Inspired by the 365grateful project by Hailey Bartholomew. I began this blog on February 28, 2014, my 46th birthday, and challenged myself to take a few moments from each day (for 365 days) to reflect on something I am grateful for, something that brings me joy or makes me smile. Mission accomplished. Then 4 years whooshed by and I have started up all this good stuff again at age 51. Here goes...the goal is at least a gratitude post each week. Cheers!

Mondays should always be this pretty
Oh my, today I am thankful that I am wearing flip-flops for the first time since early September. Might be time to celebrate with a little polish on the toenails.

Rabbit condo
I had an idea for converting an old dresser into a rabbit condo (or more like a town home) that we can keep out on our porch. It will be attached to their gated run-around space so they go in and out as they please. This is what we are starting with...and the drawers we took out will make fantastic garden boxes. Brent is helping me with the construction...more pictures to come!

If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need." -Cicero
Family day at the library...used to be every weekend when the kids were younger. I love it. Each of us usually come out of there after an hour with our arms full of treasures. Today I hit the jackpot in the music section, bringing home a whole lot of Hank Williams.
Spent the afternoon downloading CDs and listening.

Awkward
Today I am thankful to have great kid art to gaze at during the work day.
This piece Dominik has entitled Awkward.

Free Stuff
Once in a while, for entertainment value, I check Craigslist under Free Stuff. Some of the most interesting items are listed.

The bluest house you've ever seen is in Tacoma
The kid's have Spring Break and Brent has this week off. While I worked, they got a start on our house-painting project. Today was first-coat-on-the-detached-garage day.
One section at a time, and by the end of summer our home will be covered in fresh paint. I love the color...
