Theme Songs

Yes, I am quite crazy and hear music where ever I go, my parents raised me that way. Happy music, angry music, sad music, celebration music - you name it. And these songs change as the wind blows. I don't have one theme song my friends, I have many.

I am at a very happy point in my life but sometimes, even in the best of times, something knocks you on your arse and yesterday was one of those situations. It happens and you deal and move on (okay, I am really bad at moving on and not obsessing but it's my blog so let's pretend I have a handle on this for now).

As I am sitting at work listening to my music - headphones in as I am in cube world - it occurs to me just how much I have to be singing about right now. Then Andy Grammer (who?) comes on and starts singing about keeping my head up, so I can let my hair down...I start dancing in the cube. This is followed by Good Life by One Republic, please tell me what there's to complain about. Absolutely nothing.

Find theme songs people, it just might change your outlook on the day :) Enjoy the Good Life and Let Your Hair Down!

PS: Thank you to those cars who waited for the family of ducks to cross the street today, that was an awesome way to start the work day:)

The Pines and Growing Up

Tomorrow the boy heads to a church camp for a week that he LOVES and attends by himself every year. This year, a buddy who has been a little nervous to go alone, decided today to hit the bus with Reills tomorrow and attend teen week at The Pines.

For the past 20 minutes my kiddo has been telling his buddy how 'awesome' camp is and how it will be great. How he will be there with him and they will rule the camp. My little boy is a full fledged, independent and strong teenager. Sigh.

After a very productive day that started early for a Saturday with a kick butt workout and ended with a yummy dinner with my boys, I could be happier. This is not only my happy moment for the day, it will get me through the week if not longer.

All I can say is - thank you angels, you are watching over us again and keeping my very strong, independent boy just that way and secure in who he is without a second thought.

God Bless all! May you have a wonderful 'angels are smiling on us' moment too! :)
