Okay, here are some of the best things:
* Sweet corn from 454 County Road 34 West. Oh my God it's good!
* Columbian Supremo coffee from Zhers.
* Thunderstorms on a lazy summer evening.
* Naffele's guacamole.
* The TV show Hell's Kitchen. It's a cheesey reality show, and we love it!
* Everyday Italian on the Food Network. Yummy!
* A really good book.
* Getting emails from friends that are not jokes or warnings, but just a nice little one sided conversation.
* When Billy is proud of something I've done.
* Football on Sundays when I don't have an open house.
* Sharing a bottle of vino with friends.
* When friends/family appreciate your efforts.
* Being in the sun, taking a shower, then wearing a soft pair of joggies.
* Watching a really good movie.
* Billy's grey flannel pants.
* Finding something new growing in the garden.
Okay, of course there is way more...
The worst things:
* Discovering that I'm out of coffee. It happened today.
* When Halia whines when I'm busy.
* When children manipulate their parents.
* When people have to tiptoe around and make excuses for their spouses.
* Rain on golf day.
* Waking up at 5am, and not being able to fall back asleep.
* When the kids fight at the pool.
* Useless group pages.
The things I feel guilty about:
* Not having the bill for my orthodics resolved with the insurance company.
* Friends I know I should call. (Liz S, Sarah, Maryann, Lisa S, to name a few...)
* Not having the summer parties planned yet.
* When a house I have listed does not sell, although it is priced right and I'm doing everything I can.
* Not selling more houses.
Wow I could really go on and on, and I'm sure there are many things I missed. I'm sure there will be a part two soon.

What a wonderful thing to do! I read with great interest as you have always had a way with words. You didn't prove me wrong! I even shed a tear.

I love your blog...I hate endless group pages at 9am everyday!...I'm guilty of not keeping in better touch too.
Miss you, love you, see you soon.

Nice Blog. I don't usually get into these, but I think I will keep tabs on this one. I hear you about the tip toeing spouses, shouldn't they just stand up and take their place as every human being has the right to? The sunshine, shower and jogging combo is good too.

Thad,
People are going to think that you have a crustation fascination! I'll tell my friends about the clam phone next time I see them, so they won't be on the look out for a strange man wandering the streets trying to find a 'clam' signal.
Love ya!
