the irony of paying my exhorbitant bills and then putting a Ronald Reagan stamp on the envelope :rofl:

paying my bills and having a decent amout of $$ left over :jump:

Being able to move around better today than yesterday.

Getting off work for the weekend. :)

a call from my sister :)

Setting up an appointment to begin getting Social Security this summer. :)

Talking on the phone to someone I hadn't in a long time.

Talking to a great Pixie friend.

My boss, who is also a great friend, teasing me about a time in my life that was once very dark, and knowing that we can both laugh about it now.

Finishing my student teaching portfolio

Talking to a friend...who initially said he couldn't come to the wedding...and learning that he is going to come. He's also bringing his wife and two kids. I am sooooooooo happy they'll be there!!!!! :D

Pantyfanatic's deep love for panties

A LOT!

coming home to a tiled backsplash that looks beautiful ... it's a shame I won't enjoy it for long

getting my sprinkler system running and hoping it will take care of my sad excuse for a lawn

seeing my raise on my paycheck

being able to have my front door open to enjoy some fresh air

Seeing lots of people we know at the local Relay For Life Cancer Walk

Reading that. Just helped with a Relay for Life Benefit dinner here about a week ago.

Maddy's comment about getting the house fixed up....and knowing I experienced that too.

grocery shopping w/o the rugrats.

recognizing one of the testing officials as a parent of a child I taught years ago and catching up.

my pretty new putter and 5 wood!

Realizing I am almost done

knowing the summer is back.....the ball game that I went to today.

diggin in the dirt

See that TinglingTess reached 11,000 posts. :)

Reading some of the descriptions of "thingys" in Lil's LOTR thread. Too cute!

A breakfast of Baked Lays :D Really...how far off from hashbrowns are they?:D:D:p

LMAO Lil. I'll just stick to my chocolate chip cake with white icing and coffee. :slurp:

^^^her making my choice sound healthy :p

Not silly at all. My boys heat potato chips, put ketshup on them, and ... voila ... french fries. (I tried 'em, they do taste almost the same ... crispy of course :))

Oh yeah ... what made me smile was our cat coming in trying to encourage me to give her a treat. (I'm gullible ... so I did). :D

Finding out that I really didn't have to go on an exploration of sealed boxes to find what I was looking for. ;)

God did, it's his day.

Good point, Cjack. I'll vote for that. :thumb:

a surprise visitor this morning......

Walking out of our hotel room and hollering "WOO WHOOO" and peeling out of the parking lot after the spring breakers kept me awake alllllllllllllllllllllllllll freakin' night by doing the same to all of us.

oh yeah, and winning some cash at the casino :line:

Waking up and not feeling rushed. Plenty of time yet to get ready to go out for dinner. :)

encouraging a toddler's silliness

My son's antics. We went for a bite to eat and I spotted some friends so I sat to chat for a few.Well my boy decides to order our drinks for us. As I sat gabbing I glanced over at our table only to see him polishing off his second glass of tea... MINE! He gulped down his and swapped for mine. He saw me looking and almost got strangled trying to drink and laugh. That boy!

Getting a plaintive call from Mr. Osuche, who wants me in SF right now. :)

Thinking about the fun we had at dinner last night. (( know, that's not today, but at a quarter to two in the morning ... it should still count. :))

cleaning the first floor in record time
