Did you do or see anthing or anyone this weekend that made you happy, laugh, etc.? :idontno:



This morning we kayaked with Gypsea- her company is always enjoyable and fun. We took to the marshes at the back of Western Lake into the creek/canal. It was like another world- but the best part was seeing 2 very young blue heron chicks. They were still pretty fuzzy.:wub:

Can you deliver that pie to Cleveland?

Finding out this weekend that our middle son is moving back home. Got accepted to school in Cleveland and will be back early next week.



:wave: I could make one for you to take back with you.....how long is that drive?
I don't think it would make it though.;-)

We will be down there starting the 28th. I will have to look you up for a piece of that pie. That would be after we tried dinner there.

A long afternoon nap with my doggies.

Clearing off my desk after being gone a week, so I can catch up on the board. :cool:

Watching my husband get to sail on Sunday after a big rain in Saturday. And seeing the guy who mows the "vacant" lots in our sub-division tackle the 5+ feet tall grass in the lot next to ours!

I saw a photo this weekend that made me happy and laugh--I'm sure being there was even better, but the Kitty sandwich photo is priceless! :wub:
Honestly...my hummingbird feeder and its friends are an endless source of happiness for the Pods. We sit out on the deck--very quietly--and watch them, listen to their wings and freak out every single time over how fast the wings whir. It's kind of corny, maybe, but it has become our summer hobby.

hummingbirds are my absolute favorites !

Slow dancing with Rowie P at the Red Bar.

Things that have made me happy recently:

Tuesday-Friday: a safe, educational business trip to St. Augustine. Even if it is during the most absolutely busiest week of the year for my desk...:blink:

Friday: I-10 Westbound. Jax to DFS. 4 1/2 hours.

Friday afternoon: walking in my front door with my brother and his family and seeing my OTHER brother and sister-in-law! Oh, and Fuzz and Squirt too. :wub: :D

Friday night: going out to dinner with my ENTIRE immediate family, save for my two nieces. :clap:

Monday afternoon: seeing my freshly repaired computer plugged in and ready to go. Ten days with no internet. My eyes are bleeding from the beach thread. :blush:

mozilla firefox's newest version for the web browser has a built-in spell checker. It will underline, in red, any misspelled words. RiverOtter, you need to get the latest version. I didn't realize how many words I've been misspelling until I recently downloaded the recent version. I :wub: mozilla firefox.

This makes me happy. I went shopping yesterday (big damage, I'm happy to say ;-) ) and I notice that they're coming out with a lot of tops that have no scratchy labels sewn in at the neck. What a relief that someone figured out how to print the brand name instead. Bye bye tags! :clap:

My husband snoring. He travels so much for work, that it is a pleasant sound.

Other than my family:

An afternoon nap when I really need it and I fall asleep easily for about an hour after reading a few pages of a magazine

Sitting down and reading a good book, especially on the porch or at a beach

Being at any beach, especially early in the morning when it's quiet and cool (of course, Sowal and our cottages are my favorite beach places)

Eating dinner (or any meal) with family and friends (and even people I just met) and just catching up and spending a long time around a table

Holidays with family

My job (I'm lucky with that one)
