Happy Little Things
Posted: February 1, 2010 Filed under: Uncategorized 27 Comments »
I had the happiest day.
No particular reason, just a lot of little happy things: A mom brought me a huge latte this morning. I had a yummy lunch of chicken and zucchini. I loved my outfit. We played a fun game during writing (I like it when the kids like learning). It is NO LONGER pitch black when I leave work at 6:30. LOST comes back tomorrow. I just ate a perfect bowl of vanilla ice cream.
In other news, I forgot my camera at home today. The only meal I really sat down to was dinner, which I didn’t cook. Meeker suggested that I make life easy for myself and cash-in one of our holiday gift cards and pick up some Chili’s. I had a fantastic chicken quesadilla. It has been over a month since we’ve eaten a single meal that was not made in our own kitchen. Nothing like a free meal without dishes.
What was one happy little thing about your Monday?
My happiest thing about my Monday was my workout. I got home after 10pm and was seriously in tears thinking about it and I’m shocked and awed I actually went through with it.
30days of ALL home-cooked meals is pretty darn impressive, you more than desserved a ‘night out!’
I hope Tuesday is just as awesome!

The best part of my Monday was seeing the sunrise at the beach– and then having it rain all day.. I didn’t mind the rain since I’d already seen the sun!
I’ve only been to Chili’s once–and I loved it! That quesadilla looks perfectooo
I love hearing that anyone loved how they felt on any given day! That is pretty cool
One happy part of my day today was learning that i get to see my dad in a couple weeks / all my friends back home!! P.S. That quesadilla looks like the one i am apparently going to make tomorrow thanks to your pic! Hope you enjoy tomorrow just as much!
What an awesome post!
I read so many debbie downer posts every day and this one….a breath of fresh air….love it!!!!
I also love longer days and more daylight.

It’s so nice when you feel so inexplicably content. Sounds like your students have some awesome moms!
Good for you, for not eating out for a month! We are pretty much the same way….live in a small town, on a tight budget, so when we do go out it is savored!!! I love a good quesdilla:)

I hope that latte was from Kristen…b/c I teased her relentlessly that I was your new favorite ha!! Suck up! I love that girl!! I was happy to have sunshine on my back and not living my life in the rear view mirror! I now know what next fall will bring and that makes me happy.
