At this moment, I am...



happy - with how much accounting-related stuff I got done today. Tax-time is approaching, and it always feels good to kind-of/sort-of/in-a-way be ready for it.

smelling - the lasagne heating up in the oven and the red onion and garlic of the Greek Goddess Salad  I just made (yes, it's really called that).

hearing - the sounds of my kids having their after-school fun - pages turning, paper airplanes going "weeeeee" , marbles rolling across the hard floor, humming, giggling.

waiting - for my hubby to walk through the front door.  Since coming back from Australia, the days feel so long without him around. 

grappling - with the idea of change, and realizing that I am more adaptable than I used to be.  I'm, by no means, ready to become a mechanic in Antarctica, but I feel more capable of handling small changes that happen in everyday life. I think.  Just don't test me on that!

wondering - what God's plan is for us, and when He will make it more clear, or if He will always choose to show us just the next step.

pointing and laughing - at every airplane I see flying above.  "Ha ha, I'm not in you - I'm so done with you for now!"  All those poor, dehydrated, recycled-air-breathing passengers!

pushing - the limit on how many days my family can go without having a laundry day.

contemplating - on starting a "1000 Things I'm Grateful For" list.  How long would that take?  I wonder what would it look like?  After listing "health, kids, husband, warm house, and free country", I'd have to get creative.

excited  - about spring, but am doing my best to embrace the last of the cold winter days.

frustrated -  at the sounds of arguing and antagonizing that I'm hearing now.  How did that happen?!  Wasn't I just writing about happy sounds???
