1) Watched the season premiere of Bones today, and the season finale of Warehouse 13.  Also caught episodes of a couple of mindless sitcoms.  Got to love Hulu.  Hmmm...that is more TV in one day than I usually watch in a week.  :-)

2) Having our kids out at the Corn Maize with us tonight and not having to worry about them because not only are they old enough to watch out for each other, they had better manners than most of the kids out there.  They were a great help...over a 1000 people came through today, 850 of them from 6-10. 

3) I am grateful for the lucky fact that even though I hacked 4 inches off of my hair while I was so sick, for some reason I was fortunate enough that it was still even.  Good thing I craft so much and eyeball measurements.

1) Watching the 3-4 year old class field trip out at the corn maize today.  That age group really understands the meaning of spontaneous joy.  It was so funny to watch them run and just leap in the air and spaz out because they couldn't contain their excitement.

2) Shon-O is home safe again.  His team also won  gift certificates  for Cabelas because of their awesome clay pigeon shooting skills.  Clay pigeons everywhere beware.

3) I am glad for rice bags.  My feet are sore and freezing after being out there tonight and it feels so good to have one by my feet in bed.

1) My monthly stamp group at the house tonight.  Some of us have been crafting together for 12 years.  I really feel like these ladies are part of my family.  We have all seen each other's kids be born, grow, graduate....laughed at kid stories...cried with one another when one of them lost her spouse to Parkinson's disease...prayed for each other...Sisterhood is seriously a gift.

2) Yay it was my month at stamp group which means I get to pick two free stamp sets and a $100.00's free!

3) Sitting in my room reading and daydreaming.  I like to look out the window because all I see is leaves.  An ever changing, shifting, living painting of light, shadow and color.  I feel like we sleep in a tree house.  No BOYS ALLOWED...except for the cute one I married. 

1) I am so glad that my sister is one of my best friends.  I am also so lucky to be be friends with my sister in laws.  It will be fun to see everyone in a couple weeks.  I'm hoping we slip some craft days in there.  I wish Bobbi could come too.
2) Even though our kids get along better than most, every family has the kids that butt heads.  I am so glad that tonight Joey and Toby figured out how to work out their argument without me. 
3) The kids had the kitchen clean and chores done before  we got home from the maize tonight...and I didn't even have to ask them....and they didn't do it to kiss up or because the wanted something. 

1) Shon is home safe and had a very successful trip.  A happy husband means a happy family. 
2) A quiet mini melt down and then taking a deep breath.  Now I can deal with things again.
3) A very productive and fun meeting.  Lots of decisions were made.

1) Shon's recruitment tonight went well.
2) I love that my kids are old enough to teach FHE and that they really get into discussing it.
3) We finally have a surgery date for Ali.

1) Shon's pot roast with potatoes and carrots.
2) My labeler
3) Being able to recycle metal.
