ranty

yes, today was a ranty, out of character day for me.  however, because i can't be ranty here, i will focus on the happy (there was a lot of it today, even if it didn't quite break my mood). 

** pumpkin curry w/ friends.  YUMMY & nice to visit!  i don't get to see anna very much as it is, and now she'll be moving down south to her dream state next month!  happy for her, but will miss the lunches for sure.  it was nice having her back in town for awhile.  : ) 

** celebrity apprentice and army wives.  both excellent episodes tonight!  i know i don't know him, but bret michaels is such an awesome guy on this show.  i really hope he's doing okay & recovering from his medical issues!! 

** chatting w/ april.  notes from summer.  comments from friends.  i am so blessed, and so grateful! 

** pandora radio.  seriously love it!  phil collins, genesis, peter gabriel, U2, peter cetera, journey, yanni... they know what i like & they play a lot of it on my phil collins channel!  : ) 

** photos of alaska.  i entered a landscape photo contest tonight & used a picture of mendenhal glacier.  i look at my pictures from that time and i remember how bittersweet the trip was.  awesome to spend time w/ my cousin & aunts, and remembering daddy & sad that i wouldn't get to share my pictures w/ him.  but happy because i knew he could see them at any time!  and remembering the little things of the trip, like the amazing salmon.  now i'm craving salmon.  ; ) 

thank you, Lord for giving me the good things to remember and cling to, even as i struggle against this depression or whatever it is that tries to drag me down.  just gotta take it one day at a time, right?!

i hope your monday was less angsty!  : )
