Being home before midnight and being able to sleep in a bit tomorrow - maybe until 6:30??

Well not quite- about 5:30.

New UP: listening to the CDs of jazz music I just got....wonderful way to start the morning!

My son has started making me tea in the evenings.  It is really sweet.  He even asked me in advance last night, telling me when he was available to do it!

DB told me he loves me for the first time ever!  And he was so amazingly sweet about it.  And I get to see him on Monday!!! [smiley=love.gif]

Hearing that the Bulls beat the Spurs in a pre-season game.  And receiving a Mario Badescu e-gift card from my friend for my birthday.

Having  a  super  time  at  the baby shower  that  was  thrown  for me..(thanks again, Pebs!!)  It was  wonderful  to  chat  and  catch up.. and  I needn't be worried  about the mix  of Brits  to  US  gals..(it was  foreign  and  fun..and  everyone played  along)   It was  LOVELY!!   ;D ;D

Back in August I won a contest with a drawing I did, I was told I'd be getting a ton of hershey bars and a postal order with a sum of money in it. Months went by and I didn't get it,so I put it out of my mind and figured the person didn't send it after all.but today I finally get the package! (it was dated August 6th! lol) so yaaay I got me some hershey bars!
