I appreciate:
1. More purple furniture! Garage sale chairs we recovered ourselves. (I actually appreciate the green ones, too. And the memory of us each picking out our own fabric to use. And the fun of doing the project together….)
2. My friend David who makes me laugh and continually teaches me new coding tricks.
3. Our poor old GracieDog who, though she whines a lot now because she’s senile and confused, is a very sweet dog.
1. I am soooo grateful for Sara who is not only the very best assistant/colleague a girl could ask for, but is also brilliant, funny and adorable. I am thrilled to count her among my dear friends!
2. I appreciate the beautiful way things work out. With no prior discussion, I showed up at work with 2 coffees, and Sara showed up with a delicious gluten-free muffin and locally-grown raspberries to share. Perfection!
3. I appreciate my new office space downtown. The ideal location and set-up for me and my businesses. 🙂
1. I am grateful for the massage I got this morning! Thanks, Jen!
2. I appreciate my awesome tenor uke – even though I still can’t really play it. 😛
3. I am so grateful for my vast support network…whether I’m trying to solve a parenting issue, understand css, write more songs, achieve better health…I have so many people I can turn to. Lucky me! 🙂
1. Cheryl Branz for sending me our late-night, last-night recording of our newly-written (with Jenna Lindbo) Pumpkin Hour from last year’s RMSS. I love it!!
2. Day One of the Song-a-Day challenge with Timmy Riordan and so many other amazing songwriters.
3. New York Times Sunday crossword. Even though it usually takes me a few days to finish it. 🙂
1. Grateful for RMSS memories floating around me and infusing my day with random happy thoughts (like watching the meteor blaze across the sky while listening to music at Camp Waylay and like Bethel Steele sandwich hugs that left me breathless with laughter and love).
2. I so appreciate my soft bed, freshly laundered sheets (thank you, dear) and the luxury of sleeping 10 hours!!
3. I appreciate loving Katie Korpi so much that despite having spent 12 straight days with her, I already miss her now that she’s back at school! ♥
1.   I am grateful for friends like Ellis, Terri, Timmy, John, and so many others who are working to cultivate gratitude and happiness…and do so enthusiastically and publicly!
2.   I appreciate all the gorgeous green leaves on the trees outside my window, with hints of blue sky peeking through
3.   I appreciate the gift of sharing my Song School experience with my amazing, brilliant daughter — and the gift of spending time with my amazing, fascinating son at HUGE theater, yesterday (okay, that’s 2, but who’s counting??)
