July 6 Gratitude List

1. My dear beautiful child, who even now is refusing to take a nap, which actually makes me happy. That way I can finish up some things I wanted to accomplish and take a nap with her later. I could use one.

2. My dear John, who was so sweet to me this morning as he was leaving for work. He is truly just a genuinely GOOD man. I love him and I am so happy to be with him.

3. Clean sheets. There is something sweet and pleasant about clean sheets.

4. The office, and thus my immediate area that I spend a good portion of my day, is also clean and organized. I feel so much better when it's like that.

5. My nursing relationship with Kira. It took long to get it established, and now I treasure it as I watch her sweet little face while she nurses.

6. There's nothing on TV, so it won't distract me from other things.

7. Classical music. I love classical music. I blare it like most people blare rock or rap. Go figure that I'd be such an odd duck. But there's something soul-lifting about classical music. Dancing around the kitchen to Beethoven while washing dishes is very meditative.

8. Organic, healthy food. I love it. I just enjoyed some rice based "ice cream" (dairy intolerance unless it's raw). It was great.

9. I'm not pregnant. I know it sounds strange, but yeah. I'm glad not to be pregnant and not to be having periods.

10. Another stunningly beautiful day today.
