Good Morning! Wednesday April 28, 2010

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. My yard is full of bright sunlight; and now that there are leaves on the pecan tree, I get moving and dancing light coming through the window. Today will be upper 60s, and breezy, a lovely spring day.
Last night I watched AI ... have not changed my mind about who I like; to me, "weak link" was Lee. But, I'm more often wrong than right! LOL! We'll find out tonight. I didn't assemble the other cabinet, but got a lot of things put away in what's been done already. I think finding homes for all the "little" things will work out; I have a few larger items that won't fit in cabinets to figure out. I'll get there soon I thnk. I'm hoping tonight to get the last cabinet assembled. Maybe. :)

Today is "Pink Moon" ... "Workers Memorial Day" ... "National Day of Mourning (Canada)".

Quotes of the Day:
"Happiness is that state of consciousness which proceeds from the achievement of one's values."
-- Ayn Rand

"A successful individual typically sets his next goal somewhat but not too much above his last achievement. In this way he steadily raises his level of aspiration."
-- Kurt Lewin
