Happy Days

Life is good.

1. My baby is 9 months old today, which seems ridiculous, but is a fact I must face. The happy part of that is that she is so smiley, and when she smiles it's like she's modeling her 6 little teeth for the world to see. Little wrinkled up nose and squinty eyes - how cute can she get?!?

2&3. I've got superpills now that have made life much nicer than 6 weeks ago, and I've got superhusband who is coming home early to watch the girls and make supper for me while I work. How great is that?!?

4. I took the poodle, the gumball machine, and Galadriel out trick-or-treating last night, so I'm stocked with candy. That makes for a happy momma!

5&6. With Halloween over I'm looking square in the face of The Holidays and, for once, I'm prepared (even bought a couple gifts already!) and ready for the excitement. I'm thinking we'll have to hang the tree from the ceiling to keep Carmen from pulling it down repeatedly, but other than that I'm feeling pretty optimistic. And what great timing, this whole "green" movement, and recycling, saving the planet, etc . . . I have no money anyway, so when I give my niece my old jewelry box it's a recycled heirloom, not just cheap Auntie Jenn offloading household items on unsuspecting relatives! ;)

7. Tonight's the time change, so I get a extra hour of sleep! Yet another reason that life is good. That's assuming that I get to bed on time, though, so I'd better go finish my cleaning. That's a bit of a bummer . . . I'll just have to pop in the Carpenters CD while I clean . . . that makes everything better . . .


Cheers!
