The Good

From an idea via my new favorite read, You Can't Afford the Luxury of a Negative Thought, I am going to try and write The Good from each day. Today starts with this:

*"You're such a smarty tarty." texted from a girlfriend who was in my college algebra class last year, congratulating me on my semester

*Yesterday evening coming home to a beautifully decorated home with flowers on the table that my sister had neatly put back together after staying for an hour and helping me pack after I left the house.

*My husband texting me "Loving the emails! Keep 'em coming," after received my email rants of confusion over my uncertain feelings about this move.

*Coming across the artwork my children have made over the past year, being scared they won't make it anymore when we move back to the apartment, then coming across a post talking about the beautiful notes Justinb wrote me while at the apartment, and coming across beautiful artwork they did while at the apartments while I'm packing

*My dog covered in burrs and having to stay outside until I decide to brush her (not sure if that's necessarily good, but it's funny)

*Hawaiian coffee Brando and I brought back from our trip of which has been sitting for two hours because I'm too preoccupied to drink it but still tastes delicious with every sip I do take

*A whole summer of fun with my boys - I can't WAIT to take them to Hamilton Pool, go to Six Flags, go to Laguna Gloria, and hopefully set them up for a few camps

*KT, once again offering to help and even insisting, even though she's sick out of her mind right now, and who tells me I'm amazing when I tell her to get better because I don't want her to get sicker by helping me!! What did I do to get blessed with such a wonderful, amazing friend? Not to mention such a wonderful, amazing husband and boys!

Wow. It's only 12:40pm and I already have so many to write down for the day. Can't wait to come back and write more. I really hope I remember to do this every day - what a fabulous habit I've been meaning to do for years, but apparently I'm the type who has to read it in a book before I actually do it!

Added later:

*Dinner at P. T*rry's with the family as a result of me telling Brando I had been packing all day and needed some sort of normal.
