what i'm loving

I'm loving the thunderstorm we had last night. It was pretty big and had some long lightening flashes and loud thinder cracks. Too bad it brought some cooler weather with it... oh well, I guess high 60's aren't too bad.

I'm loving how well Hines Ward is doing on Dancing With The Stars! I'm also a big fan of Kirsty Alley, but Hines is my man. I mean, I wear his jersey every Sunday for about half of the year... clearly I'm voting for him to win the mirror ball!I'm loving how challenging my job is this month. I haven't been challenged intellectually in a pretty long time. Okay, so I'm only sorta loving it... I'm also sorta hating it!

I'm loving that we're BBQing turkey burgers again this week. Yum!

I'm loving that my mother-in-law flew in last night to visit us for the 1st time. She's staying for a week and I'm so happy to have her company! And yes, I'm one of those rare daughter-in-laws who actually likes their mother-in-law and who encourages my husband to call her and whatnot. Here's the deal: she created and raised my husband to be the man whom I fell in love with. Whom I am in love with. How could I not like her?

With that being said, I'm loving that I'll be out of town this weekend and Bryan and his mom will get some great quality time together, of which will include a mother/son Mother's Day brunch!


I'm loving that I'm going to NYC on Saturday and am looking forward to getting my eyes on Ground Zero now that Osama is gone -- I went to Ground Zero shortly after 9/11 and several times since, but I'm hoping to take away something different with this visit. Can't wait to feel the outward pride for America that is still flowing through everyone's veins in that great city!
Now go link up with Katie and let us know what you're loving!

    Love thunderstorms as well! I've never been to NYC but I'd love to go see Ground Zero to pay respects. I'm sure it'll bring a new light on your visit on Saturday with Osama gone.

    I haven't really thought about it, but I guess NYC does have a great vibe right now. I think it always has a great vibe :)

    ahhh you love thunderstorms? you can have ALL of the ones I am destined to see in my future. They scare the ba-jeezuses out of me!

    I love that you enjoy having your mother-in-law around! I absolutely adored my ex's mom. Well ok, I still do.

    Your job sounds amazing right now and that's super exciting! And even more exciting it is sending you to NYC at such an important and memorable time! : )
