Thursday. It Was A Very Good Day!

I wish I had something to really blog about... seriously, I have nothing. I am a blank canvas tonight. Well, that is not actually true - I have lots going on in my head...but nothing bloggable or perhaps even interesting to you guys, so I will just recap the day and hope you can find something readable in the mix.

Today was a fun day. I dropped Hannah Joy off at school and then headed out to pick up my mother for some pre-holiday shopping at the mall. We don't often get to go somewhere by ourselves - usually I am using her as a babysitter so I can wander off alone to shop, or we have that cute little girl tagging along with us. It is a rare occurrence for the two of us to be alone and able to browse shops and have girl time. I am hoping we can find time to do more of it in the future, cause it was such fun.

We wandered into McAlister's Deli for lunch and were able to meet up with an old friend, I see them quite frequently, but my mom hasn't seen them in years, so it was a pleasant surprise and we all had a great time over lunch.

All too soon it was time to get the munchkin from school. She was so surprised and happy to see her MeMa at her school to pick her up. Afterwards we headed back to my mom's house for my daughter's favorite treat - multi-color sherbet!

The visit ended much to soon for my girl because she LOVES her MeMa and Papa, but we had to get home. I have spent the remainder of the afternoon cleaning the house, and reheating leftovers for my hubby's supper. I was actually productive!

My child played outside with our dogs until it was just too dark and too cold to continue...so they went to bed and now, as I type, this she is bathed and in bed and sound asleep!

I, too, am settling in for the night, only a few more dishes in the sink to wash and my housekeeping chores for the week will be over. Soon, my favorite tv show will start and I can sit back and watch with a clear conscience. Yipee.

Musing back over the day, it has just been a great one - a rare day where EVERYTHING goes right. These are few and far between in the life of this mom. I take what I can get and I am thankful beyond measure for them.

And, how was your day?

Living Happily In The Moment,
