Stuff

Hey! I just realized my 100th post was the one before this! Cool!

Since I go back to work tomorrow, I had to do one more post. I tend to not post at all when I'm working, and on top of that, we are having the pleasure of a sibling visit this week. I won't be around much! I know I should have given you more time, but because of that, I couldn't wait to tell you where I got my previous post title. It's the title of a song by the Barenaked Ladies. (Love 'em!) This has sparked another fun idea. Stay tuned...

Early this AM, hub and I got up to try to see the space shuttle launch. It doesn't often go up at night, and I'm told when it does that it's quite the spectacle. It lights up the whole night sky. Wouldn't you know in our woozy state we totally missed it! ARGH. Someday. At least we've seen it during the day and heard the sonic boom (and quite a boom it is!) of its return twice.

I've also finished Secret Thoughts of an Adoptive Mother. I'll be posting my reaction sometime soon.

To get me going for the rest of the week, how about a list of Happy Things? (Feel free to leave some of your happy things in the comments)

1. My wedding ring
2. The song of the meadowlark
3. Arnold's Natural Health Nut Bread
4. Buy One Get One sales at the grocery store
5. Kingdom Hearts II
6. Naruto
7. blog love
8. my nephew's voice
9. hugs

By the way, this list is as much of "what I'm into right now" as it is a happy things list. ;)
(Note: I'm posting a poll on the sidebar. Please contribute if you can!)

Hey Barb,

Happy 100th post.

I think our blogs are total opposites today! It's nice to see that you're doing so well.

I was going to stay up and watch the shuttle too, but I decided sleep was more important. Sorry you missed it. I'll get over to the coast for a launch soon!

I like the Barenaked Ladies Christmas cd also.

Happy thoughts: M&Ms, my "puppies", snuggling in my warm bed on a rainy day.

Happy Anniversary!

Cool Farah. :) I like that song too, but not as much as the others. That would have been awesome! Why didn't you say something earlier? ;-) We got it cheap though. No worries.

Stephanie - I commented on your blog. Apparently the shuttle was only visible for a matter of seconds due to the cloudiness. So that's why we didn't see it. Good thing you stayed in bed!!

Kathy - Love BNL Xmas! I looooooove the old song they did with Sarah Maclachlan. One of my favorites.
Yuuuuuuuum M&M's. Peanut for me. Always the puppies and the snuggling too. :)

seussgirl - niiice thoughts. Here, it's the first day of winter. ;-)
