Welcome to Friday!

Some good things to think about, in addition to the start of a healthy dose of weekend ahead:
-
Our lilacs are in full bloom! 
They smell as lovely as they look.
I took three kids to the dentist yesterday, and the result was no cavities.
-
Tonight's dinner?  Already done.
-
There's a large container of chocolate chip cookie dough in the refrigerator, waiting to be baked into warm little bites of deliciousness.
-
The weekend forecast says SUN and warm temperatures!
-
This morning, while emptying the trash, $26.00 came tumbling out.  A nice tip for taking out the garbage.
-
When Enrique called me to say he had no cash and no clean laundry, our mutual friend (who happens to be a professor at UMass) was able to scrape together $5.78 in spare change from her purse and car to help him gather a pocket full of laundry money.
-
After two LONG weeks of being both mom and dad, I am especially giddy about the prospect of having Mr. Dub around again very soon.
-
...and...
-
Someone's turning 16 tomorrow--party on the horizon!

Those are good blessings to count! Glad you won't be single any more!

Wow! What a weekend!

Also, kudos to you for being a mom with a husband who travels a lot for work. (I assume it is for work.) I do not know how you do it. You must just be terribly awesome.

Your lilacs are beautiful! Nice to have a $26 tip!! Many ice creams at Kimball's!! Gee, Enrique has no money--glad he had a friend who could help him out. And it is hard to believe that Mesquite will be 16. Those years went by very quickly. And, welcome home Mr. Dub.
