Super green

If you were a fan of the move The Fifth Element, and you asked me about my day, you might say "Green?" and I'd have to respond with the obligatory "Super Green".

Not because it was all that great a day, at work for example, but it wasn't too bad really, so that's always good, right? Non-bad days are good ones?

But it was a FANTASTIC weather day. Considering that it's mid-March and many parts of the country, such as Philly, have snow on the ground, the fact that it was 82 in OKC today was way cool. We were only expecting 72, but Mr. Sunshine surprised us, perhaps appropriately, with a little pot of sunny-gold on this day of leprechauns.

I left work early today (also a good thing) to meet my ex-mother-in-law and get my children back (yet another good thing). I had the sun-roof and windows open and the music turned way up. All good things to boot.

I took the kids to get some dinner and some ice cream. Afterwards we stopped at a park for awhile so they could burn off some of that sugar. And on the way home we stopped at their mother's to pickup the rest of their stuff.

I'm taking the day off tomorrow so I can take the kids somewhere and spend at least one day with them during their spring break. We may go to the zoo or another similarly swell activity that kids enjoy. And we're going to prep our bicycles for the weekend (pump up tires, etc), given that it is supposed to be nice for the foreseeable week. I see a bike trail in our immediate future.
