The Perfect Dayđź©·

There is no such thing as THE PERFECT DAY, but if I could pick the perfect day this is what I would consider “A Perfect Day”.

Waking up in a really good mood and wanting to get out of bed. Feeling energized, full of optimism and wanting to go for a run.

Having a desire to talk to each one of my children, hoping Daren is having a good day too and wanting to see my dad again for just a few minutes.

Singing a song to the radio and not caring if anyone listens to me. Drawing a picture that I would actually want to hang on a wall and finishing a project in my scrapbook room.

Wearing yoga clothes all day, seeing a baby girl in the grocery store and wanting to stare at her eyes for hours.

Having a teenage boy smile at me, helping an elderly man cross the street, and eating soup at Kneaders after the busy lunch hour rush.

Buying a 48 oz “just Friends” at Sodalicious, checking out a book at the library that I actually will read, and taking flowers to a neighbor.

Cleaning my closet to perfection so that Daren actually would notice.

Having one of my children call me instead of me calling them. Playing tennis, pickleball or corn hole with Daren and actually winning.

Going to the lake and actually water skiing in open water without being afraid of falling,

Wearing the perfect swimming suit, getting the perfect tan with friends who love and admire me instead of trying to compete with me.

Having Daren bring me flowers and kiss me passionately in front of one of our children or even more perfectly (his parents)

Having a neighbor call and ask me if I’m doing ok and seeing if I want to go to lunch or walk our dogs together.

Reading the scriptures and having one particular vs stand out as if God was speaking directly to me.

Going to bed at night so exhausted and happy because I actually did have “The PERFECT Day”.

I am a mother of five, a grandmother of seven, a wife ,an Aunt, and a sister. I am very selective with whom I consider my dearest friends. I own a Swim School, am a yoga enthusiast, am obsessed with fashion, buttered popcorn, hot yoga, mountain hikes, easy ski runs on sunny days and dancing every chance I get. I pretty much exist on diet coke and bagels with cream cheese. I love to be around positive, successful, confident people. I dislike tuna fish, crowded spaces, people who are rude and inconsiderate, and traffic jams. I love to ride horses, sing in the shower and laugh at silly jokes. I can run on a beach for hrs, shop until I drop and can remember Kindergarten like it was yesterday. I love romantic movies, crushed ice and I’m obsessed with brushing my teeth and taking very long hot showers. I hate when adults cone too early to functions and don’t offer to help. I absolutely despise gossip and I love listening to all kinds of music (especially Christian and Country Western). Young children make me the happiest, teenagers amaze me and help keep me young. The word old does not exist in my vocabulary. I have an enormous heart, I get my feelings hurt way too easily and I’m the first to defend the underdog. I always stand up for truth even in the most difficult of circumstances. My favorite quote is “When Words Fail, Music Speaks”. My favorite person is my significant other and my least favorite thing to do is sit at a desk and stare at a computer screen. I hope to write a book someday entitled “Windows To My Soul” . I’m working on sitting still long enough so that I can accomplish this lifetime goal. Line upon line, precept upon precept” is my mantra.
