What did you do today that made you smile?

Made dessert for Karma to take to Dancer's place tonight. Strawberry/blueberry tart with chocolate drizzle and pastry cream.

I took the kids to the beach for the first time this year. It's gorgeous out today which is surprising because up until yesterday is was cool and rainy. Summer seems to have come out of nowhere!

Like.. I gotta agree :D Weather couldn't be better. Warm. sunny.. beaches are full, trails are active.. :)

I had a shit eating grin from morning onwards. A great ride with my cousin and friend. He brought up pork ribs, which I dry rubbed, slow cooked and then put with peaches and cream corn on the cob, zucchini, roast mushrooms and broccoli.... now I am going to explode and then sleep.. haha

Now.. I am exhausted.. absolutely beat up.. and my ass is still killing me. Damn saddles.. :D:D
 
Gorgeous Sunday. Amazing country where winter has people still out in shorts and tee-shirts. Sailed up the Brisbane river on a City Cat. Had a big Latte, then walked and rode the city cycles back down the river. We felt blessed that we live in such a beautiful city and I felt like I've come a long way. Z leaves on Wednesday to spend a few days with J and then his kids. I'm feeling remarkable calm about it :)
 
I told my love I wouldn't be able to pick him up at the airport when he arrives, as I would be so dizzy with love, lust and excitement...that I wouldn't be able to drive.

We thought we'd have to give the cab driver a good tip :)
 
I took my wife for a nostalgic ride in our 67 mustang. MAN....What a blast from the past!
 
Made dinner for Karma. I love greeting him after a campout with a yummy dinner. And then I showed him the new dresses I bought and I thought his eyes were gonna pop out of his head, and then he gave me the recap of his weekend...all smiles!!!

Awwwwww, so cute!

Couple of things for me:
Joined a fitness challenge with coworker and some other friends, and did the intro and workout. Yea me! :)
For laughs I spoke to one of my best friends in life today, and planned a night out with her! I think we are making this a monthly get together! We both need it!:)
 
I took my 67 Mustang for a drive today...12 mile round trip drive. That's the furthest it's been driven in one shot in almost a year.

My wife would say that, but I'm a darn good cook. ;-)

What did I do today? I made sure my work approved my vacation. First one in three years.
 
What did I do today that made me smile?

Recent days, to my amazement, I seem to be smiling, if only a half-smile, most all of the time. It's not because of anything I've done, unless it is just to say, silently, Yes! Yes to love, in whatever form it finds me.

I smile bigger when I realize what a gift life, the universe, the great spirit, or whatever,
has conspired to give me in my new, special friend. And when I notice, really notice, that the physical distance isn't really a problem. Because I choose not to grasp or cling to "How Things Should Or Need To Be," there is only delight remaining. If I should get knotted up or worried about any of it, it's a perfect opportunity to love both myself and her (and him, my boyfriend of many years) by gently inquiring "Why? What, Dear James, has you tight and fearful?" I can sit or walk or wash dishes and/or listen to music ... or dance the question. So all of it is perfect, absolutely perfect, and however it all turns out is perfect. So I smile. I practice metta, and metta gently practices me. So I smile a lot.

Surely this unfolding will also affect things with my long-time parner (he) for the better. Growing love is growing love.

Was FINALY able to go outside since the heat and humidity dropped. Went to fighter practice with Karma. Sitting outside and watching my boy fight always brings a smile to my face.
