Simply Great Day
Truth be known, I have been in need of a day filled with simple pleasures for some time now. Today was the closest day to that I have experienced, well, for some time now.
At work I was able to clean, organize, and throw away (hallelujah) things in a couple of cabinets. That made me happy, happy, happy. And at home, I attacked a few stacks and also cleaned, organized, and threw away some things. Yea!!!
Then this afternoon, we traveled to God's Country to watch my oldest son play basketball. The entire team played well (and my son played well - sinking four 3 pointers and scoring 16 points) and they won what was a really close game. And . . my oldest son fouled out for the first time in his life! Not good that he fouled out in a close game, but he showed great aggressiveness on defense - we like that. These boys really needed this boost - basketball has been way too complicated to even write about.
Then, with my youngest son being cheerful because we were going to one of his favorite places to eat, we trekked to Eskimo Joe's. A Christmas tree decorated with orange and black, and topped with an orange cowboy hat, decorated the restaurant. Not my traditional decorating colors, but I really liked it!
Cheese fries with bacon and a Fowl Thing - a little slice of heaven smothered with sin. And to really make my day - I was the only one who received the new Centennial Celebration Joe's cup - AND it was pink. Woo hoo - life is good!!
Such simple pleasures for a simple kinda' girl.

I love it when we have a day of simple pleasures. What more could a girl ask for? I'm so happy that the basketball team - and your eldest son had a good basketball experience.

For some reason I'm now hungry for cheese fries. Glad you got to do some of your favorite things with some of your favorite people!
