Believe you can and you’re halfway there.

1. In the low 50s and bright and clear this morning when I woke up. A song sparrow greeted me with his trill before I got out of the bed. It’s been really cool all day – currently 72 deg with a high later expected to be 74 deg.
2. I settled myself with the iPad shortly after breakfast, and found that my on-line church service at First Presbyterian Church didn’t record. So I didn’t get to go to church this morning. A little sad about that.
3. We were able to go early to dinner, so we were avoided any potential Mother’s Day crowds. We went to Royal Thai Bistro – my choice because I wanted something to cut through the pollen-induced snuffles and cough that I woke up with. I had Holy Thai (spice level – 5), with lots of healthy veggies and chicken. Al had Sweet and Sour Chicken.
4. We drove down to Trader Joe’s so I could get blueberries for my cereal tomorrow. I also picked up some of my Sweet Apple Chicken sausages. Everyone in town seemed to be there buying flowers for Mother’s Day (apparently). I thought about getting myself some roses, but then I thought better of it. They’d be dead in three or four days.
5. I finally folded last week’s sheets and towels that have been in the dryer since Tuesday, and took the recycling out to the curb. All chores for today finished – the back porch birds are calling for me.
BONUS: Both boys checked in with Mother’s Day wishes.
How about you? What made you happy today?
