I’m grateful for over 60 years with Ray, children and grandchildren, the cousins, the earth, hospitals, people who visit, being an artist, steadfast friends, iPhones, iPads, computers, watching people take long walks on the beach I’m not really flowery or witty today, but my heart encompasses so much love

I am thankful to God for everything. He has blessed me with: a wonderful sister and brother, wonderful cousins – Jilly, Jerry, Celia, and I also remember Ted. I love you all and pray for you. I am thankful for Chad, Cerra, and Samantha. I am thankful for all the help given me over the years.
Happy New Year everyone!

I heard once, that the new year is a good time to think about what you want more of and less of in the upcoming year (versus unrealistic resolutions). This year, for me, i want more gratitude and less sitting. Will dust off my gratitude jar – a mason jar in which I pop in a little note about what I’m grateful for – and will be writing in my “Tiny Buddha Gratitude Journal.” As for the sitting – it’s a challenge when you work at a desk to get in the steps/movement that keep the joints lubricated and the heart pumping. So, I’ll be dusting off the treadmill and endeavoring to step on it more this year!

In the meantime, I’m grateful for all the love in my life from family and friends, and for modern technology that helps us stay in touch! 🙂
