5 Things I am Grateful For Today
Tuesday, January 03, 2006
1. Mr. C having the day off from work. So we could spend the entire day together and dawdle around the shops, have lunch and have coffee out today.
2. Sabbatical. Because it leaves me free of hundreds of University students and allows me to set my own hours, work at my own pace, and dive into the research that I choose. And for the fact that when I show up at the office, everyone literally says "Why are you here? You're on sabbatical; shoo."
3. Weather. We have no storms, no severe weather of any kind, no massive rains, nor drought, no mudslides, no heat waves, no tornadoes or hurricanes. This is today. It could change tomorrow. But for today, I am grateful for this.
4. Children. They are healthy, and happy. My older son perhaps too happy (is this possible?). Every day of my life, I will be grateful for healthy and happy children.
5. Mr. C. Again, Mr.C. At risk of gagging some of you. For understanding that a woman can never have enough sweaters hanging in her closet. And for loving me.
