Oh, Happy Day!

There was already a lot to be thankful for today: beautiful weather, healthy kids off to school for the day, and a tennis match that I played pain-free (for the first time in about 6 months).  But despite all of that, I let myself get irritated by some small stuff, and by lunchtime, I was in a bit of a bad mood.

Wish I could stay and chat, but I've got shoppin' to do!
