this week was good because of...

...going to the season's home opener football game with Wildcat Guy, his family and a colleague.

...the generosity and welcoming spirit that my future in-laws have.

...funky tan lines from my super-cute, very-comfortable gladiator sandals.

...a gorgeous sunny day for football.

...a beautiful bouquet of creamy gerbera daisies and other flowers from my love.

...the card he brought me on Wednesday.

...making myself rest when I came down with a cold.

...remembering 9/11 in a personal, private way.

...avoiding as much as possible the commercialism that seems to have been swirling around this year's observance.

...delightful packaging for a much-anticipated photo mural.

...working through misunderstandings with a colleague.

...adapting a recipe for ginger-marinated pork roast into a yummy pork chop dinner.

...lots of cooking and smart eating this week.

...an enjoyable movie that I got to watch while snuggled up with Wildcat Guy.

...a lovely card design by one of my favorite inspiring artists.

...feeling good about successfully chairing my first Board of Directors meeting.

What made your week good?
