Yes, It's FRIDAY! - And I'm thankful

                   

Yes, I know it's Friday, and I missed Thankful Thursday, but I don't care.  Here are some things I'm thankful for! 

1.  My job.  Sure, my building looks like a ghetto, and many of my co-workers are pretty flaky, but it's a job that pays bills, is flexible, and is conveniently near many coffee establishments.  Plus the scones they make across the street at the county building are to die for...yummy. 

2.  My 'guilt-stricken' ex-husband.  Yeah, you heard me say it!  He has promised to send me a rather large sum of money to pay for my kid's airline tickets.  Thank God for guilt. 

3.  Ben Gay.  I had to rub some on my legs last night, and now I wish I had it with me.  Wednesday I made a poor choice in shoes.  I wore these heavy heeled ones that are a size a little too big.  Now, my lower legs are sore from my knees down.  They have been aching since.  This is what I get for writing an entry about the white pumps.  See, if I had chose white pumps on the first day of Spring, I probably wouldn't have had this problem.  Too bad I don't own any.  I refuse!!

4.  Hot baths.  I took a nice hot bath yesterday because of my legs.  I must do it again.  After sitting there however in the tub I found some mildew hiding under the soap holder.  Eeekk!!  Must spray some Lysol on that today! 

5.  My husband.  Last night while I was on the phone, he caught my youngest with POOPY PANTS!  Thank God he was there to help clean the poop! 

6.  My kids.  They keep my life busy.  Sometimes I wish I could just sit all day and do nothing with my life--maybe work on my crochet again, but I think that would get pretty boring after awhile. 

Yesterday afternoon, after the POOP incident I went on to clean my kitchen and front door entrance area, and decided to take a peek outside the front door.  There was my dead, dried up flowers sitting there right near the water can.  How depressing is that!?  I almost took a picture of it.  I think I was able to save a few potted plants I had out there, but then I saw these enormous weeds growing in other areas of the front yard!  Oh the horror!  If my neighbor, Mary Stewart--the woman with the most beautiful garden I've ever seen should happen to walk by and see this diaster area I think she would cry!  I was able to pull out most of them yesterday, but I'm determined to buy some Primroses and repot some plants, and pull up some weeds!! 

Gardening, and passports.  That is my quest this weekend.  I also have an interview Monday afternoon.  I don't know what to wear.  I was told I should wear a suit.  Blah!
