When the flight attendant asked my niece who she was visiting she said "aunt cricket" 😁

Of course, having a/c was the lifesaving joy from yesterday.

Today, after sleeping on an awesome gel foam mattress, I felt such joy at getting some decent sleep. My body is so grateful.

Tomorrow my big leather "Momma" chair and an lovely sofa will be delivered so I'm excited and feel so much joy to have such comfy furniture to sit upon.

three little furfaces raising their heads, blinking, yawning, then throwing their heads back down on their pillows ... they were trying to wake up ... I laughed hard at them ... when they heard me laughing, all of their indicators went up and started wagging ... they are so funny to me :)

The best part of my day.. Every day...
 

My little bit of love found my pic on my daughter's phone and called me! It was adorable!!! She's only 2--mi preciosa!!!

An impromptu pizza party with my gf.

Watching and hearing the aha's and the takeaways...

Seeing some very sweet family pics.

I am *obsessed* lately with custom kicks!

I might have just ordered another pair and I hope I don't explode before they are delivered!

A pretty cool coincidence today. My girlfriend and I were headed back from vacation and stopped in at a favorite place in my old college town for a late lunch. We ordered at the counter, found a seat, and just as we were about to sit, I heard someone call my name. It was my big brother! We had chosen the table right in front of him, and I didn’t even notice him sitting there...ha!

We were both a good distance from where we live (a couple of hours...he was there for work), so it was quite a shock to run into one another. It provided for a pretty funny and unexpected first meeting between him and my girlfriend. :)

I love this story! How fun :)

About a year ago, a man walked in to my work and handed us a check for $10,000. Wouldn't tell us his name. Had his business name on the check. Told us we do God's work and he wanted to contribute. Left the building.

Yesterday he came again, with another check for $10,000. He stayed and chatted and told us who he is and visited with myself and a few other staff, learning about what we do.

Today, I'm in a training. Get pulled out to tell me he called and wants a meeting today at 2:30 with everyone he met with yesterday. Okay so, we all go meet him. He brought in a co-worker because he wanted her to see what we do. We chatted for 10 minutes or so. Then he told us he had such an amazing visit with us yesterday, left feeling so good about the services we provide, he handed us another check for $10,000.

We have so many needs and have many grants and state support that are for specific projects. Money like this that we an apply where most needed is worth 10x it's weight. Such joy.

the little things..

An impromptu date.

Hi ccb-

THOSE are the best, glad it brought you joy!!

Thank you!!!

Actually it was yesterday, I spent several hours with my niece. Just listening mostly. Sure seems difficult to be a wife mother daughter employee etc these days.😊 I didn't down play her issues I just listened.

Joy
 

My homemade bread turned out yummy. I made two loaves and gave one to mom. She had a big smile on her face and that gave me joy.
