Do you wash dishes...
Or let them wash you?

Thoughts on
what brings me joy:
Nature:  What is miniscule and un-noticed;
tiny things that are in the grass, trees, immediately surrounding us
and within reach.
And Greater Nature:
What is beyond
our world; the moon, clouds,
always-present, but
always-invisible
thoughts and sensations.
Looking at a tiny form,
gazing at the moon,
or feeling any strong emotion,
is specific to each person.
And is amazing,
and always precious.

I began Ready? GO!
As a space to share
joy,
funny quirks,
noticing nature, and
spreading goodwill.

Share your happy thoughts
here,
and on Facebook.

And share with friends.

Thought of the day:
A crockpot is your own
private chef;
preparing perfect meals
while you are away.
Thank you, crockpot.
You rock.

Ready? GO!

Live music at a friend's front porch.

Waking from home to
Santa Fe Plaza
for
Free- Museum Night,
dinner,
and
beautiful moon for
the walk home.

Pure pride:
Today, one of the
high school students
I work with,
wore a suit and tie.
Today was school photo day.
When asked if it was his idea,
or his mother's,
"It was my idea".
Completely Spectacular.

Ready? GO!

Hearing from a dear friend,
and having her actually
CALL,
and reach me during a 5 minute break.
= A good day.

Lucky and happy;
Stopped at my doc's office
to get a prescription refilled;
lucky,
they worked me in for an appointment,
happy, I'm "as healthy as a horse",
and happy to be on my way
quickly.
Health is priceless.
Ease of healthcare is
beyond priceless.

People being nice:

The bike shop employee 

who offers me a discount,

when she hears I'm buying something

for Special Education kiddos.

= Fantastic!

Thank you!

The greeter-at-the-door at Verizon,

who realized my question,

(Can I get a discount for 

working for the Public Schools)? 

could be taken care-of quickly,

and moved me to the front of

The Quick-Answer Line.

And the answer is: Yes.

18% off my monthly bill,

plus a few extra perks...

Thank you -Twice!

Pomegranate red
Sunrise
Greets our Friday.

Amused that the
artificial turf
high school
football field
is
fluffed today,
before tonight's game.

Drove all over the county
Today
And love the scenery
In all directions.

I'm thrilled to see a photo of
my past neighbor's puppy,
enjoying the stuffed lobster
I sent.

Ready?
GO!

Seeing a child
Who previously was unable...
To get up from the floor
Without help.
She did it today
With a beautiful smile.

It may be mid-September:
But I still put on shorts
When I get home from work!

Looking forward to attending
My first
New Mexico wedding
This weekend!

About a week ago,
in response to being
frustrated with so much
negativity in the news
and on Facebook,
I started posting a daily
Ready? Go!
on Facebook:
Listing the little
happy things
I noticed in my day.
I tagged friends and family
who inspire these thoughts,
and they, in turn,
posted their happy
noticings.

So, I've decided to bring
Ready? GO!
to my blog,
(for those who aren't
on Facebook),
and will post my blog on
Facebook,
(for those who
had no idea I have a blog).
We can share
either location.
