Making a list of happy thoughts is an easy way to find the good in every day.  Finding the good in every day is key to personal happiness.

Today is

And I’m going to share a list of my favorites from this past week.

Favorite # ONE

The Garden Center

at Hagan Ace Hardware

Recently my “cube mate” Michelle told me that whenever she is in a bad mood, she goes to the Ace Hardware on San Jose.  I wasn’t in a bad mood on Saturday, but we were in the area so LB and I decided to check it out.  $65 later we came home with 7 new plants.

It was SO hot Saturday afternoon as we walked around that expansive garden center, but all of that changed when the rain came on Saturday night.

I was pretty disappointed because it was date night and my outfit was cute.  The rain WOULS NOT STOP and the street was flooded.  It was impossible to step up onto the sidewalk from the street without wading through at least 4 inches of water.  We walked all around that block looking for a place to step up, but it was not to be.  My shoes were soaked.  My pants were soaked.  It was not a pretty sight after LB and Iwalked only one block to see

Favorite # TWO

Donny Osmond

 at the Florida Theater

This man is a true entertainer and his show was great!

Later that evening when LB and I got home, my pants and shoes were still wet.  It occurred to me that my shoes may be ruined which was a good excuse to buy a new pair.

Favorite # THREE

New Shoes

Metallic shoes are supposedly trending and I’ve been looking for a style that I like.  I saw some on the Chico’s website, but when I clicked on them, and was redirected to the shoes and accessories, they were not to be found.  So I looked to Amazon for help and sure enough… there they were.

Favorite # FOUR

A Day OFF

And I’m fixin’ to be out of vacation.

LB had a death in the family and needed to drive to GA to attend the funeral.  Needless to say, he wanted me to come along.  Thursday was not available, but the attendance manager helped me add a vacation day because she could see that someone was releasing their vacation day.  That was such a big favor and I just love her.  The only reason I didn’t use her as a favorite is because I didn’t get permission.

I decided my last Friday Favorite would be one that I have used many times.  LB and I ended the day with my favorite quisine… Salsa’s Fajitas
