Thankful.
I am thankful for all the important things in life: family, friends, health, home.
But there are lots of other–much less important–things I’m grateful for as well. Things that just, well, make me happy. These are the little things I am grateful for each and every day.
1. Yoga. Yoga always pulls me out of my funk, and makes me a lot easier to live with! My whole family is grateful for this one.
2. Caramel Walnut Brownie Luna Bars. I mean, caramel and brownie. And I can eat it for a meal?! Need I say more? (My family is grateful for this one, too. 😉 )
3. Flexibility. Not the yoga type, just the ability to see things from other perspectives.
4. Writing. It’s my joy and my career. If yoga doesn’t pull me from my funk, writing will.
5. My neighborhood. I love the peace of my neighborhood while still having the ability to walk to Starbucks from my house. ❤
6. Yes, my husband is tops of the serious, “what I’m most grateful for” category, but I’m also grateful for his flexibility and thoughtfulness, especially while I convince him the girls need a puppy. 🙂
7. Puppies and kittens.
8. Being a lousy cook. Yup, I’m thankful I don’t know a “roux” from a “rub.” Why? Because it brings my family together to help rescue me in the kitchen. And we have a great time cooking together.
9. Tea with honey. Remember the movie, The Shipping News? I believe it was Judi Dench’s character that would always say (I paraphrase), “Tea will get you through it.”
10. Coffee. Now that I’m caffeine-free it’s different, but it’s the lure of the coffee shop that gets me every time.
11. Artists. All kinds: painters, sculptors, writers, dancers, singers…
12. Fast internet connections (and the internet itself).
13. Love. (Okay, this belongs in the "important" list as well.)
And I am always, always, grateful for my friends and readers!
Happy Thanksgiving to those celebrating! And a happy day to all!
What are you grateful for? Big or small! Leave a note and let us know!!
