"cool thumb" brown

if you know me you know, mornings are not my favorite time. i tend to be a bit distant/grouchy. Bill doesn't even approach me until i have had my coffee and my newspaper. he usually just gives me a silent, tender kiss goodbye as i am absorbing the two.

this morning i didn't get either... we had a realtor showing at 8:30 a.m. (uck) that means me, getting up an hour earlier than usual, vacuuming, turning on every possible light and making sure the house looks as attractive, livable and bright as humanly possible. no time for coffee or paper...

i was delighted tonight though, as i wait for Bill to arrive home late (he has a late meeting... it's okay though he is bringing baja fresh home, woo hoo, no cooking for me tonight!) i realized i still had my paper to read.

yes there was thrilling news as always.... but the best part was peanuts! Bill and I have been following it closely. there has been this sneaky, shady guy stealing everyones marbles.

charlie brown has decided to stand up to him and attempt to get the marbles back, by playing fair. Bill & I have been very concerned that it would end up like the football (which sadly, was never kicked).

instead, bravo to Charles Schultz! i LOVE charlie browns eyes in this, he is so uber cool, as he holds the bag of marbles, which he has obviously won back, fairly. way to go "cool thumb" you rock.


there ya go. peanuts made my day. i like it when simple pleasures do, it makes me smile.

and yeah... the realtors, "loved, loved, loved the house....
whatever..." (o: i can't wait till charlie gives linus his marbles back!
