Thankful

This day has zipped by. I’ve gotten a ton of things done today but I’m still behind. Is that everyone’s story?

Of course at this time of year, it’s natural to be thinking about what I’m thankful for and the list is long. I’m thankful for good health – always number one on my list because without that everything else pales.

This has been a difficult year in many ways, but certainly not the ones that are critical. All of my loved ones are well. I have a nice,warm home to be snuggled into tonight. My friends are plentiful, my comforts many.

I often think about Maslow and realize that when I have time to be thinking about the future and what I’m concerned about that life is full and rich.

I have worked more on the house tonight, going through and throwing away more things. This is going to be a very long process, but if I keep at it I can make significant progress. I can tell a difference, although I have a long way to go.

I took a big pile of boxes and such out for trash pick up. I’m not sure when they’ll pick up this week since tomorrow is a holiday.

It’s hard to believe in only a little over two weeks I’ll have guests here. I have so much to do between now and then. Fortunately, much of it is “fun” work. But, of course, it all takes time to accomplish.
