today

I love this time of year.
I love the weather.
I love all the beautiful colors in the trees.
I love the cold rains.
It's a great time of year!

I kinda miss my kids AND my parents today.
I texted my oldest son back and forth for a couple of minutes, and I called my mom tonight
to say hello.
It helped.

We Ping is on the kitchen floor bathing. I walked past her a few minutes ago. She rolled on her side as I walked by and wrapped her paws around my ankles. I pet her.
Mr. Bojangles is next to me on the couch. He's sleeping.
I like to roll the very tip of his tail between my forefinger and thumb. I don't know why, I just do.

My car seats are heated. It wasn't something I looked for when I bought the car. I though I'd probably never use them. But the other day after working 14 hours, and because I had menstrual cramps, my lower back was hurting. So I turned the heat on in the drivers seat. It felt like a heating pad on my back. By the time I arrived home from work, my back was feeling better. The next day I couldn't wait to leave work so I could use the heat on my back again. It feels really good.

I reached my 20 pound weight loss goal. Yay!
