The epitome of a good day:
- Woke up from a good night’s rest with no arthritis pain
- Ate previous night’s leftovers for breakfast – no brainer Paleo meal
- I was the first customer at Grease Monkey for an oil change, had coffee with the guys & they gave me a new customer discount
- Pool store clerk loaded 3 jugs of chlorine in the car for me without me asking for help
- Home Depot associate gave me a 2 x 3′ piece of plywood for free when I told him I was making a counter-top ironing board for my quilting projects
- Washed my car in the driveway – it was overcast & almost cool. No heat exhaustion. No streaks.
- Rode my new bike to the library without accidents or incidents (just a sore ass)
- Bought 2 beautiful, ripe mangos – my favorite fruit
- Pulled weeds around the lanai without seeing worms, snakes or anything else startling or disgusting
- Dove down to pull a rogue plastic lid covering the drain at the bottom of the pool and didn’t drown
- Received calls from my kids
- Finished my retro step stool project
Before
After
- Amazon delivered my new bicycle basket and I installed it in 3 minutes
- Found enough fabric in my stash to make skirts for the work tables in my quilt studio so I can save my $ to buy more quilting fabric
- Customer picked up her antique embroidered butterfly top that I custom quilted for her and raved about it
- Found food in the refrigerator for dinner – no last minute run to the grocery store
- Watched three episodes of “Nurse Jackie”
- Listened to the laughter of the kids next door splashing in their grandparents’ pool
- Fell asleep thinking about tomorrow’s fun
