Some very good things

Here are some very good things:

-The Roman blinds in our bedroom that my mom made for us. Finally after over a year and a half, no more blinding morning sun beating down on our sweaty bodies at 5am.
- New red duvet cover and chocolate coloured corduroy pillows for our bed from Ikea. It looks so great!
- Salsa. We made another batch the other day, and it is by far the best yet. Nice and chunky, not too spicy, but completely addictive. Used home grown jalepenos, early girl and roma tomatoes with the seed removed... I'll post the recipe once I get some ambition.
- The reality TV show Big Brother. It's on three times a week and is wickedly fun to watch with Billy.
- The weather lately has been awesome.
- I'm still in love with my new golf clubs, and I can't wait to golf this afternoon, relax and consume some Coors Light.
- Email and voice mail. I thank God everyday for these two technological gifts, they make life so easy (and fun).
- Neilson's Raspberry Lemonade is yumalicious. (probably 4 pounds of sugar per container...) Billy tried some of mine last night, and said, 'something doesn't taste right', and I reminded him that it was the first time in probably over a year that he drank it without vodka...
- Medium rare filet minon with blue cheese crust and roasted garlic cloves from the Keg. I've had two in the last 5 days...
- Gray 3/4 length joggies from Old Navy - still my fav for lounging.
- Last week's golf score at 7 Lakes - 43 on the back, not bad!
- 7 frogs in the pond - it's a good thing, they're getting used to me staring at them.
- Planned trip to Tennessee with Billy in the fall. Ah, can't wait!
- Planned camping trip with friends in late September, it will be fun!
- Starry, starry nights.
- The song 'Catch my Disease' be Ben Lee, and anything by Rascal Flatts.
- The book I'm reading right now, 'Separation of Power' by Vince Flynn.
- Taking care of business, (mortgage insurance, PepsiCo, volleyball meeting, stray bills, calling clients, etc) mostly completed.
- Looking forward to lunch with KT and Other Liz tomorrow.
- My uber-comfy although not too attractive orthodic sandals, I'm hoping to modify them for winter wear.
- Co-worker Cathy is in Tennessee and loving it, all major appliances are working, and they are going to book a week next year.
- Halia has been having fun and exhausting herself with Lily and Mike, making my life even easier than it already is.

Well, that's about it off the top of my head. The bad things are so few, unimportant, and completely negated by the good, I'm not even going to bother listing them.

Cheers to all! Have a great day!
