Like, the super tiny things that we normally take for granted.
Last night, I had some great tacos. Authentic tacos. Rice, beans, chips, salsa…the whole shabang. It was amazing. Definitely fit the craving of tacos that I wanted. Taco Bell has nothing on those. And better yet, it was within walking distance. So I got a bit of that fresh, crisp, fall air. And on my way there, I saw something that just made me smile! Some boys were playing soccer and their ball rolled into the street. A police car was at the corner and pulled into the street to stop traffic so the boys could go get their ball. It wasn't much, but they had watched a few cars already nearly hit it. Again, it's the small things.
Then, when I got home, I had wanted to just sit and watch tv, but instead, I rearranged my room. It's something I'd been wanting to do and I'm so glad I did it. It's one less thing that I have to do today and tomorrow. More time to watch Grey's Anatomy and blog.
I went to bed last night full of good food and good humanity.
This morning, I woke up and worked out. A good workout. Arms, abs, legs…the whole shabang. A feel so good, take your time, gym to myself workout. Definitely the workout I wanted. Then, I went to Trader Joe's and basic white girl'd the shit out of my pantry. Pumpkin Spice Chai and dark chocolate coconut covered almonds. I got some other things, too, like vegetables and milk. I enjoy grocery shopping. It's like a puzzle — which items can I get to make a new concoction? What are other people getting? What do people like?
Then, after all that goodness, I came home and made the one thing I'd eat anytime, any day: Biscuits and gravy!! It was so good. Filling and fun to make.
Now it's time to get off the internet, start the dishes and finish cleaning the house. More things that I love to do. Life might be a little complicated right now, but when I focus on the little things in life, it really is a good life.
