making breakfast for my daughter....and eating together at our kitchen table that I managed to put together....

showing her the sights....

seeing a black bear AND a hawk within 10 feet of us yesterday (different places)....my kid is like grizzly Adams...this stuff never happens to me!

My 16 yr old niece calling me and asking me if I wanted to go to breakfast.. And then her saying oh by the way your buying I'm broke.. Lol

A text that said, "Miss you"

I stopped by a little shop this afternoon and found the most unusual wooden Buddha statue hidden behind some other things on the floor.

I've never seen anything like it. It is only about 7 or 8 inches high, and was carved from some sort of wood, but it must weigh at least 30 pounds with a halo around the head. It is compelling.


And for whatever reason, I can't seem to keep my hands off of it.

Words fail me....
 

Meeting a beautiful Labrador called Rita ! She was only young and was in training to be guide dog for the blind. She was in a pub I had lunch in. She lay so patiently under the table, I commented on how good she was but her handler told me she had moved twice and that wasnt allowed, she had to learn to stay in one place until her owner moved. Its amazing the detailed training these dogs under go to be able to do their jobs effectively. I cannot begin to imagine the enrichment they bring to peoples lives.

The whole entire day. Everything that happened. Everything in it. Every single bit - smile worthy.

Spending time with my family from out of town. Seeing the look on my Grandpa's face when he saw my weight loss.

My Mom. She and I sitting and talking and how I phrase things and it just makes her crack up. She said my sister and I have the best senses of humour and always make her laugh with the way we tell events that happen or how we see things.

I didn't realize Tom Jones covered this song.....
 

A guy offering to buy my Vols ball cap at the grocery store. Oh hell to the no. I plan on being buried in it!

Also, my new book biz sold its first 2 books.

Nice emails from friends.

Having a friend over with two children she minds, they were so charming and polite, the little girl enjoyed some time in my craft room getting creative and gave me a big hug when she left and told me she really loved coming here..{it was their first time visiting !} Have asked them back next week....that made them happy, me too !!...I can add whilst she was crafting my tomboy daughter was enjoying a game of football with the lad, win win situation !

What made me smile today?

Knowing that in less than two months I get to spend a whole month visiting my family in Boston. I haven't seen my sister or her twin girls in over 2 years. And I get to get fat on all the bad american food I can eat!

i got a package in the mail from my sis...it was a movie..
