Today I spent some time talking to a friend who really needed me. Not me particularly, I think, but a friend, so we talked. I've been feeling overwhelmed by my "situations" and I guess I forget that other people are going through stuff too. Anyway, I think that qualifies as my good thing for today. There was a hug at the end of the conversation.
I also burned up the email lines (and how does email get from one place to another anyway?) with my friend Mary Beth. We have been sending each other funny stuff (questionable as to how funny it is to anyone else) and hysterically laughing. And developing our positively diabolical plan to play a prank on her husband. One he will never appreciate. Or understand. I totally think more planning is required--we don't want the whole thing to go horribly awry. It has to be something that we can also play on other people, so we can get more mileage out of it. I'm thinking my sister and my son....
Looking forward to this weekend. I'm going to babysit my gorgeous granddaughters tonight for a while, then tomorrow I'm going to work in the garden, and mow the grass. And nap. Definitely nap. On Sunday I'm meeting Mary Beth for lunch at my favorite place. We need to firm up the "plans". Will fill you in as things progress.
A former family from my classroom (my first class) visited today--my little friend is so grown up! Her mom is from Belarus and she just raved over how wonderful our class was and how much she loved her daughter being in our class. It was wonderful--sometimes we get bogged down in our daily work and forget how much of a difference we can make. And I can use all the positive energy I can get right now.
Have a lovely evening!
