And that's all I'm gonna say.
Except here's my five:
1. At least I don't have BO.
2. Plus there's ice cream in the freezer.
3. And fudge sauce in the fridge.
4. And I'm gonna have some.
5. But just a little bit.

"I've got two speeds, and the other one is slower."
I over heard an older sister missionary say that this morning and it made me smile. She always gets off the bus with a cane and a grin. It made my day.
I haven't done my five thankful fors lately. So here goes:
1. Good health. Thankfully I have a faster speed, otherwise I would miss all my busses.
2. Mother's Day. I know I'm a bit late on this, but my mom and mother-in-law are great. I love them so much. And my kids made the cutest cards for me. One was a tank shooting hearts, another said she was glad to be my "douter" and another wrote: "roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet and so are u." And my husband took me to dinner and made me the prettiest bracelet. Thanks everyone!
3. Work is slowing down. My desk at this current moment is clean! And yesterday I hardly had any students call to ask why they weren't admitted when they turned in their application the day before. (FYI: when you or your children apply for college, it takes more than one day to admit them. Even if we hurry. And if you keep calling and keep calling, it takes even longer.)
4. String cheese. It's such a good snack.
5. The video "Pop Goes My Heart" from the movie Music and Lyrics. This is made-up 80's at it's finest!

I Love Gardening, Part II
Apparently many of you don't like gardening, either, because I got very few comments. But no matter, I STILL love gardening, I love gardening, I love gardening...
For Mother's Day my in-laws gave me a CD with beautiful music. One of the songs talked about gardens, and I've been thinking a lot about it lately, since my mantra is - you got it - "I love gardening..."
It talked about how Adam and Eve started in a garden, how Christ atoned for our sins in a garden, and how He rose three days later in a garden. Isn't that neat? And then my kids started talking about how all the temples have pretty gardens, and how the prophet commanded us to have a garden.
Soooo, I love gardening, I love gardening, I love gardening...
