I've already enjoyed a 30-lap swim this morning. Going to the YMCA was an adventure because they are resurfacing the parking lot and much of it was blocked off. Parking was chaotic. So I parked on the street near a "No Parking Any Time" sign.
I'm thinking of blessings this morning, maybe because we have arrived at Thanksgiving month. I've been reminding myself upon waking and settling toward sleep to review five things I am grateful for. I try to do uncommon as well as more common things like health, family and friends. Here are some:
- The sewer system
- Rain
- A working furnace and air conditioner
- New dryer
- Our dog Barney
- Ability to move comfortably
- Multiple pool options for lap swimming
- Creativity
- A hard freeze
- Pickleball
- My sewing machine and the know-how to use it
- Ability to read
- Right to vote
- Our neighbors
My mind can run off into terrifying territory. Making these lists pulls my attention back to where I want it to be.
Be blessed this Saturday!
