I'm off work today.
My baby brother, Johnny, is here for Thanksgiving, and on Thursday he's going to remodel my bathroom. It's so horrifying, I don't even want you to see a picture of it. Oh, wait. I don't know how to download a photo yet. Well, I'll learn how and at least show you the "after."
As a treat, we stopped by Starbucks for a fancy holiday coffee. I got a small (you can tell I'm not a Starbuckian since I didn't call it vente or tall or whatever the heck it's called) Caramel Brulee Latte. Yum! Johnny wanted a fancy coffee and a sugar cookie. As I got ready to pay for his goodies, he said, "You don't have to do that."
Cathy: You're remodeling my bathroom for nothing.
Johnny: I'm your brother.
Cathy: A brother buys you a pretty sweater. He doesn't buy you a new bathroom.
Johnny: This one does.
Awwww! Isn't he wunnerful? I just love him!

After I got that white envelope from my boss, just for a nanosecond, I thought about returning the bathroom materials for a refund. But then I decided: I've been planning this for a long time; the world is going to have to catch up to my dreams.

May you stand by your dreams today.
Warmly,
Catherine
