Green Oasis

I am grateful for…

1. … time off from work that reminds me that I am not my job (and takes me far enough out of my routine that I forgot to post one of these on Monday).
2. … time spent at the park with my family and my nice niece and her family.
3. … a clean house.
4. … girls who regularly astound me with how much they’re learning and the wonderful people that they’re becoming.
5. … the scary realization that people at work put a lot of trust in me.

…even the smartest kids still need to do their homework.—Jonah Lehrer in Don’t!

A lesson I’ve learned regrettably late in life. Happily, I might have learned it much later.

Today, I’m feeling grateful that…

1. I’m not a sex slave. I wonder how much porn features sex slaves.
2. I get to take a class this semester on linear systems theory.
3. I have a loving family.
4. I like the people that I work with.
5. I have so much art so readily available to me.
