5. Having the house to myself for a long weekend while L. was in Vegas celebrating his 50th with Barney.
6. How beautiful our lawn looks in the Spring.
7. The hydrangeas that Rich & Reg shared with me from their garden and the fact that it's possible to split them and it won't take away from their plants, but add to mine.
8. Beating my brother and his best friend at golf the other day.
9. Home cooked meals, especially when someone else does the cooking.
