list three things every day that made me happy (read all 294 entries…)
November 15th 4 days ago
  • Despite being sick with a stomach bug overnight, I was well enough to go into work for my Sunday shift.
  • Audrey joined me at work. She was very well-behaved and kept herself busy watching movies and drawing pictures.
  • After my shift, Audrey and I went around to mailboxes around the building to deliver her pictures.
  • Eric did most of the bedtime work for the girls since I was still feeling a little wiped out from my illness.

  • Audrey, Clara, and I went to Keaton’s 5th birthday party. It started at a nearby Fire Station then finished at a local restaurant for pizza, cake, and presents.
  • Uptown Normal was hosting a holiday event featuring horse-drawn carriage rides. Audrey was able to ride up front with the driver.
  • Eric, the girls, and I went out to Culver’s for dinner. Our Culver’s has a giant aquarium the girls enjoy.
  • I was able to get out and do 99% of the girls Christmas shopping.
  • We started our re-watch of Firefly. My mom is watching with us this time around. She loves Nathan Fillion so is enjoying seeing him in this role.

  • I found the Firefly series on sale for $12.99 on Best Buy. We’d been wanting to own it for a long time, but didn’t want to pay the $30-40 it usually sells for.
  • I also discovered the in-store pick-up option on the Best Buy website. It was super convenient to avoid shipping costs and be able to swing by Best Buy and have my purchase waiting for me.
  • Jenna, my mom, and I went out to see 2012. It was fun.
