So Very Happy.



















I was VERY grumpy this morning (see the earlier post) and took that grumpy to work. Tried to discuss the whole shrinkage issue and finally decided to drop it as I wasn't going to "win".....in other words I was going to be wrong no matter what...I got over it, but I was ready to come home and there I found my mom and hubs and that made me very happy.

I just returned from a walk with my hubs and dogs and that too made me very happy.

We had leftovers, so not making dinner and the low number of dishes to wash made me happy.

I got to do some hand-piecing and that made me happy.

I don't have to go to work tomorrow and that makes me very happy.

I get to work in my garden tomorrow and that makes me happy.

Sooooo much to be grateful for.....

Recycling


















I had this ugly, dowdy long denim skirt leftover from my schoolteacher days. It was UGLY.....so, I cut it off and added this cute little owl. I might actually wear it now. I just realized he doesn't have a beak. POO!

THANKFUL THURSDAY: I'm so grateful to have the unconditional love of two fabulous bubbies (dogs).

Sunday Gratitude

Waiting for the sun to burn off the fog and the temperature to go up, I decided to doodle a gratitude page. I fashioned it after Violette's. http://http://www.violettesfolkart.com/blog.html
While it is only 41 degrees right now the forecast is for upper 60s and the sun just peeked out about half an hour ago. Sunshine made the #1 spot on my list of things for which I am grateful. Sunshine, Chai tea, birdsong, dogs, and family.
I try to remind myself to be grateful for the little things. Cold or not, I'm heading outside to feel the sun on my face.
