Four days (last Fri through this Mon.) of the most awesomest uber good perfect fall weather EV-ER! Just enough breeze to rustle a steady, downward flow of crunchy orange and brown leaves in our front yard and up and down our block. Gorgeous!
Decaf coffee, still -- it's hot, rich. (Two things I'm not.)
Teachers who are willing to email. (ALL of my kids' teachers have provided blessedly helpful tidbits and check-ins.)
That I can read a magazine while walking on the treadmill without any tripping tragedies, yet. Makes the 30-minute escape to the little local gym more of a mini-get-away.
Fall decorations.
A visit from a lovely gentleman from the MFHS '57 basketball team (1st to make state tourney for li'l ol' MF), bearing kind gifts of old history textbooks (1930s) and autumn-themed ceramic platter, creamer, and sugar . . . other sweet items, and a most pleasant conversation.
Firepit s'mores at a friend's house.
Having a husband that is hands-on, co-parent. (I'd otherwise lose the rest of my mind.)
