Today is Sunday. And I am home. That is not something that happens here lately. Usually I am working. Which may pay the bills, but sucks as far as weekends go. But I am home today! And that is awesome! I have washed dishes, and clothes, cleaned my stove top, sent the kids to the park to play, visited with a few friends, and resolved to listen to The Beatles for a bit. Today there is nothing to feel sad about. It is a beautiful day and all is right in my universe if just for this moment.

I went to church today. I know. Please do not fall out. I had to pick up one from CCE and brought the other three. On the way in I ran into one of my beautiful friends. That I love so much. She was picking up her younger two from CCE so she went ahead and came too. It was awesome. A great start to a wonderful day. I have to say I have not been the best Catholic.  But I miss church. I grew up having it infused into everything. At the time I complained, but now, being older and wiser, I see it was fun. Some of the people we met have turned into friendships that have lasted lifetimes. I want so much to not have to work weekends anymore. So I can enjoy my weekends with the kids and my friends, and go to church. I know during the summer when it is elevendybazillion degrees outside and I have the week days to do things with the kids, the air conditioned work place will not seem so bad. The weather has just been beautiful lately. It just makes you have a good attitude. Today I am so thankful for the kiddos, all five of em. And even all of the friends' kids too! I am so thankful for a beautiful day. And great friends. And just the fact that I can get out and enjoy it. Instead of sit inside and be miserable. So with that...I am going to go hop into my car and head to my great aunts for a bit. My neck is hurting and if I continue to sit in this chair I will only want to go take a nap.

So you enjoy something today too. Take a minute and look around. And shake that funk. Be happy just for a moment.
