Once again, finding the joys in ordinary things is extraordinary.
Yesterday, after at least three solid months of cut-throat racquetball between myself, hubby, and son, I finally won a game! I was never within 6 points of the winner before. What a gloriously sweaty endeavor!
We came home from the gym, cleaned up, and the three of us went to see "The Rise of the Planet of the Apes". Having a son so very interested in the movies, and having grown up with the old versions, this movie intrigued all of us. It surely did not let us down. There were numerous inuendos to the older counterparts and the CGI imagery was stunning. You truly end up rooting for the apes!
After that, while waiting for dinner, Miles stood up in the middle of the living room and pointed out the window. Lo and behold a squirrel, like a zillion others, atop our fence (squirrel highway). But this one, obviously in love, was carting an hibiscus flower home to his girlfriend. The flower was easily the size of his head and the contrast of grey squirrel to bright red flower was brilliant. Too cute!
Shrimp and rice dinner by hubby's hand was an exquisite end to the evening. Laughter at silly shows on tv and joking around in the kitchen.
It is the simple things in life that truly bring such joy to my heart! Today, I wish you all some extraordinary joys in the little things!
