simple pleasures

I have a big time exam tomorrow and am really worried about passing. This going back to school stuff is not for the faint of heart or the feeble minded (I am beginning to believe that I am both those things). Sometimes late in the night I can see my crazy boss saying "see I told you we should not have sent her". If I failed now, what the heck would we do? It doesn't help that Mike is having a problem finding library jobs in this town or that C misses his grandparents and cousins.

So this is a quick note to say that some times it is the little things that give a perk to the day. And for me it is the sight of a basket filled with toilet paper. It says loudly that "we will not run out". The days may be filled with all sorts of weather, arguments, exams, missed deadlines, unpaid bills, noisy mufflers, and sleepless nights but when the poop hits the fan (metaphorically and literally) we are ready!
