Grateful
It's been a long day. My husband has been gone since 5:30am and, after a brief 5-6pm stopover at home, is gone again, till maybe 11pm.
So, I was lonely today. But these are some things that made today good.

Dancing to Strauss in the kitchen with Turtle and her teddy bears
A little companion that rolled, walked through and un-raked all the leaves I raked up in the yard
A "ug" (hug) from Turtle, obligingly given when I really needed it
The nice man in Blockbuster who let me have his two free movie rentals
My dear husband NOT shooting a deer this morning (shh! don't tell him!) so that my pregnant-woman-raw-meat-aphobia-ness didn't have to go nuts when globs of hair-covered, practically-pulsing, red-dripping meat were carried into my kitchen and strew all over the counters and sink. Whew.
