Why I'm grateful today:

1. I know lots of amazing people. People I really look up to. And these same people are also in my corner, rooting for me. How cool is that?
2. The wind. It howled, carried up the dirt, blew leaves and sticks all over the place. It moaned and whistled and slammed my doors open and shut. The wind reminds me that I'm alive.
3. The birthday dinner actually turned out to be good. (First tries on recipes don't usually come out successful for me.)
4. To feel happy. Not because I've earned it or deserve it. I just feel happy today. I'm grateful.
5. Playing with Sam today. Climbing, playing music...(I was not on my game in either area today, but it was nice to spend some time with him before he heads out of town again).
