Memorial day.  Grateful to the people who serve who make this country worth living in from time to time. 

 

 

very trival but because I got the day off- i got to see my boyfriend an extra day- and I've been needing that time so that was a bonus.

[girljen]

1.  My twin bro moved back to my part of town today!!

 

2.  My microwave rage quit on me last night, I complained about it on facebook, and then a former coworker of mine offered to sell me her microwave for $20. Okay, sure!  So, I got an awesome, gently used microwave for WAY less than it would have been new.

 

3.  Yesterday, my lovely daughter graduated kindergarten.  It was cute and silly and all the things a kindergarten graduation should be.  The real surprise came when I got Liz's folder full of work from throughout the school year.  One of the projects was a "Superhero Cape," a paper cape with her name in the middle and all kinds of nice things written around it in the teacher's handwriting.  Turns out, the compliments came from classmates.  The teacher had each kid take a turn in front of the class, and asked the other kids to describe her.  Here's what they said:

Gets along with everyone

Happy

Nice

Super smart

Pretty

Thoughtful

Beautiful

She doesn't judge anyone

 

Thoughtful?  Non-judgmental? Nice?

YES!!  These are the values that we've been trying to instill in her!      Compassion and empathy FTW!!  (of course, the rest of the stuff is great, too, but this world needs kind and compassionate people more than anything)

[I-Jo]

[girljen]

1.  My twin bro watched my daughter for a couple hours so I had time for a particularly vigorous workout and a long, uninterrupted shower.  I needed that little bit of quiet.

 

2.  My daughter's dad.  Along with delicious beer, I am going to get him a thank you card for Fathers Day.  I dropped her off at his house today and we had a good talk about what the summer's going to look like for her.

 

3.  The little one herself.  She's sweet, thoughtful, and she's been on an exponential hilarity curve lately.

[Rhyme]

1. My brother got his first big job at a company! Also it's a desk job, so maybe I can convince him to join NF...

2) Being able to grow plants and not kill them, now. Except strawberries. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

3) My family, and fiance.

Three things I am thankful for this morning, although they certainly don't make me "happy":

 

1. That I had 16 wonderful years with my dog, and so many memories since coming home from camp and being greeted by a fluffy white dog I had never seen before; 16 years mostly unmarred by sickness or by tragedy. "Do not grieve that he is no more; be thankful that he was". I am so thankful for him.

 

2. That I had the chance to say goodbye. I can't be there when our family says our final goodbyes, but I was able to go over to my parents' this morning and spend some time with him, give him all the hugs and kisses and treats that I could, and my last memory of him is his tail wagging and his tongue hanging out in a doggy smile.

 

3. That I have friends and family who understand, who are there to support me, even though my immediate family is all going to be away. That I have a support network both on- and off-line who are there to comfort me, to be a shoulder to cry on, and to provide silence or distraction when I need one or the other.

[girljen]

Tseecka, I am so sorry for your loss. 

 

1.  In light of that, I am thankful for my Missy Dog, my Nushi Kitty, and my 21-year-old Billie Kitty.  Yep.  She's legit old enough to drink.  All three of them were snuggled up with me last night, and it was just what I needed.

 

2.  My best friend, Sue.  Yesterday was her birthday.

 

3.  My friend Steve, who died one year ago yesterday.  He changed my life, and steered me into the company of people who treat me well (like said best friend).  Until I met him, I'd spent my life trying to impress and trying to win favor, often at my own expense.

[Bekah]
