I've been a bit whiny and more than a bit cranky about missing fall weather lately. I am grumbling around the house about the absence of orange leaves and scarves. When I'm being a brat, I know it's time for a Thankful Thursday post; a chance to take an honest look at everything, big and small, that I have to be grateful for:
- Diet Sierra Mist Cranberry Splash - There is only one left in my fridge currently, and they are always sold out at the store. I've been rationing.
- Anne Lamott - I'm reading her book, Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life currently, and everything she writes is something I need to read.
- New experiences - I'm realizing I've had a lot of them this year, including my first spin class last night rendering me only able to sit in soft chairs today.
- Mico - He grabs a toy every time it looks like you may have a minute. He is always at the ready, which teaches me a lot about being prepared and willing to play.
- Buddy - This dude snuggles like it's his job.
- Apple cinnamon Glade plug-ins - Fall is present in my outlets.
- Getting to spend so much time with the hubs - Although we get in each other's way occasionally, it is really nice to be able to eat lunch together and have little mini conversations throughout the day.
- A full weekend coming up - dinner with friends, a craft date, football, and a baby shower
