13 things to love lately


  1. My boy & his dad sharing hot chocolate and manly man time at the Boy Scout tree lot.
  2. My girl watching Landon Pigg's darling Falling In Love At A Coffeeshop video and swooning with me. Twice.



  3. My best friends scrambling to adjust their schedules so they could come with me to my follow-up exam this week.
  4. Stumptown coffee & pastries with my best friends after the All Clear appointment.
  5. Students who say things like "You're really funny, Mrs. S" and "I LOVE having these discussions in class, thank you!" I'm serious - teenagers occasionally say this kind of stuff. And mean it.
  6. Um. Landon Pigg again. He's just so precious. (And we've spoken! Real sentences! In person, with each other! I was not arrested right after, either)

  7. Terminator Salvation - surly but sexy Christian Bale, Sam Worthington as a smoldering hot redeemed convict, cute little Anton Yelchin, and a PG-13 rating so I can show it in my Sci Fi class.
  8. My man ordering yet more of my favorite black tea for home & classroom. Honestly, I should never be tired.
  9. Knee-high socks! Truly. I wear them everyday.
  10. Immaculate Baking's cranberry-orange scones ON SALE! They are like warm heaven in my mouth.
  11. Christmas cards & pictures arriving.
  12. Surprise treats in my mailbox from the Very Crafty, Very Generous Very Mary and the so lovely & thoughtful & together Texan Mama. (Thank you again, ladies!)
  13. My Lovey Dovey iPod playlist. Which includes, of course, you know who.

It's beginning to look a lot like
