Humor

Sometimes a photo can't do a moment justice. Since adopting this feral cat two years ago, she has maintained her wild, "don't touch me" attitude. I've threatened to catch some of her "ways" on video, but today I finally did it. Today's moment: humor. For all of her meanness, I figure her eccentricities can earn me a spot on funny animal videos!

Lessons in delegation and...patience

I had one of those days. They write about these types of days. I opened my garage door this morning to find someone parked outside of it, blocking me in. After an hour, I finally able to get the car towed and escape to work, late. But, that just seemed to set into motion a series of unfortunate events. Today's moment: not the general dreariness and bitterness, but those who took work off of my hands and those who were patient with my bad mood.

How was your day? ;)

Let's Get Organized

It's funny how a little thing like organization can brighten someone's day. Today's moment: helping teachers migrate their desktop files to their Google Drive. The blessings and thanks I received made me feel as if I just saved their life. Small things make a big difference.

What little thing did you do that made a big difference?

It's a nice day for a sunny walk

It's been the week of clouds, cold, and overall dreariness. However, this afternoon, we had a short break with glimpse of the sun. It's amazing what a short walk in the sun can do.

Snuggies...

Are one of my favorite things...especially on cold days like today. Yes, they seem ridiculous, but have you tried one? Seriously - you have the ability to move your arms while staying warm. Great invention.

What are your favorite simple things?

Brrrrr...

It's got to happen at least once a year. And, today, it happened. It made it below freezing in central Texas AND there was a trace of precipitation. Though, it caused the usual panic, it also boosted viewership of the weather. Today's moment: an appreciation for Mother Nature.

Because everyone needs a nap

Sunday funday turned into nap time for the adults. Perhaps it was the fact it was Sunday or the cold, dreary weather, but everyone in the household was whooped. Today's moment: fatigue.

Flashback to the...1980s

It was, perhaps, one of the most colorful decades. And, in honor of a friend, we are bringing it back tonight. Today's moment: flashbacks to being a child in the 80s. I'm thankful for my colorful childhood and my awesome family.

What are you thankful for?

Bring on the Ninja

In keeping with our Ninja trend, +Brandie Cain-Heard gave me the ultimate gift this year: Ninjabread cookies. OMNinja!

So, tonight, in honor of my Google ninja friend, I am making them to share with friends. Today's moment: not taking yourself too seriously.

Because it's not just for looking good

It's no secret that I like to exercise. In fact, I have ditched many "fun" events for purely that  - working out. Today, I decided to skip a dinner with friends to work out. Worth every drop of sweat.

What's your guilty or not-so-guilty habit?

A Friendly Dinner

Today was one of those days - we've all had them. I was ready to come home and be left alone. However, I was greeted with spaghetti and bread and one of my favorite shows, Friends. A friendly dinner can cure most problems.

What's your cure to a day's stress?

The Power of Music

One of the things I look most forward to when I leave work is getting to turn up my radio and go home to my extensive Spotify playlist. I am instantly relaxed and content. I wonder how more focused I'd be if I got to use my playlist more often.

By the way - I get to go see this play. It has one of my favorite songs, "Falling Slowly."

What's your go-to music?
