Year 1, Day 52: cinnamon toast, sunshine, slippers

I appreciate:

  1. Cinnamon toast and chamomile tea. Thank you for helping me feel better!
  2. Sunshine streaming through the window, warm and friendly. Thank you for making me feel so cozy.
  3. Slippers! Better than socks, better than shoes. Maybe I’ll start wearing them all the time. That wouldn’t seem at all odd. 😛

Year 1, Day 21: Huge Theater, Uniquely Attainable, rose quartz

I appreciate:

  1. Huge Improv’s awesome Splendid Things on Saturday, what will surely be an amazing Show X tonight and 401 class starting Tuesday. Can’t wait!
  2. Uniquely Attainable which happened to be parked in my neighborhood yesterday. Scored a great find for Katie’s birthday in just a couple minutes. Coolest shopping ever!
  3. Rose quartz in all forms, but especially the chunks lying around my house – including the candle holder. What a nice energy that stone has! 🙂

Year 1, Day 19: orange things

I appreciate orange things:

  1. Delicious cantaloupe for breakfast.
  2. The color of the tulips in Katie’s stunning photos (plus I appreciate Katie!)
  3. More wonderful orange food for dinner – carrots and sweet potatoes. I bet I got enough beta carotene today.

Year 1, Day 18: Dealing with Dragons, Chinaberry, Go, Dog. Go!

I appreciate:

  1. Patricia Wrede’s book, Dealing with Dragons. I’ve loved it from the first time I read it to Katie when she was 6 or 7 and love re-reading it now. One of my all-time favorite books!
  2. Chinaberry, which is probably where I learned about Dealing with Dragons — and so many other beloved books.
  3. Go, Dog. Go! (oh, how I loved that party scene!), Harriet the Spy, Catwings, Mr. Putter & Tabby Bake the Cake, Little Women, A Wrinkle in Time, The Awakening, Pride and Prejudice and so many other books that I’ve read, loved, re-read and shared with the kids. Yay books! 😛

Year 1, Day 16: Seriously Happy, sunshine, TCWN

I appreciate:

  1. My new business, Seriously Happy. Every time I read an article, work on the website or create new materials for it, I get soooooo happy! (the alternate name for the company, haha!) 😛
  2. Beautiful, sunny weather and the best neighborhood for walking around in it.
  3. Twin Cities Wellness Network meeting this morning….so many like-minded people supporting each other. Love it!

Year 1, Day 14: complete painting project, clean-up help, to-do list completion, working with Mckenzie

I am grateful for:

  1. Finishing the painting in time for Mckenzie & me to see Show X at Huge!
  2. Pat’s willingness to clean up all the brushes etc from today’s project.
  3. The awesome sense of satisfaction from completing a project that’s been on my to-do list for 12 years!
  4. Mckenzie’s help with the painting- and his excellent music selections while we worked. 🙂

Year 1, Day 13: morning glories, Lake Harriet, KFNA Farmers’ Market

I appreciate:

1. The beautiful morning glories that have finally bloomed on our fence.
2. Living so close to Lake Harriet — and having the time and energy walk around it!
3. The Kingfield Farmer’s market – both in its bustling current-day state and the memory of sitting out there with coffee guy, soap lady, tea lady, and a handful of farmers, selling my jewelry (me, the jewelry lady) every Sunday during those first few years 🙂
