perfect moments this week
1. Oldest calls while I am at the train station. He has dropped a dish that was sentimentally important to me and it shattered. I tell him not to worry - it was an accident and things do not matter. I arrive home minutes later, he had already set the table, swept up all the shards and had tears welling in his eyes. So did I.
2. Sitting in the library. With an illegal chocolate donut and the sound track from The Royal Tenenbaums on my laptop.
3. After washing the towels on Tuesday, putting them, nicely folded, into the tidy linen closet.
4. Watching this guy on Ellen. Having no clue as to what he was painting. Sitting with my hand over my mouth in awe when it was revealed.
5. Youngest made his bed before he left for school each day.

The blog changes are nice; the blue is particularly soothing.
I loved Oldest and Youngest so much.
Aren't they sweet?
Why was the chocolate doughnut illegal?

And the painter guy? That was amazing!

Am washing towels tomorrow. Today I did SHEETS. I do find towel/sheet laundry to be oddly satisfying.
Clothes, napkins and tablecloths? Not so much.
Almost makes up for the INCREDIBLY NOISY STUDY AREA.
We do not have a patio, so no birdsong.
I will never again sit in my library without thinking of you.
Thanks BB, you rock.
I saw Denny Dent several times. (Actually, I hired him to perform at a conference I produced several years ago.) Check him out...http://youtube.com/watch?v=fXs4sT0f8Qg
He passed in 04, but wow was he talented.
