A Perfect Day

I'm down in Phoenix this week enjoying helping Tim grow his business, taking in some public speakers, working on improving my own business social media, spending time with friends, and getting some time here and there to just relax with Tim, uninterrupted.

When people asked me over the years, "What's your perfect day?" I would talk about being on a family trip or cruise, the bills are paid, maybe we're doing something new with those we love, but you know what? You can learn to be just as content where you're at today.

Yesterday was pretty close to A Perfect Day. I'm in the valley, where lately, I've figured out is more my home than the mountains, although I really enjoy some aspects of it - especially in the summer. I also realized how much I miss our old church, the friends there, and fulfilling my purpose helping women through issues from a biblical perspective. I had a great dinner with friends we used to meet with regularly. We did life deeply together and grew together back then. I even got to sit through a whole movie with Tim without phones ringing, and people walking in to interrupt us.

It was a perfect day - we aren't anywhere exotic, our savings definitely isn't where we'd like it to be, we weren't experiencing a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, but it was perfect. Simple. Warm. Heart-filling. Joyful. Peaceful.

What more could I expect than that?
