Useless info...

Friday night, tired, ready for bed.

Joined a new group, "I'm thankful for...", which makes you think about life and what it has to offer. Me? I'm thankful for my family. My friends. My job. That's what everyone says. How about a different kind of list?

Early mornings with coffee.
The sun on my way into work.
Jackson Five.
When my hair turns out perfectly after I dry it.
A huge laugh, when you crack yourself up.
My nephew doing Napolean Dyanmite.
Hanging out in the school office, before school starts.
Reuniting with old friends.
Saturday mornings.
The crack of the bat, especially when I hit it.
Babies.
A really good book, one that you can't put down.
Hard rain pounding on your roof.
The perfect pair of jeans.
Memories of my brother.
A bit of a sunburn, even though it's not good for you.
Wine.
Cranking the radio, singing, with the window down.
The Gorge, Sasquatch last year.
Hula-hooping with 10 year olds in my classroom.
The most perfect taste of chocolate you ever had - little balls of heaven.
The things that come out of 5th graders' mouths.
Starbucks and their salted hot chocolate.
Freedom.
Many more, don't get me wrong, they're there!

Make everything count. Hug the ones you love.
