Rainy day blues

I hate these cold, dreary, rainy kind of days. The cold seems to get into my very core and I stay cold all day. Having a misty rain doesn't seem to help either. What makes it worse is that all I want to do is take a nap. It would be a great day for a nap but I have to go across town for my Wednesday class. On the bright side: I will be home by 6:30, dinner is in the crock pot and LOST is on tonight! Yippee! I suddenly feel all cheery and hopeful! Here is my list of 10 things that make me happy today (bear with me; trying to shake these rainy day blues)
1. LOST is on tonight. Best damn TV show on the air.
2. I got out of work at 12:45. Always a good day when I get out early!!! (I start at 6:15 AM)
3. I missed "company" at work. I dread when outsiders come in for the sole purpose of critiquing my classroom. I'd rather not be there.
4. I have 4 new volunteers on my FTG team at church!!! They are all so outgoing and crazy- love it!
5. Dinner is cooking in the crock pot. A no fuss meal!
6. I am not too crazy behind in homework, only a little. But this could change drastically if I don't do some by Thursday night!
7. I feel so blessed to have a warm house, a job, and medical insurance!
8. My front porch pansies are so beautiful and colorful! They brightened my day when I came home today.
9. I finally got my hairdresser to cut my hair in a simple bob. No more crazy layers that had a mind of their own.
10. IT IS HUMP DAY!!!! Only 2 more days to the weekend!!
I feel a bit better. Always look on the bright side of life. But uh-oh, I hear the "s" word on the weather: snow? Hush..... I 'll cross that bridge when and if it arrives.
HAVE A GREAT DAY!!

WOW, It's been almost a year since I've had a thought to share

I can't believe it has been almost a year since I have had a thought to share. A lot has happened. I've been places, met people, experienced highs and lows, and through it all, I am still me.
Lets get caught up: still trudging through school at CPCC, passed Algebra (thanks Weezer), took on a Cadet Girl Scout Troop, joined a new church and jumped in as a volunteer and team leader before they knew a Clouser was in the house, FINALLY got a new car (may the Buick rest in peace), and still trying to lose weight!!! Being a classic procrastinator, I have decided I can make time to blog and balance all my plates. Let's see if I can pull it off.......
