Reason 1: I think the little one is finally figuring out this whole big girl bed thing. Naptime consisted of only three little swats for getting out of bed, then she cried for awhile and fell asleep in bed. At bedtime, she got out once and came down the hall. I told her to go back to bed and she turned around and went back into her room. About 20 minutes later I peeked in and she was still awake, but hadn't cried at all. I'm assuming she's asleep. Don't really care as long as she's on her side of the door and isn't screaming.
Reason 2: I stopped by the Jeep dealership and picked up a knob for the Jeep's air conditioner (the one that controls whether the air is coming from outside or is recirculating or if you want a/c or heat). It's been broken for, oh, I'd say a year probably, maybe more. I tied a ribbon to it and a note that said "Happy Monday, Chris!" and hung it in the garage where he'd be sure to find it. He loved his gift.
Reason 3: I took the VW in to get an oil change. I thought ahead and picked up the trash and stuff inside which I normally forget about. I don't really care so much about the oil change, but the freshly vacuumed interior and the washed windows have me psyched! Since I washed the car last week for the first time in, oh, I'd say a year probably, I'm pretty pumped about it looking nice inside and out.
Reason 4: Clara did awesome the entire time I was running errands this morning. She got lots of hugs and kisses for being such a good girl.
Reason 5: I got a package in the mail from my momma. She knew that I have, like 5 shirts to my name, (other than ratty t-shirts), so she sent me 6 new shirts! Yay! I'm set now. Add to that the two I picked up last week that I spent a grand total of $2.14 on with my JC Penney coupon for $10 off a $10 purchase and I'm stylin. Thank you Momma!! And Clara got a little something, too of course.
Reason 6: Chris and some of his co-workers were treated to a movie this evening. They went and saw Bourne Ultimatum. Nothing like free entertainment.
Reason 7: I scooped poop tonight and now have a poop free yard.
It's the little things in life that make my day (and the free things).

Yay for a good Monday! Way to go, Clara! One day down, two more to go. She will get it.

I'm with you girl! I think I washed my car the other day for the first time in a long while too! I now need to go and get the oil changed and a nicely vacuumed interior and clean windows would be wonderful since I was too lazy (and it was too hot) to do that while washing the car!
What a great day! I loved the one about the Jeep part :-)
I think Clara is doing really well (of course, I wasn't the one up all night a couple nights ago). You're sending all the right messages, and she'll catch on quickly.
Way to go Clara, you are such a big girl. Come to my house and show your cousin Wyatt how it is done.
We need to get a few nobs for our car too, maybe I should take the same approach.
