1. That our latest house hiccup (pack rats) was discovered while both my husband and father-in-law were here at the house. They discovered the pack rats. They took care of the pack rats. Me? I googled pack rats, read about them and saw how cute they are...yep, pack rats are little bit cute. They just don't get to live in my yard.
2. My husband is continuing to ensure the pack rat problem does not come back by having landscapers clean up the bushes around the yard - every bush will have the lower 2 feet cut away. Pack rats do not like sunlight and they don't like to climb trees (to hard to carry their "treasures"). I am so excited. The landscapers will be here on Tuesday!!!
3. For discovering Peter Walsh. For those who watched Oprah or Rachel Ray, you probably know all about Peter Walsh the decluttering guru. I ran across one of his Facebook posts recently and fell in love. I love to clean, declutter and organize! Too many moves recently has made my home the exact opposite of what I prefer, but I am gobbling up Peter Walsh's decluttering challenges (which you can read here) and reading his books. He has one for decluttering your house, your hips, your head and your finances. Loving them!!!! Love that my home and head are getting decluttered! (Finances are golden and the hips will come next!)
4. K having the opportunity to be in charge of our homeschool groups art activity. She did a great job of coming up with an idea (make caterpillars out of cardboard egg cartons) and executing it. She had one caterpillar to show off and then took the children through each step. The other teenagers jumped right in with setting up, preparing the egg cartons and helping the other children. It was great! The woman in charge of art day has asked K to do it again!
5. For so many things. A husband who loves and supports me. For children who are willing to work hard and jump into activities. For friends who love and support me. For lots of rain and lots of sunshine. I am feeling really blessed today.
Happy Walking!
