"Coming Home"

Oh man, just watching this preview brings me to tears. Its about time they make a show like this. I am counting down the days till it airs, and stocking up on Kleenex.

"lovely day, lovely day"

When trying to think of what to name this post, the very first thing that popped in my head was the song "Lovely Day" by Bill Withers. I LOVE that song and felt it described exactly what I wanted to share. In case you haven't heard it, it should be playing right now at this very moment on my playlist. Turn it up, its good stuff I promise.

So today I had quite possibly the best day I've had in a really long time. I finally felt like myself after battling the flu and an ear infection. That's always good no matter what's going on. I had a really good day at work, I got a lot done, felt accomplished, and enjoyed everyone's company. Not to mention had the BEST burger ever for lunch (I get free lunch every day at work, did I mention I have the best job ever?) Ok, now I have to share what it was. It was from the Snake Bite in downtown Idaho Falls, right around the corner from where I work. Its a cute little hole in the wall restaurant where hip people go. Anywho, I digress. The burger. Its called the Blue Snake River, a blackened burger with a bleu cheese & green chilies dressing & bacon, on a croissant type bun. oh. my. heavens. SOOOO GOOD. Ok, enough about the burger, back to my lovely day. I get home and enjoy time with James watching our favorite show The Big Bang Theory which was exceptionally funny and eating some awesome Chinese food (which I couldn't eat very much of because of my previous high caloried burger for lunch, my stomach just couldn't handle all this yummy food). Went to James' basketball game and enjoyed not only watching the game but spending it with some good friends from my ward. Then came home, oh wait I forgot about Doc! He got groomed today and looks oh so adorable. I just love my best friend:) Oh yeah, I also forgot I was able to return my rental car this morning and get my car back. Long story short, a kid hit me a couple weeks ago, nothing major, and had to get it fixed which took a couple days. His insurance is paying for everything, the insurance company was surprisingly very cooperative, they're not usually, I should know I deal with them everyday at work. Not personally, I only get the claim info initially, but I get to listen to my lawyer boss chew them out. Its quite amusing actually. Ok ok, where was I. Oh yeah, I got back from basketball and enjoyed some more time with James and Doc, and then went over to my neighbors/friend/ward members house for her knitting night with some others and enjoyed their company for a while. Came home, watched another one of our shows and here I am. Ready for bed and felt like it wouldn't do my day justice if I didn't document it. It's so important to remember the good days to get you through the hard ones. Oh, and I read this today on a blog I follow:

"If we are afraid to do what we want, or are insecure of what others may think, then thoughts stay thoughts, visions stay visions, dreams stay dreams and good lighting passes us by."


Ah, time for bed. Nothing like ending on a good note.

love, love, LOVE
