“Winter lingered so long in the lap of Spring
that it occasioned a great deal of talk.”
~Bill Nye
Today is shiny and warm. YAY! I’m going out to soak up the sun. I promise I won’t take it all. 🙂
What are you grateful for today?
Happy Tuesday!

Yesterday, I was grateful for the warm weather, too — 50 degrees! Today, I have another snowstorm to look forward to. Regardless, I’m grateful that my whole family woke up in good moods today and we had a positive start to the day. 🙂

Grateful I got 1000 words written yesterday. What a lovely photo-although now, I’d like it better without the snow! Here’s hoping what I see today is the end of that for this winter.

I’m grateful that in 11 days I’ll be leaving for Disneyland to celebrate my big 5-0. And I guess I’m grateful that I’ve survived to celebrate my big 5-0. Yikes!!!

I was grateful for a few days of 55-60 degree weather. Then snow yesterday. But, most important, my brother made his transition on Tuesday and I am very grateful that he is at peace and free of pain. The flowers remind me of his rebirth.

I am super-grateful to have finally released the first episode of my web series yesterday. There was a time when I thought it would never come out, and that it would be locked forever in “development hell.” I scrapped an entire draft of the first episode because people said it wasn’t visually interesting enough, and for a long time I thought this was the wrong decision, but as it turns out, the new animation team I have is absolutely boss.
