    Yesterday was a day of greats: great family, great friends, great movie, and great day all around.  It will be a little harder to get some of my tasks marked off this week with the Stage Kids Lion King play in full swing - lots to do for this busy theater family - but I will try my best.

    Written in my journal:  Finding something to be thankful for can be trying at times.  But today, I had the privilege of meeting new people, and I am thankful to have had the pleasure to talk with, laugh with, and learn from them.  I am thankful for all the endless loves from my daughter - nothing cheers me up more than the look on her face when she says, "I love you."  Lastly, even though some might see the rain as a terrible weather occurrence, I see it as a joy.  It brings joy to me for the memories that rush back of my hometown.  Oh!  And the smell, who cannot enjoy the smell of fresh rain?  Pure bliss!

    One hike this morning to beat the rain storms.  Not a bad day of hiking with some amazing people.
