3 Good Things

Feb 07

no doubt, it’s been a fairly crappy week around these parts so when i saw a 3 GOOD THINGS series, over on IROCKSOWHAT i sorta thought…this is for me.  it’s a good reminder that even when things feel craptastic – there’s some good in there.  here are mine:

1. i’ve been a crocheting fool.  a large group of crocheting mamas came over on sunday and i was able to finish up the baby blanket i’ve been working on.  i’m not gonna lie – i’m totally impressed by myself :) .  i love the yarn – it’s super soft and hand dyed and while i can’t wait to send the gift along, it’s going to be hard to say goodbye.  i’m currently working on a few small projects for upcoming birthdays and then i’ll be ready to take on my next.big.thing.  stay tuned.

2. ABN and i watched season 1 of the wire in the same way that we watched FNL.  it was supposed to be our date night – you know with sushi and red wine, or more recently, some paleo friendly home-cooked meal.  but the wire wasn’t really doing it for us.  the wire requires an attention that the a half a bottle of wine cannot sustain and ABN kept getting movie theater sweaty – it’s a thing.  so we decided that together we would move on to something new (suggestions?) but i decided that i could continue on with the wire on my own.  and i’m so glad that i did!  i’m only two episodes into season 2 and i’m already hooked.  in a world in which my dvr is currently filled with general hospital, the latest episode of the bachelor and bunheads – the wire is what was missing from my life.

3. my cute kid.  i mean even when she’s pale from a night of puking she’s still beyond adorable.  we spent most of yesterday cuddling on the couch – watching tangled and talking about the “bad mommy” and the horse, maximus.  she tends to get a little “stuck” on certain subjects so she also mentioned half a million times  that she “needs haircut,” “loves the count,” and “wants to ride a horse tomorrow.”  got it.

i don’t know about you but i’m all of a sudden feeling way better. thanks again, JESS, for making this all happen!

    Wire is awesome. Enjoy it. Mad Men and Breaking Bad are also our favorites. Firefly also very light, not too hard to follow along. I’m currently hooked on Downton Abby, but hubby isn’t into that one.
