What makes me happy

It really is the little things that make you happy. Like getting an insurance check for all the stolen stuff that is more than twice what you anticipated (rendering it possible to finally be able to purchase a proper dining table and chairs...yes, hippies DO like to have tables and chairs, people!). Or shopping about in Target over the weekend to find perfectly acceptable knock-off Robeez shoes for under $15.00! And while shopping in Target with a less-than-happy babe, meet up with a family of 4 boys who take the fussy babe under their wing and play peek-a-boo with her (even the eldest, pre-teen!!) to make her happy! And to find out those great boys are not only super sweet, but are also homeschooled (something in our future)! Oh, did I mention that I'm in COLUMBIA, SC and actually met up with a random homeschooled family that didn't try to push a religion on me?! I was extatic! Back to the happy list...to be able to purchase not one, but 3 new steel doors for the recent burgled home for under the price of one? AND, finally...to have a hubby that LIKES the idea of having a bright, happy RED door as our front door (see, mom, he DOES have penache!). All in all, a much better, if wetter, weekend was had than week.
