Day 66: Sunny side ice

Day 66: Ice and sun

Today I am thankful for the sun. We woke up this morning to snow, ice and huge puddles (flooding) everwhere around. As I went around town running errands, the grey sky gave way to a bright and cheery sun, making all the snow and ice postively glisten.

Today is my day off, so I have time. I stopped and played with my phone camera, I played with my "Hiptastic" app, and my Instagram app. I played with reflections, and laughed at myself in hat and giant goofy sunglasses... maybe I'll post that tomorrow. But it is amazing just how heartening the sun beaming down and lighting up the day is. I am thankful to have had the chance to play with the sun and it's glorious light for a little bit. Yay sun!

Day 64: cleaning up

Day 64: cleaning???

Yup. Cleaning.

Today I am grateful for picking up pieces, putting things where they belong, and doing some light dusting and sweeping. It feels good to have a clean floor to walk across, to feel like our home is open and welcome, ready to greet us and all our friends or fammily who may join us here. I am happy to have the kids clothes ready for them, and my kitchen ready for the next meal. I am thankful to have a place for our family, the art we create, the toys we play with and even more importantly, the space where we can live, love and be together. Having a few hours of picking up and doing light cleaning helps me to remember how blessed we are. So for today, I am thankful for cleaning.

Day 63: just because

Day 63: Just because...

I fell out of the habit. I didn't have a photo, so I put it off.

I'm back. I am grateful today for friends who notice the importance of taking care of each other. I'm grateful for the internet, and being able to easily find renewing, inspiring sites that help me reintention (made up word of the day) my day and purpose. I am grateful for the knowledge that being grateful makes me more grateful, which makes me more appreciative, which brings more of everything right into my path.

Today, I am grateful for the reminders the universe has sent to me to be grateful!
