I'm done with my math homework and my Spanish that's not due till Thursday!
Good lord! Homework done early, whatever next!

Think that's something? I've already begun work on my research paper due Feb 8th.

I found out that an acquaintance (hate to call him that, but we really don't converse outside of band class.) is also an atheist.

It's just incredible to me because I've been led to believe that I'm totally alone. That's not based on rationality, I know, but still atheists are rare around here and it's unlikely they'll actually be somebody I talk to.

That is defiantly a reason to be cheerful.  ;D


Spending some quality time with my brother, doing math problems. Our enjoyment of math is one of the few thins we have in common.

I get to see my beautiful little munchkin (aka my daughter) in 14 hours! I've been away from her since Monday and I've missed her so much!

NOTHING in this world is more precious to me than seeing her yell 'Mama!' and running into my arms for a hug and a cuddle.  ;D

One day there's going to be a moment when there will being an atheist 'comming out' cascade in the USA. I hope it's soon.

I collect my year old grandson from play group 3 days a week. The class he is in has a window where you can watch what's going on. When I collect him I like to watch what he's doing rather than just go in. When he notices me I get a great big smile and he waddle/runs to the door and wants a hug!

So sweet when your little ones get so excited to see you.  That is a very warm and cuddly feeling. 

My reason to be cheerful - I saw my cousin and aunt yesterday and ate dinner with them.  My cousin lives about 2 hours away and my aunt lives in Florida, so I don't see them nearly as often as I would like, and I love them both like crazy.  My cousin's little girl has started walking since the last time I saw her, and she is getting so big!  And speaking of big, my cousin is now 7 months pregnant, so she's got quite a a tummy on her these days (her children are going to be like 14 months apart -  :o - she's going to have her hands full!)  It was so nice to see them.  And T (my son) was so good with my cousin's little daughter.   :)

I must be having a sappy day because these both just made me mist up. <3
"We've thought of life by analogy with a journey, with pilgrimage which had a serious purpose at the end, and the THING was to get to that end; success, or whatever it is, or maybe heaven after you're dead. But, we missed the point the whole way along; It was a musical thing and you were supposed to sing, or dance, while the music was being played.

It's official. I just purchased my plane ticket - I'll be moving from Saint Paul, MN to Florida on March 26th. It's bittersweet.
Where in Florida?

Palm Bay. It's about an hour south of Orlando. My mom, step-dad, and sister live there.
From a quick Google that looks lovely!
