    Thursday's Thoughts: Always Time

    Thursday's Thoughts: a taste of what I'm thinking

    Even when I feel stretched for time there is always time to be thankful.  With that in mind, here's a quick list of what I'm grateful for right now.

    chirping birds outside the window
    open windows (hello spring!)
    walking inside just before a downpour starts
    plenty of tasks to stay busy with
    the health and resources to complete those tasks
    stillness of the morning (on the rare occasion I'm up that early)
    color in the sky
    when the sun turns dew drops on grass blades into a rainbow of diamonds
    blooming spring flowers
    evening walks
    longer daylight hours
    emails with far away friends
    the hum of crickets at night
    sunglasses
    can openers
    dish soap
    pleasant conversation
    a family game and pizza night
    handwritten recipes
    magazines to page through
    fresh green beans
    a good night's sleep
    anticipation


    Food for Thought: " 'After all,' Anne had said to Marilla once, 'I believe that the nicest and sweetest days are not those on which anything very splendid or wonderful or exciting happens but just those that bring simple little pleasures, following one another softly, like pearls slipping off a string.' " -L. M. Montgomery, Anne of Avonlea
