Life is Good

I don't have too much to say but there are a few things on my mind.

1) I love the "good old" music.  I've recently pulled out some of my favorite stuff that I've neglected for a little while.  Bon Jovi, Billy Joel, Chicago, Neil Diamond.  I love it all.  I've been groovin' to it for the past couple of weeks and I am in love.  Again.

2) I love Spring.  I don't particulary care for random snow storms and rain that comes down in buckets, but I like the part of Spring when the sun actually shines after these long months of gloominess.  I love when the flowers are popping out and the air is warm and just a little chilly.  Mmmm...I love warm sunshine most of all.

3) I am so much happier at work these days.  I don't know what did it, but a couple of weeks ago I sort of decided I just couldn't work the way I have been for the last 3 years.  14 hour days, going to school at night, grading all weekend long, writing emails at 1 a.m.  None of those things were actually as productive as giving myself a chance to breathe and taking time for myself.  It has made a world of difference in my life and I'm not even sure how I got here.  But I like it.

4)  Life has a way of working out the way it is supposed to.  I'm so glad for that.

5) I have good friends, good people really, in my life. 

6) I have a really fun trip coming up that I am SO excited for!  I love having something fun to look forward to.  Traveling to new places, seeing old friends, getting some sunshine: all things I adore and cherish.

So nothing earth-shattering here.  I just wanted to let the universe (and the 3 of you who read this) know that life is good.  And I am one lucky girl because MY life is good.
