What is a nice day?

Today was a nice day.  Contrails crossed the sky as jets finally left the airports they were stuck in while the Icelandic volcano dumped ash all over the dusty continent.  With all the talk of passengers stuck everywhere, I wonder what this has been like for the pilots and air hostesses? 

Home school went well, was relaxing, and the boys were fairly well behaved.  Kiry posed no serious trouble either.  Facebook provided me with a lively debate over gun control because I put a funny Eddie Izzard quote up today.  I also got in touch with three guys I knew from back my school days.  The weather was even very pleasant today!  This has been a *nice* day! 

This evening I pegged laundry on the line out back with my oldest step-son, and we talked about things that mattered to him.  The moon was out, the temperature lovely, and the sky still laced with contrails.  It was also nice.

I just finished a cup of English Tea, and am soon off to bed. 

Tomorrow the boys and Kiry and I are out to let the boys toss around an American Football in the park where there will be plenty of space to run after it.  They will stand out in the park here as I have only once seen it done American style in Worcester before.  I am glad they have not even thought of how they will stand out! 

There are probably better ways to describe the day, and the things in our lives right now. 

Nice seems such a simple description. 

But it is the simplicity that makes it nice.
