1. egg white, kale & cheese scramble for breakfast - we're doing a 21 day Greens for Breakfast Challenge

2. when my son laughs, really truly laughs - it's a helluva sound

3. home school means if Mommy didn't go to sleep until after 3 am and then slept in until 10 am it is all ok

4. we have been getting dressed everyday instead of staying in our pjs

5. i am going to make homemade pizza for dinner tonight

6. the winds mean we can hear wind chimes, even if they are not ours - which I have hanging in my bedroom from my ceiling fan

7. having unpacked 3 boxes yesterday & going to unpack more today

8. nice, quiet days with my son in a house where we can move about freely and use the kitchen and living room and everything instead of staying in our teeny bedroom

9. Love never ends, it just shifts

10. writing

1. sleeping (almost all of the night) in my own bed, alone

2. when the Little Dude climbs in with me in the morning to cuddle & snooze a little more

3. homemade oatmeal & brown sugar waffles

4. being able to listen to our music again

6. sigh, being in the house alone with my son -- so much nicer, less stressful

7. starting to get ourselves on a routine as best we can in the middle of everything else & everyone else's attempts to control our days

8. time - a month later there is less - less pain, less anguish, less despair

9. that Love is

1. more hot tea & cocoa for the Boy

2. sleeping in still feels ok & good & necessary -- one day it won't & we will get back on a schedule

3. the flexibility of home school is going to at least be one less stress on me today & tomorrow during this hellacious next move

4. spending last night playing LEGO games with my kid was good for us both

5. i am really truly soo grateful I didn't unpack but a handful of boxes and that repacking and shuffling around is my priority during the day time hours today

6. i am thankful my aunt has a washer & dryer cuz we are gonna be doing laundry on Monday w/o needing quarters or walking outside

7. so appreciative that i don't need to deal with setting up of utilities or cable or internet with this move, just one less hassle & i so need any less hassles i can get in my life right now

8. Pandora keeps introducing me to some new to me songs & artists & that has been very cool

9. knowing i am loved is a bit of a consolation for everything else

10. today is another day...
