"Weather-wise, it's such a lovely day.."


Today is a Skittles sort of day.



**Looks outside to double check** 
Mmmhhm.

 
It's the kind of day that feels like the summer, 
smells like spring, but in actuality, is in February. ;)



The sort that makes me want to run around outside all day in barefeet.
Or simply, go and spend a delightful time on a swing under a shady tree.



It definitely is one of those that makes me want to "run and jump and butt your heads together"....
(Okay. Not quite that.)



And when you start to press your brain for what could be better about it....
you go totally blank.



Then, the first butterfly of the season flitters by, showing off it's beautiful 
sunshiney color to all.



It makes me want to have my camera by my side and snap anything that pleases my eye.

 

It's the kind of day that makes me want to spontaneously burst out with a:

SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDOCIOUS!



Or to go around in my favorite outfit, regardless of the holes in the knees, stains, etc.



Today is the sort of day where, every single place I look, I feel the smile of my Papa all over this wonderful life.



Thank you Lord for every single reminder of Your unending, 
unconditional, unexplainable love for me.

things to make you feel brilliant



Chik-fil-A lemonade...it's impossible to feel dull while drinking it.


Laughing at one of Shakespeare's jokes. "I got it! I got it! Sarah--I got it! Haha!"


Knowing what thorough-bass means. (Go Wikipedia! ;)


Knowing the difference (if there is one) between "mizzle", "drizzle", and "mist"


Having checked the weather before anyone else and therefore being able to say, lackadaisically, "Oh..it'll be raining by 3:00 this afternoon."


Being the first of your friends to discover a new musical artist and bring him/her into the adoration of your circles. ;)


Saying "Les Mis." It makes you sound "in" when in reality you just say it because you haven't the foggiest idea what to do with the remaining 7 letters.


Being able to say that you've memorized the principle parts of the 2nd conjugation in Latin....[Which Sarah has managed]


Speaking about authors by their last names: Austen, Dickens, Alcott, etc. Gives you rather a sorority-feel. [All those college peeps in the old days used surnames exclusively.]


Watching period-dramas and having attained such a  lofty height of costume-recognition  that you know which costumes were recycled where.


Watching the BBC Sherlock series... or does that make you feel duller?


...Writing a post on things that make you feel brilliant? ;)
