one good thing, day four

ok, this is a good meme...it really does make a list of good things go through my mind, even on a day like today, where i might not be predisposed to look at it so.

i had to cancel the party for my robotics team tomorrow night because my teenager threw up this evening. but it is sort of a good thing because one of our teammates couldn't make the party tomorrow night, and it really will be better to have all of them there together.

we also got to have my nephew over for a couple of hours tonight, which was great fun, as usual. when my spouse and i sang "oo-ee-oo-ah-ah-ting-tang-walla-walla-bing-bang" to him tonight, he said, "that's one of my favorites"...and absolutely precious thing to hear from the mouth of a two and a half year old.

i've also been online most of today reading stephenie meyer's partial draft of midnight sun...that's been good.

and i got the teenager's room cleaned today...that was good. it was an organizational/decorating type cleaning, which is not his forte, but it got the room ready for next semester which has been a goal in the back of my mind for awhile. it worked out well that he was on the couch most of the afternoon, too.

so today was another good one. i'm grateful to mama jen for putting this meme out there. i am in such a great mood, despite the disappointment of cancelling the party tomorrow night. well, and the fact that christmas is coming and there's a little stress in that, but, again, thanks to my teenager's being sick, i seem to have a pretty clear weekend to get a lot done on that front, too.

peace
