More completely gorgeous weather. What a fabulous thing to be so thrilled by it every single day.
The luxury of being able to walk to the coffee shop for a meeting.
Super fun meeting with Andy during which we talked shop – and then, you know, life, the universe, and everything. 🙂
A reasonably tidy office — especially since a few hours ago it looked like the love child of a paper supply company and a garage sale… 😛
Being able to go for walks again. REAL walks – like all the way down to the Rose Gardens and back. Thank you, pacemaker, for helping my heart do its thing the right way!
The lacy not-yet-budding branches against the fading early spring light.
The adventure of taking photos with my phone, but not really being able to see what I’ve got in the frame (since I’m facing the sun), so having to wait until I get home to see what I got. 🙂 I love that these trees look like they are holding hands.
The feeling of being impelled down the hill so quickly I almost have to jog to keep from falling. Being able to walk back UP the hill. Did I mention how much I like my heart and lungs and muscles all doing what I need? So good.
The goofy unlikeliness of looking down at just the right moment during my walk to spot Katie’s Earth First button and pick it up – not even knowing it was hers or that she’d lost it. Silly.
Silliness.
This mind-bogglingly beautiful weather. What an amazing joy it is to go for a walk with no need for a jacket!
Gremlin faces gazing out at me from trees.
All the sounds of a walk through my little neighborhood: my own footsteps; wind blowing through the trees, jangling wind chimes, jingling my earrings; airplanes and cars; melted snow rushing downhill to the storm sewer; birds singing; kids voices:
“I like to ride down the hill”
“I have my own bike”
“I want to go down a hill. Daddy, I saw a girl!”
“I know, you were having a conversation with her!”
So much deliciousness all around. ❤
Small hilarious events, like having three birds fly directly at me as I walked down the sidewalk. Exhilarating!
The most delicious, nourishing, hilarious, wonderful porch visit with Pam. How I love our wonderful talks that range all over the place and leave me feeling inspired and happy and loved and excited to be alive. I am so grateful for our friendship!
Curling up with kittens to settle down for the night.
Gluten-free pancakes with cinnamon and pecans. Plus coffee! Delicious!
Sunny sunny sunny and 60º. Hells, yeah!
Having practiced changing my thoughts enough that I can usually catch an anxious/crabby/out-of-sorts day at the start and find a happier thoughts before the grumpies take hold. Yay!
Timing and plans and things all working out in the best possible way.
Lunakitty’s interesting new vocabulary. Funny new sounds!
Alison’s sweet tolerance of a duo partner who sleeps through her alarm and arrives late for warm-ups… 😛
Spending time with Sarah and Miss Ida. It had been WAY too long!
Weather warm enough for my first walk to the lake… with NO hat….and NO mittens. Even had to take my jacket off on the way home. Woohoo!
Warm and fuzzy socks Debb sent me. Is it wrong that my first instinct is to get the sharpies back out and color these, too?? 😉
The beautiful tree pattern my crystal made as the light came through the window.
The amazingly beautiful weather today — AND in the forecast.
Super fun rehearsal with Alison this morning for our debut duo show tomorrow. Hooray!
The utter joy of hanging out with the Delaney girls this afternoon. What an amazing treat. How smart that we already put a date for next week on the calendar! 🙂
Free range sleeping.
The hilarious surprise when I pressed command+ yesterday (to enlarge the font in a Preview doc) and activated the text to voice feature on my mac (it was the pipe organ sound, so I heard my calendar updates as a song. LOL.)! I don’t remember changing that setting — but what a fun break from doing web updates. 😉
Surprisingly amusing errands with the kids last night. All the cashiers (and even people in line with us) were so animated and cheerful and talkative. Fun!
Sunshine and an extended forecast with no highs below 34º – and one predicted high of 56!!! Yeah, baby.
My new morning coloring meditation. What an excellent way to begin the day.
Mid-morning peacefulness: softly snoring kittens, tick-tocking clocks, sunshine streaming, birds chirping. Nice.
Ice cubes with handles. 
Water.
Squishy sunshine.
Early bedtime.
