thankful

Today I am thankful for:

3 day weekends

an empty laundry basket

flowers on my dining room table

TJ's blueberry soda

being able to run even though I mostly hate it

a girl who woke up on the wrong side of the bed

 with messy pig tails

and mismatched jammies

a disappearing pimple (finally!)

upcoming plans

being me

sheets fresh from the dryer

cartoons that keep a girl busy for 30 minutes

meeting friends for lunch

playing memory

learning new things

new jeans that fit just right

and 4 new tops to go with them

all on sale!

a husband who understands

a mama's need to be left alone

if even for an hour

pandora radio

chicory coffee

with peanut butter toast

and blog reading

big decisions being made

and settling into what isn't so bad after all

today I am thankful for it all

cause it's all good

even the yucky everyday hassles

that tend to bog me down

cause this is it

there is no do-over

no turning back

no rewind button

today I am thankful for remembering that
