You know those times when you see a soda sitting there and you say to yourself "Hey, I've never had that kind of soda before!" and you try it and it's delicious and you fall in love with it?

November 18, 2012: Growing Up

November 16, 2012: Good Customers

The ones that leave before closing time, don't leave a huge mess, and ask for help when they need it, rather than complaining because they can't figure something out on their own. The ones who don't get mad when you don't carry an item they're looking for. The ones that smile back at you, and allow the magic of childhood to once again come into their life.

November 10, 2012: My November Miracle

I'm in a band. Don't bother asking me what band, because we don't have a name yet, and we just started.


BUT

Today, during our first practice, we suddenly came across hundreds of dollars in the form of music equipment that we were free to use and keep.

It was a wonderful thing.

I'm grateful for it.

November 11, 2012: Over-sized sweaters

I'm grateful for friends who lend me their sweaters that turn out to be much to large for my small body. But snuggled up in them in my bed at night just feels like happy and home :)
