My post is a little late, delayed because of my preoccupation with the oh-so-exciting happening that’s right up at the top of today’s gratitude list: an afternoon nap with one of the skylights open – yes! – to fresh, warm air and birdsong. Tease or not, I am thoroughly enjoying this beautiful, hopeful taste of spring.
In no particular order, here is my own gratitude list for this moment in time. I hope that after reading it you’ll go on to write and share your own!
- Successfully accomplishing something (in this case, coordinating a book club discussion) that at one time absolutely terrified me.
- Realizing just how fortunate I am to be a part of not one but TWO book clubs, both populated by fabulous people.
- Getting to experience The Tenors live in concert, thanks to a free ticket from a connected (and generous!) friend.
- Beautiful, powerful music that moves your emotions.
- Feeling a whole lot better than I have in more than a month! Keeping my fingers crossed, but apart from a tiny (and very sporadic) cough, my cold seems to be moving on.
- Thoughtful discussions about interesting things.
- Friendship and all it brings, including support, encouragement, and sincere compliments.
- Things going very smoothly at work during a crazy, busy time of year.
- Being inspired to create.
Now it’s your turn!

Grateful for spring weather (supposed to go up into the 50’s tomorrow). Grateful for some family that was able to stop by to help celebrate my son’s upcoming birthday. Grateful that my husband’s 103 year old aunt is still with us, as we plan how we can try to get her transported to enjoy Easter with other family members.

I was awaiting your blog post on this Laurel as I was close to posting earlier today but then had other commitments to attend to. I envy your afternoon nap as I had SO wanted and felt like I needed one! How do you manage with a skylight though in terms of napping that is? 😉 Book, music, and friends – well, aren’t they all a form of friendship?! 😉 <3
