balm

spending time at barnes and noble with jonny, a big pile of books, and two yummy drinks

watching pride and prejudice and giggling

watching the last hour of walk the line and smiling with delight as june finally says yes

stroking millie's forehead

packaging up a new anya tote to send across the country to a new customer

opening up some new bits for flags from speckled egg

my mother's patience as we talked today and her ideas as we brainstorm what we are going to make when she comes to visit and her encouragement to always make the things that i enjoy making instead of getting caught up in a need to "make money"

my father calling to say "how are you?" and then listening when i burst into tears

walt whitman's leaves of grass

knowing that to open one's heart is to live

knowing i will soon fall asleep with my head on my husband's chest

Raspberry (with cream) Italian Soda from B&N. And falling asleep with one's head on one's husband's chest. What could be better?
