Herrroooo friends! Hope your past two weeks have been splendid. Not being able to post a TILT list last week was weird! I really missed it. I look forward to Thursdays every week now because of TILT, but last week I was off the Internet, doing wonderfully awesome things with some of my favorite people. The past two weeks have definitely been full of blessings for me, despite a torn ACL. (Did I not tell you that? I forget. The MRI results came back. I tore my ACL. Anyway…) Let’s get to it!
THINGS THAT MADE ME SMILE THIS WEEK:
- Working a half day.
- Silly signs on the interstate in the south.
- Making fun of the south.
- Road trip food.
- Getting lunch with Tallahassee friends in Williamsburg, Kentucky.
- Weird hotel rooms.
- Smaller hotel beds (to maximize cuddling.)
- Naps in the car.
- iPod challenge.
- The Midwest.
- Ohio accents.
- Being surrounded by all my favorite people from my town IN A TOTALLY DIFFERENT TOWN AND STATE.
- Free drinks and food!
- 800mg Motrin.
- Taza coffee shop in downtown Cincinnati.
- The Creative Writing Box.
- Soy lattes.
- Midwestern homes.
- 17 years of marriage.
- New little black dresses.
- EVAN AND SUZANNE ARE MARRIED!
- Realizing how important they are to me when I saw her walking down the aisle and I immediately started to sob.
- “Dancing” (that is, moving in such a way that won’t hurt my knee) with my friends at the reception.
- Driving from Cincinnati to Tallahassee in one day.
- Long sleep.
- Getting an outrageously cute “GET WELL!” card from my mom.
- Margaritas with Lori and Angie.
- No cavities at the dentist!
- Having ministry meetings… over margaritas. (Seriously? These must make up like 60% of my liquid intake.)
- It’s my best friend’s birthday!
- Bringing a rose and a cupcake (with a MAN jumping out of it!) to said best friend at work.
- The orthopedic surgeon’s assistant. He was hilarious.
- Finding out I don’t have to wear my stupid knee brace from now until when I have surgery!
- Finding out I can use an elliptical machine with a torn ACL! YAY! Exercise!
- Uplifting emails/Facebook messages. I am truly blessed.
- Friends opening up to and trusting me with their struggles.
- The fact that like five people have told me this week that I should write a book. Wow. Should I? Would you buy my book? I’m pretty poor, so that would be nice…
- Encouraging and supportive coworkers.
- Last, but certainly not least, my wonderful, adorable, sweet husband, who cooks dinner for me every night and takes care of me and always puts me before everything else. I can’t believe that on Monday we’ll be celebrating two years of marriage. It gets better every single day, and I mean that.
Ahhh. What a great week. What do you love this week? Comment and let me know. Nothing makes me smile bigger than seeing joy come from my readers!
Glad you liked the card! Love you! and I Love Dan!
