things worth cheering about right now
July 13, 2008I’m pretty funkadelic funkalicious right now. But I am still seeing things worth cheering about right now. Things like:
- a brand new haircut. I’m light and airy now. I heart short hair.
- rocking my niece to sleep this afternoon. She’s a sugar-butt.
- new sushi restaurants. Bring on the wasabi!
- getting fun mail from friends. (pink envelopes!)
- sitting outside with a cool breeze.
- a new stack of books.
- chocolate carmel freezes.
- fresh summer plums. (Why are most of my cheering thing food?)
- sticky fingers.
- fluffy pillows.
- encouraging emails from friends. I’d be in a downward spiral without you all.
That felt so good. Whatcha got on your cheering list?

sunshine on my face,
cool breeze in the air,
wind rustling in the trees,
catching up with a friend after several months apart,
completing a project,
making other’s feel important

after reading your brother’s blog today for the first time, i would say that one of the things worth cheering up about is basic human compassion and what we do for the people we love.
