Today Was a GOOD Day


Today was a good day. The stars aligned and all was right with the world. At least it was in my world.

It started earlier than usual. Old Pup got me up at 6:00 am instead of her usual 7:00(-ish). Both pups went outside then came in to an early breakfast (it was a good day for them too). Even though it rained just after I brought them inside, by 8:30 the sun was out and it was a beautiful fall Carolina morning = GOOD Day.

I had a list of things to do, and high on that list was our annual hunt for the elusive un-seasoned bread cubes I use to make our Thanksgiving dressing (No stuffing here, my forbearers were dead set against stuffing). Every year it gets harder and harder to find the darn things. What's up with that? Anyway, next came car insurance for our teen and tags for her car, both of which she was paying - SCORE! Somewhere in there I had bills to pay and a spring form pan to buy so oldest Granddaughter could have cheesecake for Thanksgiving.

We didn't get very far. Less than 3 miles from home, when I hit the stretch of road with the 55mph speed limit, it became apparent that something was wrong with the Jeepster. Try as it might it just couldn't shift into that final gear. Well crap. Carried it to Hubby, who determined that somehow the Overdrive button had gotten pushed (or un-pushed, which ever the case). Simple fix = GOOD Day.

Next came the insurance company and I've got to say it was painless. Nice Lady at the desk gave Our Youngest a great rate (did I mention she paid it herself?!) and we got a ginormous break because she is no longer on our policy = GOOD Day.

Tags were a breeze and there was NO LINE = GOOD Day.

Somewhere along the way, I received ABSOLUTELY THE MOST FANTASTIC NEWS EVER about a friend = GOOD Day.

Then I got to shop in my Most Happiest Place That Was Ever Created, Ross Dress For Less, where I not only found an awesome set of spring form pans, I was able to get a really cute sweater and top in my size = GOOD Day.

We ended our trip at Walmart. You know, I actually really like Walmart. Especially because they had my un-seasoned bread cubes = GOOD Day.

They also had a giant frozen turkey that called my name. I only hope I can find a pan big enough to roast the thing in.

GOOD DAY!
