good things (NOT the Martha Stewart edition)

Friday night my ears popped and I could hear clearly for the first time in over a week. The sounds! The clarity! Heaven!

Speaking of hearing--this story about Lila, Jami Nato's daughter, just made me all weepy with joy.

Saturday I stood outside Habitat ReStore with Mr. G trying to figure out how to manage 2 heavy boxes of wood scraps and my bag across the parking lot. It would take two trips and I'd resigned myself to that fact when the tall red-haired man behind me offered to carry one for me. "I'm waiting for someone right now anyway. It's no problem." The kindness of strangers is one of life's sweetest surprises. We made it to the Momvan in one trip and I felt so grateful.

Finding a Target gift card buried in a pile of stuff. Handing it to the cashier and discovering it's worth $20!

Watching Megamind with Team Testosterone. Very funny.

Even funnier? Playing Charades. Especially when one of the players is six years old.

Going to church as a family and coming home to cook bacon, eggs and English Muffins for breakfast afterwards--buttery, savory, greasy deliciousness.

Temps reaching the 40s--with a forecast of 50s by the end of the week. I'll open windows! Hang out bedding! Start running again!

Sleeping though the night without coughing. Waking up to nary a rumble in my chest--just the clear, steady sound of healthy breathing.

Spill it, reader. Good things.
