it's the little things

Yesterday started out on the wrong foot. I overslept. My hair decided it hated absolutely everything about me, and a meeting was rescheduled at the very last minute. As in, I'm-in-the-lobby last minute.

But then I had lunch with my friend and my daughter. And we laughed the whole time. And then I went to Whole Foods and my absolute favorite yogurt was on sale.

And so were a gorgeous bunch of purple hyacinths.

And I came home and had my favorite salad for dinner. Oh, and I opened my email to two new acceptance letters from literary journals. 

And I'm sitting here, eating a bananas foster yogurt and thinking I came out ahead, all things considered.
