My happy list

My new purse is making me happy. I love the colors and the dangly bead thingy that hangs off one of the handles and that I can easily reach in to grab my phone when it rings. I also like that while it is open on top, it has a zippered pocket inside in which I can store my wallet.

I love yourmusic.com. LOVE that I can stock up on CDs that I always thought would be cool to own but never wanted to pay $18.00 for. My latest shipment? The Cars: Complete Greatest Hits. I LOVE The Cars. "Drive" always reminds me of my first love. "Who's gonna drive you home...." Ahhhh. Great stuff.

Feeling better after two days on the couch was great yesterday... I still find myself tiring quickly, but was able to get laundry done and the kitchen mopped and some groceries bought. I can only handle letting my house go for a couple of days and then something has to be done.

The weather has been spectacular... cool nights and warm days and not a cloud in sight. The trees are just beginning to turn - I see hints of red and yellow all over town. Mmmm - I love fall.

Had a great sermon on Sunday about friendship... been thinking a lot about mine and what it is that makes some friendships endure and others fade. I'm especially grateful for my old friends... those who have been by my side for decades. You can't beat that. Brooke, Corey, Kelly - love you guys.

Clean sheets are so lovely.

So is a clean bathtub.

Isn't Downey great? Love that smell.

Lots to do today.

More cleaning.

More laundry.

PTG meeting.

Grocery shopping.

Walk the dog.

Scrapbook.

Life is good.

It came out of the faucet that way.

It's been months since I've had a "Getting to Know You Wednesday." Life's been a little crazy. So today, when life is a little bit calm and I've got the least chaotic week I've had for ages, I thought I'd jump back in. So today, if you leave me a comment telling me your most favorite-ist movie line ever, I'll enter you in a drawing for your very own copy of Josh Groban's new Christmas CD - Noel . It's a good one, folks. Classic holiday music from such a wonderful vocalist... you'll like it, I promise. I just want one movie line. Not your three favorite... not a paragraph. Just one line. The one you find yourself repeating. The one that makes you laugh every time. Your very favorite movie line of all time. And if you're the first person to name the movie my title is from, you'll get an extra entry in the drawing. Now, let's hear it.

30,000? For real?

So, if you scroll down to the bottom of this here blog, you'll see that I'm probably just a day or two from reaching 30,000 hits. That's just freaky. And in just under 2 years. (I didn't add the counter until after I'd been blogging for several months...) So in honor of almost reaching that milestone, this weeks 'getting to know you Wednesday' question is this: What would you do if you won $30,000? I like this question, because it's not an overwhelming number, and therefore not brain-freeze inducing. It's big enough to be able to accomplish some nice little projects around the house, but not so large that you have to worry about your third cousins from the Ozarks showing up on your doorstep looking for cash so they can put veneers on their teeth. Answer my question this week and you'll be entered in a drawing for 30 special little trinkets in a lovely little goody box. (And when I say trinkets, I mean trinkets. We're talking 30 little lovelie

Are you ready for this?

How did it get to be Wednesday? Seriously. There aren't enough hours in the day - even when you're up at 2:00 am. And no - I didn't get up at 2:00 this morning. I slept all the way until 5:00! Anywho - I decided I needed something new to blog. Something to shake you all out of your 'thoughts from the deep recesses' stupor. Something to get your blood pumping and your fingers tingling. Something to inspire long and meaningful comments. From you. My beloved readers. It's a new weekly Thoughts From the Deep Recesses feature. It's "Getting to Know you Wednesday" Now this could either be lots of fun, or it could just totally flop, and I could go to bed crying because my blog readers are a bunch of takers who only come here to read and never interact. Like a piece of fresh fruit, you squeeze the juice out of my hard-written and well thought out posts and then you toss them aside, wandering on to the next blog with a simple click of your mouse.
