WOW! I'm glad you had such a fulfilling & productive day! Sometimes everything comes together just right. Sounds like you had some good helpers, too. I try to remember those kinds of days when I have a frustratingly slow day. Thanks for sharing. (What kind of coffee was that?)

I am exhausted just reading about your day! I would call that a very successful day!
