wait, there's more

• there are only 2 emails in my inbox. (quite the accomplishment considering there was something like 230 at the beginning of this week....just lots of things that needed an action step - or that needed to be printed and filed - things that needed to get done but i hadn't had the chance to do...now we're down to 2! and those are all do-able, too - just not quite yet...each one needs another piece of information or 2 in order to be taken care of and then they shall be DELETED, too!)(but by that point there may be more that need attention...not sure it'll ever be empty...and that's ok!)
  
• trash service. it's pretty amazing that i can just haul cans of trash to the street and it gets whisked away.
• the kids that pray on ihop.org -- wow!
• kim's buffalo chicken dip. i had lunch at 10:30 this morning...i couldn't wait any longer!!! (but now it's all gone...)(btw - i'm trying to add to kim's blog shout outs this week)
  
• making flags with carey. it was fun! not to mention i just love spending time with her.
  
• a flexible "lunch hour"...i can use 15 minutes here and 15 minutes there...and 15 minutes later (and still have 15 minutes left over to play with)
• the TA "25th Anniversary" stickers - it's fun to seal envelopes with them
• a cup of colorful pens
• caroline's hair is tangle free (or at least it was last night) (we don't thoroughly brush it nearly enough!!)(and getting it to the 'tangle free' moment was less than enjoyable...but we made it....and it's so pretty!)
  
• the thoroughness and efficiency of Joy Crumpton....this lady has always impressed me...and now, even more.
