4) hope.

5) plans to see my sister for Thanksgiving.

6) a relatively stress-free week coming up.

I am so proud of this country for electing Barack Obama!!!
I am so hopeful for all he will do for this nation.
I am so thrilled to have a Democrat in the White House (very soon).

I am happy for:

1) being able to sit here with my sweetie and have a glass of wine before dinner. (A rare treat.)

2) being able to plan for the kids coming for Christmas and not stress out about it.

3) being able to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

4) yummy baked pork chops and rice.

5) thinking about taking a bath later.

6) making contact with an old friend.

7) sleeping late on the weekend on 300 thread count sheets.

8) fall is here and it’s only 80 degrees out.

It is absolutely wonderful to come home from work and sit on the couch with a nice glass of wine before dinner.

I also love the way the house fills with such a yummy smell as my popovers are baking. mmmmmmmm.

It’s also nice to ignore the irritating solicitor who just rang my doorbell. (go away!) (and let me enjoy my solitude!)

1) Did a prelim today on a scary case and got the case bound over to district court.
2) Resolved a puzzle/problem with one of my other cases.
3) Phone call from my DH’s X today, and came out on top. She is so irritating!! and manipulative!
deep breath
4) Having a hot cup of tea with my hubby before we go to bed.
5) Basically felt like I’m unstoppable all day.
6) Going to San Diego with my hubby this weekend! to the beach!

Today, I am grateful for:
1) Ice coffee. With a lot of Milk and a little Splenda.
2) Having this Friday off from work.
3) Having a job I don’t hate/ usually enjoy. (Rare.)
4) We had cool people over for dinner last night. It was fun and I realized we can have people over and I don’t have to worry about not living in a McMansion.
5) I for one, am greatful it is somewhat close to almost being Fall. It is too damn HOT here in Vegas. Fall is perfect here.
6) my nice clean house.
