...I've lost ten pounds in my quest to lose the muffin top.
...I'm basking in the joy of a lovely lunch with my mom at our favorite spot, The Oaks up Ogden Canyon.
...I've read 118 pages of this engaging book.
...I've thought about the fact that I'm getting older, waking up with a start and the dreadful knowledge that it's really much later than I think.
...I've been taken aback by my almost 14-year-old pup, his deafness now so profound that he no longer stirs when we approach him while he's sleeping. A behavior that is the newest symptom in his aging decline and one which is very difficult to bear.
...I made a chocolate chip zucchini cake, the second delicious one of the season.
...we enjoyed an evening with Nicole as she discussed health care reform and her hand-me-down Roomba with equal passion. A delight we will not soon forget.
...we went to a fantastic party in which we met some amazing people, drank the best mojitos we have ever had, and watched the moon rise over the mountain while the lights of the city twinkled brightly below. Thanks Dale and Joy!
...I met Marty, a Paper Crafts fan, at the fantastic party. She recognized me from my column (such a thrill for me!) and we became fast friends.
...I've watched the geese make their sunset flights over the cottonwood tree, their downy underbellies glowing with the golden rays, their wings swishing overhead as they glide west.
What have you been up to as of today?
...rising early to teach my kiddos at school---music at least, so about every 45 minutes, I get a new eager crew
...going to tutoring with my boy
...doing homework with said boy...I hate homework as much as he does---but I just have the good sense not to tell him ;0
...got a comment on my little blog that you HAD, IN FACT, actually been to visit...then I giggled out loud...who knew that Cath---the Cath of PC fame!!! would ever grace my little blog---I must enter contests more often! :) Thanks for actually looking and taking the time to comment! It made my day---
