Dear Diary,

Today I had little happy bits through the day.  I boldly introduced myself to a woman reading a French novel, and we now have a next date to speak French.  I took my husband the Simpsonphile on a mystery date to the Seattle Kwik-E-Mart and made him happy.  My daughter fell asleep on my lap in the recliner while reading together (that doesn't happen much anymore), and I savored it.  We bought a fan for the living room, and that made a difference.  I had a WONDERFUL time in chat just now.

           I would say that was a great and wondrous day Elle.  The fact that you noticed, that it s the little things, that mean the most..The noticing is the greatest gift we give ourselves, I believe.   Happy Anniversary to you our dear.



     Beautiful mind

After weeks of procrastination, I'm feeling proud because I completed one of my summer projects:  to recover the seats on our six kitchen chairs and the two bar stools.  They were originally some off-white fabric -- rather impractical, I know -- and were stained after a month.  Now they are a very forgiving black-and-tan checkered fabric (in a small design to eliminate any centering problem), and they look great! 

Oh, the things you can accomplish with a staple gun!





Marlene, I'm curious.  Never enough what?  What were they referencing?

Fran, I have no idea, really.  I guess that's why I liked it.  I thought the pictures were vegatables, though now I am not sure, but I really don't know what is 'never enough' for them.

Well, my little orphan mice died--one last night and one today. I feel sad--they were really active Tuesday morning.  I was feeding them throughout the night and day at least every 3 hours for the past 5 days. Maybe a couple of times 2 hours and a couple of times 4. And I had newborn formula---it was for cats, but that's what the web suggested. It said they were almost impossible to raise--and these were orphaned before their eyes opened. Poor little things. My science teacher friend told me yesterday that the second one was going to die too, since his brother/sister died. So, kind of a bummer 2 days. I know, I know---they were MICE!!! But still, some of you  know what I mean.

Aww Shasta, that is too bad, and sad. I know exactly what you mean, even though they were little tiny mice, they were still living things, with souls, I believe.  So sorry to read of this.
