Good News Minute

I GOT ACCEPTED TO GRADUATE SCHOOL!

Thanks for letting me brag.

My Five:

1. A very supportive husband. I couldn't do without him!

2. Vitamin D, B12 and Ribose. I'm finally starting to feel happy and energetic again.

3. Spring. I just know it's coming! I could ALMOST smell it this morning!

4. My sisters, because we get to have a movie afternoon tomorrow (has anyone seen New in Town?).

5. My sisters, because they made my day when I called them and they were "busy" watching Britney Spears music videos. They really are over 12 years old, really. (But they don't look it! Just ask the cop who pulled my sister over and told her to drive safe for the kids and looked at my other two sisters....)

Coincidence?

Generally, I don't believe in coincidences. Most things happen for a reason. Yesterday, however, almost changed my mind.

Right before I left work to go home for the day, I decided to hurry and grab "just one more" conversation heart. You know those sugary little candies that say cute things like "Marry me" or "Text me." My co-worker has a bunch at her desk to share. I ran to grab one before I left, reaching for a white one because everybody knows that the white ones are the best. Before I popped it into my mouth, I read it.










It said "MISTAKE."









I ate it anyway.


My Friday the 13th Five:

1. My new favorite song: Be Okay by Ingrid Michaelson. I just love her anyway.

2. People doing their best at their callings. Last night the Blue and Gold Banquet was very fun. I thought the leaders did a great job and the boys for sure LOVED it!

3. Treats at work.

4. Sweaters. Especially cuz the heater in my building doesn't work. Neither does the air conditioning for that matter.

5. PMS week is over. Boy am I glad. I'm sure Darin will be, too.

Best Day EVER!

In our Stake's Women's Conference, our keynote speaker (Sister Menlove) encouraged us to wake up every morning and say "Best Day Ever!"

I woke up 2 1/2 hours ago and am finally remembering. BEST DAY EVER!

My Thankful Fors:

1. Getting to work early. I can catch up on my blogging and facebook.

2. Being an indoor worker. I could never do construction in the winter. Brrrr!

3. My husband is substitute teaching in my daughter's class. I'm so jealous! She's so excited!

4. 2 nights in a row of completed homework. You don't know how monumental that is.

5. Blue and Gold Banquet tonight. I have no idea what that is, but my boys promise a great night with just parents and scouts. (Thanks Ange for watching my girl! She's so excited!)
