Today's Five:
1. Darin and I celebrated our 17 year anniversary together at the beautiful Hines Mansion in Provo. So fun!
2. Got a soda from the cranky pop machine at work today. (a) the soda came out. (b) it was the right soda. Miracles!
3. The boys have new glasses, which they needed. Thanks Darin for taking care of that!
4. Prayer. Sometimes that's all I can do on a Monday morning. So far it's helped me make it to Monday afternoon.
5. French fried onions on my salad. Good stuff.
What are you all grateful for today?

Guess What? I'm 14 Again!
I know that because I woke up this morning with a huge zit on my nose.
I didn't even like being 14 the first time around...
Oh well, on to today's 5:
1. I know how to cover said zit with makeup now.
2. Just learned I'm not supposed to be watching videos on work computers. Looks like I'll get to read those books I've been wanting to read.
3. Just joined a book club.
4. Wednesday-sisters-lunch-day.
5. Pistachios (it seems I usually include a food in my thankful-fors. Hmmmm).

The Feline with the Foot Fetish
I don't like animals. Sure, I used to volunteer at the veterinary clinic with my best friend in junior high, but that was more her passion - I just wanted to play with someone. And yes, I begged my mom and dad for our first cat (Cally), but after she met her death (courtesy of the dog across the street), I lost my desire for pets.
So let me introduce you to my pet cat, Jayke (p.s. - I had to ask my husband how to even spell his name).
He's been a part of our family, along with his sister Laya, for about 3 years now. He's big (but not overweight, according to the vet), and hairy, sheds, is a nervous eater, and gets jealous of his sister-cat's friends, but mostly he likes feet. Bare, human feet.
I know, gross.
Whenever you let him in the back door, he licks your toes. If you are brushing your teeth in the bathroom, he'll lay down on your foot. He'll lick your feet even with socks on. He. Loves. Feet.
And we love him. (Okay, some of us just put up with him.)
Anyway, I am SO not like the lady in this video.
Today's Five:
1. The aforementioned video
2. Dinner with these guys tonight. I just love my cohort!
