A Rainy Saturday

hockey game (at a rink 1.5 hours away). check.

lunch with the family. check.

warm heat eminating from the stove whilst tea is brewing. check.

brother and sister gleefully playing pirates and maiden-in-distress. check.

dogs hovering at my feet awaiting yet the 356786645th ear rub from me. today. check.

pool about to overflow from heavy rains. check.

husband off to purchase pump to evacuate the water from said pool. check.

friends en route from Maine (two couples, one very, very pregnant with twins) for the night. check.

excitement brewing for triple date with said couples arriving for adult conversation and fun. check.

sitters for aforementioned pirate and maiden planned for evening. check.

and it's 1:00PM on Saturday.

Hope your day is as fun, and as filled with things you love!

and here is a little thing I received via email today ... thought it was neat.

The task is what it is. Your attitude is what you decide it is going to be.
Treasure the effort and you'll move effectively through it. Treasure the effort, and you'll joyfully create solid, lasting value.

-- Ralph Marston

yeah, I like that.

Sounds wonderful, Karin! Well, except maybe for the part about the pool overflowing. I hope you had a wonderful time with your friends!
