Appreciations 4.186- fun, friendly folks, and foresight

thank youI love having reasons to make new cards! Fun fun fun.

The friendly folks I’ve been talking to for the last month at MN Care. Eventually we’ll get my file untangled and I’ll have insurance again…Meanwhile, they are always so pleasant to talk with and we generally find something to laugh about while we chat. 🙂

The clever me who had the foresight to make the stock yesterday so I could easily finish up some warming, lovely soup today. And now to bed – before 8 pm. I must need the rest! 😉

Appreciations 4.168 – after the kerfuffle

peaceful kittiesThe kitties settling back down into their more or less peaceful coexistence. After the kerfuffle this past weekend, they were very hissy and growly for a bit, but now they seem to be over it. Whatever it was!

The word kerfuffle. I mean really. Kerfuffle!

goofy to do list.JPGMy solution to a feeling a little overwhelmed? Draw some shapes on a note card and make a little 2-day list it. It’s hard to be overwhelmed by a list with colorful friendly shapes on it. 😉

Getting through a slue of pesky tasks I’d been putting off. Go, me! 😉

The fact that you can spell slue s-l-u-e or s-l-e-w. I like both variations. It makes me LAUGH that the word derives from mid 19th cent Irish SLUAGH. Hahaha!

The fun of getting ready to teach Laughter Yoga again. It’s been awhile. Gonna dust off my hahahas and heeheehees. 😀

Taking the time for a little coloring meditation this morning. My day feels so much more balanced when I start slowly instead of jumping right into doing. 🙂

My cell phone cover, for keeping my phone safe. My phone for coming back to life after pretending to die. 🙂

A day with plenty of energy. Yay! Enough to get some really good work work done, and some really good rehearsal prep work, and then to get through another excellent rehearsal! After yesterday (I crashed on the couch for the entire evening after rehearsal and yard work ), I was feeling a little discouraged…but then today, I had all the energy I needed. Even got the kitchen cleaned up. Hooray!

Singing. Oh, what fun it is when we get to this part of the season when most of us know most of our parts on most of the songs. 😛 Peggy is so patient and wonderful. I am so happy to be singing with these fine ladies again. ❤

snail card 300x300More drawing fun. I like how pleased I am with myself…like a little kid. 😉 I made a get well card with a snail on it for Pam who likes snails. It was so much fun to do!
