Small things

By , September 11, 2018 6:21 am

A few small things making me happy today:

  • That my work day isn’t full of meetings, and the ones I do have are internal
  • Most of my clothes are clean and put away (caught up on laundry!)
  • It’s cool enough to drink hot tea again

  • Burning the pumpkin cupcake candle (ha, I burn it for about two hours, let it cool, cut the wicks, then burn it again!)

  • Kitten/cat shenanigans – I love that they play together. How much longer until I catch Khali snuggling with one of the kittens?!

  • That Apollo wants to be a lap cat

  • The love and support about Data. People have been so thoughtful that I feel guilty and undeserving of the kindness at times. But then I tell my brain to shut up.
  • That I have a magnet order on the way
  • That I rearranged the dining room this weekend to make it feel more open
  • That we’re one day closer to the weekend. Ha!

What’s on your list?

    Things that are making me happy today:
    – Waking up to snuggles from my toddler, while baby #2 kicks away in my tummy.
    – Having a good daycare drop-off with William this morning.
    – Crisp mornings, and wearing a cardigan to work again.
    – Seeing my snister using the mug I had made for her! <3
    – Free fruit & pastries at a vendor meeting this morning.
    – Bringing leftovers for lunch so I don't have to buy anything!

    Its been cooler here too yayyyyyy! not by much but its noticeable at night and in the mornings.

    I hope you catch her snuggling with both of them. It took Boomer so long to cuddle with his old bff (that he knew since a puppy) and even then it was just a head on her back or laying side by side 🙁

    I want to see pictures of the new room layout!

    On my list: My leg is healing and I might try running on it later this week!

      It sounds more exciting than it is! The room is very narrow, and we had the coffee cart, a “snack” table, and Data’s feeding area on one wall, so I removed the last two things so there is more room around the table. I will attach a pic though.

      YAY!!!!!!!

  4. Apollo is such a ham! What an expression! Also, is that a new watch I see on your wrist?

    If you’d like to drink hot tea year round, you should definitely start working in an office more office instead of from home. I’ve been drinking hot tea (and wearing a fleece!) all summer to stay warm in my office, haha. I suppose it’s kind of my own fault, because I insist on dressing so that I’ll be comfortable outside rather than being comfortable inside (which would require pants and long sleeves year round), but it does seem kind of ridiculous.

      Isn’t he though?! Yes! Steven and his dad got me the Garmin FR 935 for my birthday in July 🙂

      Ha! Good point! They keep in so cool in the office! And we actually do at home, too. Just feels weird to drink that hot stuff too often in the summer! And I am with you – I dress for my commute to the office when I go downtown!

    Warm weather does not stop me from steeping. Oh no.

    Jealous of your cooler weather. It was 103 here yesterday. Wahhhh.

    Things making me happy today:
    -It was raining this morning, so I got to sleep in for an extra hour instead of going for my morning walk
    -I have dinner plans tonight with dear girlfriends at a very yummy restaurant
    -Hot coffee 🙂

    • kilax says:

      Ick! I hope you don’t have many more triple digit day this year 🙁

      Ooo, and waking up hearing the rain is so nice! Have fun at dinner tonight!!! Will there be guac?!

    I’m SO glad it’s cool enough to drink hot tea again. That’s one of my greatest joys in life, and I’m sad that you’ve been missing out in the hot weather.

    That picture of Apollo cracks me up. He’s winking…or looking vaguely skeptical.
