Refreshing


Today's Beautiful Thing is fresh fruit waters from Taco Mesa Restaurant. I am spoiled to be able to have free refills of my favorite--watermelon water--at Taco Mesa because most places don't do that. It was hot tonight and the watermelon water was a delicious compliment to my spicy blackened chicken tacos. Mmmm... Bonus Beautiful Thing: Hubby ordered horchata, but decided he wanted mixed fruit water for a refill, and they let you do that. Why not try 'em all, right? ;)

Easy Does It!


Today's Beautiful Thing is a simple meal of pot roast, steamed veggies, corn-on-the-cob & tortillas. I bought the precooked pot roast in gravy for nights like tonight when one of us has an appointment and dinner needs to be ready in a hurry.
Bonus Beautiful Thing: Not being a fan of beef, I didn't expect to like it. But it was actually quite tasty.

Helpful


Today's Beautiful Thing is getting caught up on my work and helping others with theirs. I feel like I've finally taken control of my job and I like to lend a hand when I can. :)

Ahhhh!


Today's Beautiful Thing is the refreshing feeling I get after I wash my face. I just washed off that thick layer of 15 hour old make up with some great cleanser and my face feels all tingly and cool. Love it.

Getting Better


Today's Beautiful Thing is my mom. The doctor says her eyesight is getting better. Thank God. Thanks to everyone for the hugs, prayers, good vibes, white light, well wishes--all of it. I love you, my friends.
(These scenic photos from the last few days are sample photos on the hubby's computer. Nice, huh?)

Glad


Today's Beautiful Thing is getting a nice note from Michele saying she liked the scene I wrote. It's very rough, but I needed to share it anyway. I'm so fortunate to have someone who gets me--even when I am all rough around the edges. :)

Not one, but Two!


Today's Beautiful Thing is having two computers. Hubby and I are sharing right now, but I feel very fortunate that we still have a computer we can use when some people don't even have one. We are very lucky.
