Simple Happiness

I am sitting on my bed with the window open and don't feel at all cold. I love hearing cars driving by outside.

I feel calm.

I've had, since Saturday at 4:00 pm, more time than I've had for months. I made bread for the first time, which was a success. I was able to sit back and relax on a Sunday. I talked to my dad for a little while. I saw my brother. I watched Return to Me last night and loved it. (First time since.. a long time.. that I've watched a movie on a school night.) I am sick but feel emotionally great. I have a great new job which was, thanks to some great people, incredibly easy to get. My room is a mess, but I will have time to clean it tomorrow. (A thought I haven't been able to have for months.) I had a wonderful experience teaching anatomy this semester (as I did last semester) and am going to sorely miss my intimate, 9-person class and my incredible lab partner. I am loving my French class and finally feel like I've got a handle on it. I have incredible roommates and friends that love me. I just got off the phone with the most incredible woman in the whole world and am grateful that I not only know her, but can call her mother. And now I'm going to read the Book of Mormon and write in my journal and think. And I am going to wake up early and get some non-school things accomplished before class, things which are usually pushed aside by studying. My life will soon be in order and I will no longer be that person you just shake your head at for failing over and over again to be on top of things because bits of her mind are scatered all over the place and her plate is heaping over and spilling onto the floor. I am happy with where my life is right now and happy with where it is going. Life is great. Little things are great. Thought I'd share. Happy day to you! Bonne nuit!

You go Morgan! I love you, but I'm sad about your new job. Who am I going to change in the bathrooms with?
