Happy Friyay and TTOT time! I have been away, sometimes just finding the time passes until after the deadline. I am always finding gratitude, but oops on my timing. Let’s get to it!
- Sunny days. I am hearing about ripening vegetables and I notice the blueberries are exceptional this year. Yum to the yum. When I went to the grocery, yesterday, they had the local farmer’s market table full of beautiful produce. Needless to say, my cart was filling up just from that selection.
- Rainy days. Following yesterday’s haul at the grocery, we did receive much needed rain today. It broke the heatwave and it’s nice to see a breeze from my window.
- Gifts. One of my dear friends sent me a beautiful gift from Greece. It is a collection of Chagall’s works. She understands my love of art and color. I will definitely be framing these.
- Books. At the business end of books, it’s been very busy. At the reading end which is a combination of business and pleasure, it’s also been busy. Win:Win
- Daughter got some great news about something she signed up for and we are thrilled. Can’t say more, right now.
- Yesterday, my dear sister-friend and I went on a coffee/tea visit and did some reading for projects. I read a manuscript and accepted it for publication. It always feels good when you find something that has that vibe and you can send a message to the author to share good news.
- If you have ever put a book together, you will be able to relate to this. Yesterday morning I was so frustrated because I could not get Adobe to behave. It had a mind of its own and I was ready to scream. Finally, I decided to just leave it alone and come back to it later. I opened it up this morning and it worked like a charm. Maybe my computer needed a day off.
- If you saw the mess on my desk, you may wonder if I have either been lazy, busy, or otherwise occupied. I refuse to own lazy. Busy for the win! And multi-tasking is nothing new for me.
- Comedy. I believe I have shared before that humor is my jam. Well, we had the Fine Lines Humor in Writing Conference last weekend and it was awesome. There was a lot of sharing. Plus, I love listening to comedy when I settle my brain for the night. Lately, Roy Wood, Jr. has gotten my attention. He has albums on Spotify and I just tune in and may go to sleep – not because of Mr. Wood, but because I am tired. Good thing is that I can pick up and start again.
- You! What’s your thankful this week? Share in comments or write a blog post. We would love to hear.
