79 days...

When our landlords moved out of our house and transferred their mail, this did not stop the flow of random catalogs that arrive at our house. For a while, I would throw them away as they were marked "for current resident," and I was sure these would be reordered at their new house. Then, I started to browse one last week, and it was FULL of the most exciting and random Christmas items! When I found one in the mailbox this afternoon, I was soooo excited to look through it. I guess this new catalog love has made me a little pathetic, but it's definitely gotten me in the Christmas spirit already! Now, I can't wait to start decorating our new house for the season...especially hanging stockings for Devin, Blue and me!

Life is...

...laughing with my husband until we both can't breathe.
...watching my dog chase a toy around the house.
...smelling the fresh rain as I'm leaving work.
...sitting on the porch with neighbors while our dogs play together.
...finding a cereal that I love on sale at Publix.
...knowing I have Halloween candy hidden and not eating
any of it...yet.
...renting a movie and talking to the employees who know
us by name.
...eating a homemade dinner at the end of a long, long day.
...smiling just because I see my Babe.
...smiling just because I think of my Babe.
...knowing my Babe loves me as much as I love him.

Life is very, very good!
