A Few of My Favorite Things

A happy post for today.

This morning I woke up with Eddie Bear sleeping next to me. Can I just say that is the best thing! I watched him sleep for a while (if I get up, he wakes up) and I listened to the birds outside.

There is something so peaceful about birds singing. When we still had our house I would open all the windows and just listen to the birds chirping in the middle of the day. Their sweet melodies was one of the first things I noticed as missing when we arrived in Florida.

Now granted, in our house, we were a little off the beaten path, so birds were not an oddity. In fact, many people I know who live in that area complain about the birds waking them up early. I have to chuckle at that. I guess I am a heavy sleeper because the birds never woke me.

Between watching Eddie sleep, sleeping in on a Saturday and listening to the birds, today started off quite nicely. The only way to top off a start like that is to finish the day with some yummy orange chicken, beef and broccoli and some lo mein noodles.

Pure bliss.
