I Love Thursdays!

We look forward to Thursdays around our house. They are full of optimism for what we're going to get done on the weekend. Auntie Amber usually comes to visit since she has Thursdays off. They mean only one more sleep till Daddy's home for a few days. And they mean good TV night....my favorites are The Office & Grey's Anatomy.

To make this Thursday extra special, I was extremely productive today: got a whole lot of laundry done...and Scarlett helped (while Ace was napping), answered a zillion emails that have been sitting in my inbox, picked up a movie from Blockbuster to watch on the weekend (click for a coupon), made a new chicken casserole that our family enjoyed & got a start on my fall stamp-class schedule (should be out tomorrow). It was a good day as far as I'm concerned!
