Okay, so I’m not doing very well blogging every day. But, there are things everyday that I am thankful for!

2.Videos of my granddaughter doing anything – she loves to dance and kick her little soccer ball.
3. Tried a new recipe last night – turned out pretty well. Lots of veggies!
4. Just to stay balanced, have a new chocolate recipe to try tonight.
5. Family, friends, meeting new people!

Well, I have not been very good about checking in here over the weekend – so busy, hubby’s birthday, lots of writing, and LOTR was on yesterday (the entire trilogy). So, here’s my list for the weekend:
1. Even though I’m not caught up on my writing, the story is going well and I’m finding research to add depth.
2. One weekly obligation ended on a high note and frees up more time for writing.
3. Birthday celebrations – we make a big deal over b-days so my hubby had to endure the constant Happy Birthday week cheers for days on end! Glad I could take him out for his choice for dinner and get his fav dessert – ice cream cake.
4. Snow finally arrived over night. It’s quite lovely and I’m glad that I don’t have to go out in it. It is plenty enjoyable from inside.
5. Brownies baking in the oven for later, yum!

It has been a busy week, I’m surprised constantly by how quickly time seems to pass. Maybe it’s just because I’m older.
1. While it is colder,I’m thankful that we don’t have snow yet,
2. I’m thankful that my daughter and I share so much in common – we have fun together.
3. Being home where it is quiet and warm – for the Lord’s protection all day.

Today’s list has one item:
Thank You to all the men and women who have served in our nation’s military. I look at the flag every day and thank GOD that I live in this country and have the freedoms afforded by your sacrifices. May GOD bless you all.

My gratitude list for today:
1. The beautiful weather. It really felt like spring and I thought I saw some of the fading blossoms perk up in the sunlight.
2. Work related – all my appointments showed up, As in being there and ready to work today. That does not happen very often. Instead of being drained, I felt more energized at the end of the day.
3. Writing is going well on my novel, Our group meeting tonight was encouraging and so fun hearing about others’ projects.

I can’t believe how this weekend has flown by. I haven’t completed many of my chores or met my word count for the day, but it has been a good day nonetheless.
1. I’m thankful that the church service went smoothly. Some days are a bit more challenging,but today we had lots of volunteers, the kids were attentive, and worship was AWESOME!
2. I got to play with my granddaughter for a couple of hours. Definitely more important even if she does wear me out.
3. Seeing how prayer is answered, especially in the small things. I know I am guilty of overlooking these blessings, but I am paying more attention. Thank You, Lord , for being so patient.

Today was a busy day but it was all good!
1. Had lunch with two friends I had not seen for a long time. It was like we just picked up from our last visit. Hooray for 2 1/2 hour lunches.
2. Found a great book on writing to share with my writer’s group next week. And, hoping it will help me keep ‘butt in chair’ for next 22 days.
3. My DH reset my watch for DST – I could not figure it out and have been watch-less all week.
On The Run...
