Many Thanks!
Hi there,
THANK YOU for the visit. Coffee, tea, or Snuggie? Still pretty dang cold up here in Toronto. This week Wiarton Willie, that cute ground hog, saw his shadow so six more weeks of the chilly weather. Of course there would be still a month and a half of winter without the shadow-loving animal but I digress.... *giggles*
We have chatted about having an attitude of gratitude before but I need a refresher blog. Usually I am sooo thankful for all the BIG parts of my life but sometimes less mindful of the smaller but equally important areas. Like if I can get that Timmy's extra large coffee with double milk on a Monday morning (oh yes!), that tissues are on sale when my allergies kick in, and that I find that $10 bill in the back pocket of my jeans the day BEFORE payday (thank you kind Universe!).
I am thankful that my two kitties are healthy and happy and a little bit crazy (you don't add Siamese cats to your life without enjoying this energy, or you're, well, you know...)
So grateful that I have a great job and live in a world-class city in Canada. Top-notch health care and benefits. All good.
My family and friends are amazing and so supportive of my life. My artsy pals encourage me to create beauty with my paintings and photography and I do the same with their artistic passions. A really lovely inner circle.
I'm thankful that in my 49th year, I am finally "getting what its all about" in life.
I thank APPLE and iTunes each and every day for the wonder of the iPod Classic. Mercy! Music is everything to me.
Here's your homework for today - take a piece of paper (yes p*a*p*e*r) and a pen or pencil (no computers - this is a touchy-feely exercise) and write down 25 things that you are grateful for this week. Could be that your favourite shampoo was on sale, that your doctor gave you a clean bill of health, or that you found your perfect part-time job after months of searching the newspapers. This is for your eyes only and can include anything that YOU appreciate.
Then tell me about your Friday. I gotta feeling....
Thank you!
Linda
