This isn't what I sat down to write. I have another topic altogether but it's not quite set in my head so I will tuck it away. Instead I am making a list of good things. I am by myself this week as the boys are spending a summer week with their dad so there is LOTS OF TIME for me to think and think and think and that is never a good thing.
1. Lots of Hot Sunshine
2. the first sip of an Iced Cappucino
3. Breakfast with a good friend
4. The windows down and the radio up
5. A rainy breeze blowing in my window
6. The smell of books, old and new
7. Kisses after midnight
8. Long phone calls with an old friend
9. Music all through the house
10. Time to browse in stores
11. Sitting on my deck and staring at the heavens
12. Crisp Veggies and Juicy Fruit (not the gum)
13. Ice cold beer
14. All the concerts I still have this year
15. Gym time
16. Early morning bike rides
17. Running at dusk
18. being missed and being told so
19. Long drives to nowhere in particular
20. Smiling at people and saying hello
"The are of being happy lies in the power of extracting happiness from common things" Henry Ward Beecher
