5 Happy Things About My Day Today

A virtual parlor game has been going around Facebook called "25 Random Things About Me." At first I thought I'd never be able to come up with 25 things to say about myself, but then I got into a rhythm and it ended up being so much fun I didn't want to stop at 25! And it's been a blast reading other people's lists. I've learned things I didn't know about each person who has "tagged" me with their list. Building on that concept, here are 5 Happy Things About My Day Today:

1. I went shopping for a new pair of jeans, since I've lost some weight and my old ones are starting to hang off me, and I fit into a size 10! My old ones are 14s.

2. The bottom of our driveway froze over into a great little ice rink, so I pretended I had ice skates and glided around singing "Skater's Waltz."

3. My husband and I both have Fridays off. And he got paid today, so we went shopping for some essentials. What does it say about us that we're so excited to have a new trash can in the kitchen? A 13-gallon one instead of the puny little thing we've been suffering with for 15 months. One with a lid. One that the trash will stay inside of, instead of dropping out all over the floor between the refrigerator and the hutch. It's great. We love it.

4. In a few minutes I'll be making Dianne-friendly candy called "Haystacks" with Kashi puffed cereal, coconut, crushed pecans, and Ghirardelli chocolate.

5. Battlestar Galactica is on tonight. And we have the first disc of Season 3, which we realized we missed last year, on DVD from Netflix so we can spend the whole evening immersed in BSG!
