Looking Forward To Friday

I've had a wonderful, peaceful day today. My dear husband let me sleep late, so when I woke up, our daughter had already been fed breakfast, and he was vacuuming the living room. He even made me a nice hot pot of coffee. Well, actually, it was half caff, which is not as potent as coffee, but that's ok. I have to have coffee every day.

I watched some TV, ate lunch, did some work on the computer, and then I went out to take care of business. What a beautiful day it was outside. I stopped off at the local convenience store to pick up a few things and to play the lottery. My husband thinks we'll never win, but me, I'm an eternal optimist(with a little wishful thinking tossed in for good measure). They were out of the almond crossiants that my husband and I both adore, but there was a big cheese danish that had my name on it. After careful consideration, however, I decided to pass it up, and I purchased a bag of Sun Chips instead.

I came home, gave our daughter a bottle, and read the paper. There are two garage sales in the area tomorrow(I am a big fan of them), and I can't wait to go to them tomorrow. I've picked up quite a few nice things there.

My husband hung out with his friend, so it was just me and our daughter for a little while. She took a nap, so for almost two hours, I was able to enjoy the peace and quiet, which, for parents, is always a treat.

Now, my husband is making dinner for us, and the air conditioner is humming merrily along. I am grateful for all that I have with my family. Other folks aren't so fortunate :) I'll fill you in tomorrow and let you know what bargains I found at the garage sales.
