Five Things
- This is an odd choice during wintertime, but I’m grateful for refrigeration. My life would be very different if we had never invented it.
- I am happy to have a place to write. Even if what I write never reaches another sentient being, it is good therapy to have somewhere to express my thoughts. I guess all those exhortations from Mormon leaders to be a journal writer weren’t silly after all.
- I am thankful to have two weeks off from work. Spending them on a staycation with my family has been good for me, even if we’ve been taking turns being sick.
- Thank you to whomever turned me on to this idea of listing five things for which I’m grateful every week. I’m noticeably happier. I’m not immune to down times, but I’ve been more resilient. Or maybe that’s just the staycation talking. Either way, I’m happier right now.
- I’m grateful for my new Macbook. Really, it’s on loan from my employer, but you know. Perhaps this is silly, but it’s made me feel more creative. Being able to sit on my couch and write stuff has somehow freed some extra creative juices. Go figure.
