1. Yoga is now offered 7 times a week at my gym and 5 of those classes are at times that are occassionally available to me, which means I can make it at least twice a week. This is an improvement over the 1 class that was available to me previously, which was at a really inconvenient time. A good thing because yoga time is happy time.
2. I was all excited to make this recipe for butternut squash, pears, and fresh ginger sauteed in a touch of butter with a bit of s & p. Then, when I got ready to actually make it, I realized I had acorn squash (not to be confused with butternut squash) and the pears were mushy. I made it anyway and lets just say: it put the squash in squash. It is a big bowl of mush. This is a good thing because it's a big bowl of really delicious mush.
3. I had a conference call today with my Thailand team, which was encouraging. I had been kind of stressed about all the different requirements, but I'm feeling better about them now. We all had looked into various things and could share our findings with one another. It's a good thing because now I know where to get insurance to cover repatriation of remains. (Encouraging, huh?)
4. Today is October 17th - a date that is forever etched in my mind from my first year of living in Idaho because the first snow of the season came on October 17th and to a little girl from east Texas, that was beyond bizarre. It was 90 degrees here today. It's a good thing I have an air conditioner.
5. I'm always glad when I make myself try to think of good things in my life, simple though they may be, and even though I'm writing this as the fifth thing on my list just so I'll have a fifth thing, remembering simple pleasures is undeniably a good thing.
