a chocolate covered marshmellow peep!

Mtn · 03-15-2011, 10:35 PM

Listening to her giggle at me, I love that sound!

moxie · 03-15-2011, 10:57 PM

After 2 months of pondering, sending emails back and forth, phone interview, driving 200 miles into the mountains, staying in roadside motel and having a 4 hour interview and lunch with an offer made in the first 10 minutes of the interview that I wasn't comfortable accepting and getting up the nerve and confidence to request negotiations and going back and forth, I finally got the offer I wanted. Looks like I will be moving to Appalachia in July!

Gráinne · 03-16-2011, 03:54 AM

Well, two days ago, but I just got back.

The service at Arlington for my brother. I cried, sure, but I knew he would have just loved all that formality and ceremony. It was one of the most moving moments of my life-and my kids' lives, too. I felt totally at peace about sending him off like that.

PumaJ · 03-16-2011, 10:53 AM

Kayso, this is really about last night. Went with my daughter & a couple of friends to see a performance by the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater.
Beautiful, strong, and incredibly moving. Brought many smiles:-)

My 7 month old great nephew braxton! he is spending the day with me =)

DamselFly · 03-16-2011, 12:08 PM

what brought me joy today? waking up and not feeling nauseated and having a horrible migraine.
waking up to my new furkids-a whippet who has wings for feet, a cat who rasps instead of purrs and is pregnant, and big Cece who loves affection.
waking up to warmer weather, which helped me breathe better.
just...waking up with anticipation of all the new things this day might bring!
DamselFly
oh,yes, and some new clothes!

What brought me joy today...

Walking downstairs this morning to find the sun coming through the french doors off the deck, seeing the flowers in full bloom and at least 10 butterflies around the jasmine. I took it all in, smiled and felt peace.

Silly weekday morning rituals to wake my honey up and that sleepy smile that makes my world just feel right.

Being able to puppy/house sit for one of D's aunts this week (and even making some extra money, too). It might not sound like fun, but this woman has a bathroom I would kill for. I see many soaks in her big ol' tub and glasses of wine in her garden.

Arwen · 03-22-2011, 09:26 AM

Reading PinkieLee's post brought me joy.
I think a nap will too.

DamselFly · 03-22-2011, 11:07 AM

what brought me joy today was having my dog crawl under the covers and collapse against me. having these two new dogs in my life have done more than nything to alleviate the loneliness in my life!
namaste,
DamselFly

cinderella · 03-22-2011, 01:36 PM

I can so relate to this, DamselFly...they are precious gifts, our pets. My 6-month old Bichon-Frise, Pinky, is my heart. She keeps me laughing and smiling all day. They are, however, a big responsibility, and require alot of work. The love part is easy - how can you resist those trusting, loving eyes. You are their lifeline - they depend on you for everything, just like a child. But these children never grow up - I think that's the best part. Good luck with your kiddies - you'll all bond and get closer with each passing day, and you'll wonder how you ever lived without them.

80 degrees of pure sunshine

pulling weeds, spraying weed killer, mulching my flower beds

planting beautiful spring flowers in my pots

Just a hint of sunburn across my cheeks

finding a heck of a good deal on solar powered lights for my flower beds.

having multicolored Easter looking tulips, sunflowers, daisies around my mailbox that look like "peeps on a stick" and they are glittery!!!!!!! Cute, pretty with just a touch of tacky.....perfect!!!!!
