Sunday’s a good day to remember what we’ve been grateful for over the past week, don’t you think? I’m joining Taryn over at Wooly Moss Roots in her Gratitude Sunday tradition, and here’s my list:
– Relaxing by the open window, watching a thunderstorm roll in.
– Remembering, over and over, that I don’t have to get up and go to work in the morning!
– Noticing little coincidences & synchronicities in my life again. They appear when I’m in my flow & on my path, and disappear when I’m not. I hadn’t seen them in so long (during the time I was unhappy in my job & knowing that I should quit), that I’d almost forgotten about them! It’s fun to see them again — they always feel like confirmation that I’m right on track…right where I’m supposed to be.
– Though still extremely busy, I’m feeling a lot more balance in my life, and almost zero stress.(!)
– Discovering that doing contract work from home is really my thing. I’m in charge of my time! What a concept!
– Being home during the day to enjoy SUMMER!
– Eating heaps of beautiful garden lettuce, and stuffing it into body-nourishing green smoothies.
– Going to the Gay Pride parade with my Hubby…it was so fun! The vibe was neat — a huge gathering of open-minded folks, where everyone could be whoever they were and everyone was totally OK with that. Families were there, with toddlers yelling “Happy Pwide Day!”

– The most wonderful day hanging out one-on-one with my dad, going to one of our favorite nature-places. He is such a great dad; I really cherish him. And it was so special to have some one-on-one time together out in nature. We both absolutely loved it!
I packed a picnic for us of Spanakopita, Moroccan Carrot Salad, grapes, and Finnish Cardamom Cupcakes (recipe coming soon). Yum! We ate lunch in a gazebo out on a lake, reachable by the boardwalk above.

Love your list!
I love what you wrote about synchronicities and coincidences! So true.
Love to you!
Great quote by the toddler . . . a good example of kids growing up in a world now where tolerance and acceptance are becoming the norm. So good. 🙂 Thank you for sharing your gratitude list–it’s always uplifting to read!
