It's been a good week

I think I'm overdue for a good things list:

• My niece, Chloe (see the icon!) made it safely into the world!


• I finished the first step of making truffles last night. I bought so much cream that I think I may need to make another batch, just to use it up. The best part? I only ate about the equivalent of one truffle inside piece. That stuff is like chocolate-chip cookie dough, almost impossible to stop eating, so I am truly impressed with my restraint. *g*


• I have brand-new yarn winder, so I can make balls out of hanks of wool. This means I can buy lots of really interesting yarns, since I'll actually be able to use it once I get home. *g* First up is a pair of socks (my first pair!) out of some HandMaiden hand-painted merino.


• I'm going to see Great Big Sea in concert tonight!


• The sun is shining brightly, which always helps put me in a good mood.


• My clothes are getting looser, which is the best possibly way to tell that the eating less/exercising more program may actually be working.

Yeah, life is good.
