1. my mom is here
in high school i had friends that really did not like their moms. even still i know people who wouldn't really care if their mom came to visit. i am whatever is the opposite of that. i love my mom more than i love most anyone, ever. when she comes to town all i want to do is hang ten with her. i think it comes from the year after my dad died. it was her and i, we relied on each other for almost everything. and spent a lot of time together, mostly in her bed but sometimes we took trips or went to get froyo. now i just love her to pieces and never want her to leave this little town of provo.
2. i just found an e-mial my dad sent me on a sunday night at 8 PM three years ago entitled "Lyrics to Tie me Kangaroo Down"
sometimes i find little reminders like this of what a sweetheart my dad is. and when i say sweetheart really i just mean dork. i remember the night he sent it to me; him and i had been having a sing-a-long of sorts as we often did. i picked the songs, he played the guitar and we both sang along. this particular night we were singing Tie Me Kangaroo Down and i got bored after the first two versus but true to form dad kept on singing...all eight versus! he sent me the lyrics so i could know them for the nest time we sang the song, and now i know them all.
3. its valentines day!
typically single people hate valentines day, but i am so happy being single that i just dont even care! i am happy for people that are happy and know that one day i will be just as happy. present nikka is happy for future nikka and that is just fine by me.
4. no school on monday
three day weekend, nuff said.
5. my little ca(skateboard)r got a new clutch
nothing feels better under my left foot than four inch heels or a new clutch. so i am a pretty happy girl.
overall life is good. as always, but today i am especially grateful for my blessings and especially my family.
so happy thursday to you
xoxo
