Reasons to be grateful
I am still not inspired to do any creative stuff. I keep looking at the piece I started before leaving for Japan and I just don’t feel compelled to work on it. Oh well. I might need to start a new project and let that one sit for a while.
I am thinking about Scotland today. I am hoping I can get back there this year. Here’s a picture of Urquhart Castle. My personal moment of zen today.

Anyway, I am still reading other people’s blogs. One of my all time favorite blogs is Crazy Aunt Purl. It’s sort of a knitting blog (I don’t knit), but mostly it’s Laurie Perry’s goofy adventures through life. Anyway, she has a routine of listing three things she’s grateful for each day. She wrote about it on her blog yesterday and it felt like a good thing to do myself today.
So here are three things I am grateful for today:
1) The sun is shining in Chicago!!!!!! It has been so rainy lately. I am SO happy to be out in the sunshine.
2) My daughter has just returned from an 8 1/2 month study program in Japan. I get to see her tonight.
3) I am having my favorite Mexican food tonight; shrimp tacos and a margarita from Rancho Grande. Yum!
I am also really grateful that anyone actually reads my blog. I actually have subscribers. Whoohoo! Thanks, whoever you are!
I would really love to hear things you are grateful for. Leave a comment!
