Proof of Miracles? Well not exactly, but notably strange occurrences have been happening in my part of the world.

*My son made a special request for his lunch last night, and I remembered it this morning, before I made the lunch.

*I used a job johnny (port-a-potty see comments) at the park and it didn't smell bad, honest, and--I'm going out on a limb here--it was clean. It is entirely possible that I was the first person to use it.
This has never, ever happened before!

*I showered, dressed (not back in PJs), and did my hair before the kids came home from school. And I didn't have anywhere special to go. I might even put make-up on and put my contacts in. I'm feeling a little crazy here. Hmm, this is a good plan, it might make the kids wonder where I've been all day.

*I feed the dog and gave her water before she started jumping around, wagging her tail and staring at me. She didn't do it once. I just remembered all on my own. I even let her out this morning before she did the let-me-out-now-or-else dance.

*I bought a fern a few months ago, and it's still alive--well most of it anyway.

*It's Thursday I have only been to the store 3 times this week. Usually at this part of the week, I've been there at least seven times--I ALWAYS forget something.

*I had pictures developed the same week they were taken. It was strange to see pictures of the kids at age they are right now. Usually film developing is a walk down memory lane.

*I had to mail letters this week, and I had stamps, for every one.

*I registered a product and sent in the warranty. I don't think I have ever done that. I usually remember when the warranty has expired for two years and the product breaks. OK, so I bought it in January, but still, it counts. I did it.

*Along the same line, I bought a new printer on Saturday that entitles me to a rebate, and I sent it in already. Really in less than a week. I truly think that is a miracle. Wait a minute, backing up one. I also registered the product. Wait a minute, that's a double miracle. Call the Pope, we've got ourselves a Saint here!
