yesterday's funk


I was definitely not myself. Maybe it was a combination of things; like finding out Brenner's Great Uncle Lynn died the exact time I was awake and thinking about him, or the gloomy weather, or an unpleasant blast from my past episode. Whichever, I'm just glad yesterday has come and gone. 


Today is a much better day. We received word today that our offer on the house we absolutely love was accepted. Yay. Now to sell Adam's house...so if anyone reading is interested in property investing, let us know. Tonight after work Adam and I are driving to Bend to get a yummy bite to eat and shop for a frame for our most awesome 16x20 photo of us that Jen shot and gave us at our engagement party.


Tootles Noodles!

WHAT IS SUCCESS?

To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty;
To find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived;
This is to have succeeded.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson
