On the Eve–

Filed under: Gratitude,Inspiration,Life — gardener @ 11:49 am

It’s the eve of my 45th birthday and in spite of being really busy today- I’ve spent some time thinking about the past year and all the blessings I am surrounded with. I have aligned myself and surrounded myself with some wonderful and amazing people, all of whom I love and rejoyce in knowing they are there for me if and when I need them for an ear- or just to bounce an idea off of.

Tomorrow- my actual birthday, I’ll spend with my favorite guy- we’ve made reservations at Jamie Oliver’s Fifteen- one of my favorite places to have dinner and I plan on indulging- I’ve already been checking out the menu and I know it will be wonderful.

I’m looking forward to this next year- of being happy and healthy- and continuing on my journey of life, love and learning.

Wouldn’t be Surprised

Ever since Marcel bought his scooter several months ago he has started looking into motorcycles and I think has become fascinated with them. I halfway expect him to tell me that he would like to buy one, but right now he has been content with looking and also reading about motorcycle donation and talking about it. I know him though- and nothing would surprise me.

My Gratitude List for July 11, 2012.

Today I’m grateful for:

  1. Spending the last few hours of my 44th year in reflection of just how blessed I am.
  2. Receiving a surprise package in the mail-  Totally made my day!
  3. Sitting in silence and feeling surrounded by love and true friendships.  Priceless. …
  4. Propping my feet up and having a cup of Illy after a very long- but productive day.
  5. A thunderstorm that blew in out of nowhere-  lasted for a half hour and left sunshine and blue skies in its wake.

More Like Fall

In spite of the rains we are having on and off today- I can’t help but open the windows and doors and let the fresh air in. Here we are- almost mid-July and the high today was 59 degrees! I know that some people are hating it- but quite honestly- I don’t mind the cooler temps especially when I need to be inside all day whipping up things in the kitchen. Oddly though, I was cooking dinner and kept smelling cigars and I’m yet to figure out where that was coming from. I don’t really think it could have been one of our neighbors especially in this weather- but I guess anything is possible. Maybe they have their doors and windows open too.
