Quickie Update!

Ok, so I am trying like a fiend to get in bed within the next 3 minutes, I am going to make this super short and sweet!

It is a rainy night here in Oregon, and I LOVE listening to the rain pelt the windows. When I got home today, I took a moment to sit in the car and just listened to the rain hitting the metal roof of my car, it was soooooo relaxing! Well, as I was sitting there there just soaking up the peace and quiet, when all of the sudden I looked at the mini blue flowers that grow in front of my condo, and what did I see? A tiny humming bird!!! IN THE RAIN!!! It was sooooo AWESOME!! I caught myself holding my breath just hoping it wouldn’t notice that it was being spied upon, and hang around so I could just watch it for a little while, which it did!! I realized in that moment, that it really is the small things in life that makes life worth living!! 😉 This week at work has been super hectic – everyone seems to be in a panic mode of something or other! Whew!!! So, I really needed that little rendezvous with that little humming bird!

Today I was basically living off of a major to-do list today, and although I had every intention of getting EVERY SINGLE item done, it didn’t happen!!! It’s all good though!!!

Here is what I did get done:

  1. Flossed
  2. Got to work on time
  3. Grocery shopped – buying nothing unhealthy!!! YEAH!!!
  4. Made dinner at home
  5. Dinner
  6. One load of laundry
  7. Practiced my piano lesson
  8. Gave the dog her medicine
  9. Cleaned the laundry room
  10. Bagged up the garbage

I have soooo much more to get done, but it will have to wait until tomorrow!!!

Tomorrow, I will have to spend a good portion of the evening at the laundromat washing my feather comforter and another large blanket off of my bed! I am determined to go to bed in a crisp, freshly made bed tomorrow night – starting the weekend off right! Not my favorite Friday night plans, but I am going to make sure I take a FABULOUS book, and a travel mug of rich hot cocoa!!! PERFECT!!!

Ok, so I missed my bed time deadline! That is alright, I will try it again tomorrow! I have got to start making my rest a priority!!! My new late night habits are evening starting to stress my puppies out! Poor things!! LOL!! 😉

Have a FABULOUS evening!

    OMG!!! Hummingbirds are my absolute favorite bird of all time! And when I happen upon one, I do the same thing you did…hold my breath hoping to watch it for awhile before it sees me. LOL! They are absolutely beautiful and definitely one of those “smell the roses” moment.
    Earlier I took Victoria to bed and was coochie-ing her. While she was reading her book, I was listening to the rain outside (I have left my window wide open the past few nights.) and my daughter put on my Goddess music cd… next thing I know I am OUT! But of course, she is still awake and wakes me up several different times.
    I find it interesting that the it has been literally “dumping” rain and I have been way too emotional….yep…to include tears.

    I am very proud of you for buying all healthy stuff and I think you did a lot today… HOLD YOUR HEAD UP HIGH Girlfriend!!!

      Sis, I have to tell you, you are SUCH A FABULOUS CHEERLEADER!!!! What would I ever do without you!!!

      I know, my hummingbird moment today was just magical! I know it must’ve been divine intervention because I was just frazzled, and all of the sudden, I had no choice but to “smell the roses”! LOL!!

      I am getting ready to go to bed now, I got myself stuck watching Iron Chef America – they are grilling – YUM!!!

      Tomorrow, I am wanting to record my day in pictures starting with getting up out of bed, and ending with blogging – that should be fun!!

      Anyway, I love you, Sissy!! You really are such a blessing to me – I hope to be able to return the favor!!!
      Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!
      Love,
      me! 🙂
