 3 miles with no pain in my hamstring! Knowing each day is drawing me closer to leaving this place and moving on to the next phase in my life!

Knowing I have a new job starting on monday and ordering my scrubs, and getting my haircut.

Today joy came in a little grey suit wearing white spats. Even if he did try to eat my yarn, he still brings me joy.http://web10.twitpic.com/img/4392746...92e-scaled.jpg |
Getting to work today, for the first time in over a week.
Watching the excitement on my students faces from such simple pleasures (an Elmo sing along doll) Seeing how grown up my 7 year old daughter is getting. Today she was supposed to go swimming at daycare, because of the flooding I had to pick her up early and she couldn't go. She started to cry when she saw me. As soon as I explained that if we didnt go home now, we might get stuck in town she says... "Its ok Momma, I can try to go swimming tomorrow." |

A lovely new friend in a hair stylist who not only stayed over her shift 3.5 HOURS to color, highlight and cut my hair, it is the most lovely cut I have had in my nearly three years in Virginia! J... you brought me joy!

My aunt I have been back in touch with for less than a year now inviting me and Cynthia to her Church Bazzar tomorrow.
It is a huge thing that she has invited me and my BullDyke G/F to her little country church here in Tennessee. I am humbled and touched...and maybe can score some yummy home canned goodies :) |
Sitting in class, looking up, and seeing her. It feels good to know she cares enough to come and see how I am doing.
Knowing I can come home, climb into jammies, study all weekend, and all will still be right in our world. Walking into our apartment, knowing it is a drama free zone. There is no bitching, head games, or bullshit allowed in here. It's refreshing. Having her son call and ask me to help him with his final test. It's nice to be accepted by her son. |

I found joy today by remembering a healed friendship. |
Today I found joy in being able to vent to a friend on line and while I was blabbering on, my phone rang. It was her, telling me that she thought I might need to hear a friendly voice. How right she was. Today, my wonderful friend brought me joy.

It rained all day here in Austin Town...it was a slow, steady, quiet rain.....so calming.....I love a rain like that......and it gives me joy to see my yard quenched.

My hair is blonde again and all is right with the world. :bow:

I'm finding joy tonight in hearing the laughter from my
Mom, in cooking for my family's early Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow. And, in knowing that there truly can be laughter even through pain. And, in knowing I get to have a second Day of Thanks with friends on Thursday(without having a heavy heart, hopefully):bunchflowers: |
