Tired- in a good way

Today's Beautiful Thing is being tired. Really! I got a lot of work done today and I'm not only physically tired, but mentally tired too. It feels good, though, because I really worked hard.

Cheddar Biscuits

Today's Beautiful Thing is Cheddar Bay Biscuits from Red Lobster. We have some left over from our anniversary dinner on Sun to go with tonight's dinner. Yum!

A New Nephew

Today's Beautiful Thing is a new nephew. My sister-in-law found out she's going to have a boy. I was a little bummed at first, because I love my 1 and only niece so much and I already have 6 nephews, but I'm over it. With parents like his, he'll be just as big a joy as his sister is. Hopefully, we will be able to spend more time with him than we were able to spend with the other 2 (local) nephews when they were growing up. Can't wait to meet you, AJ.

17 Years

Today's Beautiful Thing is our 17th Anniversary. Time really does fly when you're having fun. I love you, hon.

Together

Today's Beautiful Thing is spending the day together. We took a trip to L.A. today and found an old Italian restaurant we loved. Lunch was the best! Then we went to ChinaTown and attended the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival. We had the nicest day together.

Chinese Take Out

Today's Beautiful Thing is mushroom chicken and steamed rice from our favorite little Chinese take-out place. It's a family run business, where everyone teases you and makes you feel right at home. I love supporting businesses like that. :)

Welcome to October

Today's Beautiful Thing is October. I love this month, the fall, the changing colors, and the holidays.
