Today, I am thankful for:

My grandniece's girlfriend's big, strong, generous brother. Was at my sister's house today when I got there after work and graciously volunteered to dig the hole for the rose we were planting in memory of my niece. That yard is even worse than mine when it comes to heavy clay!

Being the boss, which means I could sneak out for an hour this gloriously warm cloudy afternoon and go look at trees at the big box stores. Think I want to plant a dwarf, fruitless plum at the curbside strip. Or maybe a dwarf, true-red Crape Myrtle. NOT PINK!!. Or...well...something topping out at about 15 feet, anyway. :-)

That the much warmer weather seems to have helped make a much better mood. Actually looking forward to getting up tomorrow and working outside, rather than thinking I just want to pull the covers over my head and not move. If I have a guardian angel out there, she smells like a Texas Spring day. ^|^
