gratitude!

say what? it's friday already?!  well, how about that...


here's what i'm thankful for this week {which flew by way too fast}:
* kitties.
* successfully applying to a ton of jobs {18 to be exact}.
* seeing our cabana being built right before my eyes {thanks to the mister}.
* randomly finding a photo of a grad school classmate in athleta magazine 
{this has yet to be verified, but i'm 98% sure it's her}.
* discovering new amazing music.
* getting some fun mail {more on that later}.
* making good progress on my writing.
* fruit smoothies.
* seeing local natives at disney concert hall with the LA phil {amazing!!}.
* seeing three great films - the social network, never let me go, and it's kind of a funny story 
{i absolutely adored it's kind of a funny story! if only psych wards were really that easy.}
* oat pancakes with wildflower honey from northern california. 
* my favorite new exercise - dancing with wild abandon.

    That's a pretty impressive list! I wasn't sure if I was going to like It's Kind of a Funny Story, but now maybe I'll check it out!

    Love that you guys are building a cabana! Pictures?

    I love your new favorite exercise! I've been doing a small exercise class that does dance moves each week. It's surprising what a workout in can be.

    Let us know if it was your grad school friend in the photo! Glad to see so many things you're thankful for.

    yay for fun mail! (can't wait to hear about it) and movie watching-- my favorite way to spend a free evening with myself lol i still have to see "the social network" but i saw "never let me go" and think carey muligan is just amazing. such a sad/weird movie that makes you think a bit.

    congrats to your classmate (if it is her, though 98% is a good percentage lol!) and do tell about the music you've discovered!!!

    oh and good luck on the job search! don't i know all about that...

    i'm thankful for coffee in the morning, reconnecting with old friends, being on a creative kick lately, and the sweet things that are already showing up in my mailbox for my birthday on Monday. :)

    xoxo
