I appreciate:

• Heat. I know I’ve said that before — but this winter I really, really appreciate it. Every day.
• Paper and pens. Although I spend much of my day and do most of my work online, I do love writing things – notes for myself, lists, letters and cards to friends. Remember writing letters?
• How satisfying it can be to accomplish something small (especially during a day in which things aren’t quite falling into place!) 5 minutes to reorganize the freezer and set up a system so we know which ice packs are coldest = a whole evening of feeling good.
