- waking up and it really is FRIDAY
- checking your balance in your checking out to find out that both federal & state income tax returns were both automatically deposited! Of course it will soon be transfered out of my checking to pay bills, some into savings, some to the kitchen remodel - but for a minute I had a comma in my daily balance!!
- drinking coffee out of your new starbucks mug scored on the clearance rack with a gift card from a sweet friend ;)
- starbucks
- chai tea soy lattes shared with friends that need to say a lot of words
- Co-workers that rallied this morning to pull together a $200 collection to send food to another co-worker's home who just brought her husband home so he can spend his last hours in the comfort of his own home surrounded by friends and family. He has been fighting cancer bravely for 6 years. He is in his 30's and they have one 6 year old son. And having said food arrive at noon just when they began to think about - what are we going to do for lunch?
- that song from the diet coke commercial : starry eyed surprise
- reading the comments from my post below. thank you my friends - your words and thoughts and prayers mean more than I can say.
- Having your Dad call just because he wanted to hear your voice
- trouser jeans
- feeling like maybe I want to scrapbook something this weekend
- thankful for the pictures I have of my family "before"...
- having a sweet sleepy baby boy reach for you when you pick him up out of his crib this morning. And maybe he was just trying to get out because his big brother had filled his crib with lots of "dogs" aka stuffed animals. but still I will take little hands reaching for me anytime.
- great movies: "My own personal tragedy will not interfere with my ability to do good hair". Does anyone know where that quote came from?
- Jack Johnson
- Grey's. I didn't watch it last night - so tonight after the boys in bed - I have plans to watch with a little bowl of ice cream while I fast forward thru the commercials
- Sweet friends who send emails just to see how I am doing and share news of their baby boys who are close in age to mine
- A new recipe to try this weekend: brownies made with ripe bananas - from the blog of Stacey Julian

Hi Rachel, The quote comes from Steel Magnolias, I think.
Have a good weekend, that is until it starts raining and gets cold.
