Super Tuesday

Eight things I love about today:
  1. No school!!!! Not sure what other counties do, but we shut down the schools on election day because we use the facilities for polling stations.
  2. I finished a book yesterday - Surprised by Joy by C.S. Lewis. I'm reading The Lovely Bones today. Even though it gave me bad dreams, I love it. It's like an episode of Criminal Minds from the point of view of the deceased.
  3. I get to have my hair cut. I love that girly time. I don't get much of that.
  4. The boys mowed the grass.
  5. I don't have any laundry to do!
  6. I had an excellent run on my mountain this morning. I love the smell of the pine forest after a rain. I love it very much.
  7. I've had time to read blogs today. I'm linking up to Emily's tuesdays unwrapped.
  8. Jack and I went to the animal shelter to get ONE kitten yesterday. I couldn't separate brothers, so we came home with two! I'm enjoying them today. It's been a long time since we've had anything that scampered. Dale is on the left (or top, depending on your screen), Boomhauer on the right (or bottom). They are NEVER still, so these are the best shots I've got.

  2. sweet wittle kitties! It must be spring with all these animals around. It's like creature theme week on the blogs I've been checking out...but don't worry, you are my first kitten post.
    I can't be friends with you though. I can't be friends with people who get all their laundry done. I'm too jealous.

  3. Oh what gorgeous kittens! Major kitten envy now - although I'm getting chickens on the weekend which may calm my animal-need slightly :-)

  4. Happy list!! Love it.

    I was on the fence about the Lovely Bones. It definitely has that can't-look-away creep factor. ;)

  5. I love reading about how God blesses others in the little things. And we moms sure know how to appreciate the small things, like mowed grass and a trip to the hairdresser! We can all share in your happiness. Praise God for how he lavishes his grace upon us!
