Two, littlest, and oldest

 1 Lunch with friends two days in a row. Feeling grateful to have you in my life.

2 Picking up the littlest little from school and having his face light up when he sees me.

3 My oldest son gave me his honest thoughts on a very sensitive question and I appreciate him.

3 Making peanut butter honey fudge for book club tomorrow.

My heart, songs, and time together

 1 Having an unexpected donut date with my son. He's such a busy guy so I loved that he took the time to visit with me. 

2 Sunshine just makes the heart sing.

3 We are taking our granddaughter to karate practice tonight and will grab some butter chicken from her favorite take out restaurant.

Coming, getting, and having

1 Coming to the realization that it's okay to walk away. Some people say they're there, but really it's just empty words.

2 Getting all of the pieces together for an unusual craft. Then procrastinating the day away. Sometimes it's perfectly okay to change your mind.

3 Having enough of cold weather and packing away my winter clothes despite it being chilly.

Snow day, techie, and I like it

 1 It snowed overnight and created a bit of driving chaos for some. Thankfully we both were home just before it really came down. Thankful for the neighbor who plowed our driveway this morning too.

2 Our furnace was misbehaving but I managed to fix it by reprogramming one tiny bit. All is well and warm now.

3 I'm often a bit disappointed after I get a hair cut but this time I really love it. My stylist was in a good mood, maybe that helped?

Sportsmanship, buds, and timing

 1 Our beautiful and talented granddaughter competed in the BC Winter Games and got 4th in Advanced Kata, a Gold medal in Advanced Kumite and the very prestigious award for sportsmanship. We couldn't be prouder and happier for her. 

2 Pussy willows to add to the mantle and for crafts. 

3 Having my guy there at just the right moment. He really is my person.

Steam, cookies, and sauce

 1 Days pass by and we are still in the throes of this cold. This morning we take turns sharing the boiled tea kettle. We place a towel over our head to make a steam tent. I'm pretending it's a fancy facial.

2 Yesterday I made peanut butter cookies for Mr P. Sadly he's got no sense of taste or smell but he's really going to enjoy eating them once he's well. Most are in the freezer.

3 We had extra cherry tomatoes and garlic going soft so I added olive oil, salt and pepper and roasted then blended everything together. Oooh I'm thinking it just might be perfect for a pizza sauce or maybe just a dip on crackers.
