Serious gratitude

Hi friends!

Hope you're all well. Today I've got some serious gratitude for some really important stuff. Like:

1)  I'm so grateful that the tornadoes tearing through NC didn't kill or hurt (or even damage the property of) my family or friends. See what I mean...serious.
2)  Also grateful that the frightening stuff is over for now and they seem to be having lovely weather down NC way. (Also sad for those who lost their lives, their loved ones, etc. If you can say a prayer, that'd be a wonderful thing to do.)
3)  Actually grateful that a divorce is finally happening. A dear friend, a bad marriage, and finally...movement in the right direction...it's going to be a long, hard road but movement in the right direction is good.
4)  Grateful that my cats come when I call them. They're only playing in the stairwell, but still...
5)  Finally, grateful for my good health, the good health of my parents, the good health of my brother and nephews and so many others that I care about. And the good health of my children with fur...you know by now that they are my children. The fur just makes them fluffier than everyone else's children. (Plus, no need for a college fund!)



Whew...Monday and I'm exhausted, but a good night's sleep will fix me right up, and with so much to be thankful for, including GORGEOUS Paris weather, tomorrow is bound to be brimming with beauty! So what about you? What's good in your life today?

bisous
