Is that a Celtic spelling for Boadicea? What an amazing story hers is!
My list (finishing deodorant? raking your bed??):
* watching the cats or the Golden retriever do something goofy
* a good cup of cappucino
* cooking something for my kids that they actually like
* watching them grow up
* having my 21 year old son actually ASK me to sit down so he can talk about something he just read in the newspaper - after living through about 4 years of nothing but grunts
* a cool sunny spring day when I can hear the birds outside after a bitter winter
* listening to Beethoven or Sibelius when I'm in that mood - Led Zep or Metallica or Neil Young or Alison Krauss, etc., when I'm in those moods
* having a client say, "I don't think I need to come back right away - I think I'm ready to try it on my own for a while"
