Last night, I was thinking about gratitude and thankfulness. I know they are related but they aren't the same thing. In that moment, I was having a hard time separating them, so googled it and one site said that Thankfulness is a feeling and Gratitude is an attitude. I guess that's where we hear "Attitude...

Merry Christmas Eve Musings
It’s Christmas Eve. The dog got me up extra early this morning. So I turned on the tree, made a cup of tea, and grabbed a book I’ve been wanting to read for years. DD has been trying to get me to read ever since she read it! I LOVE books. I used to read... Continue Reading →

Life is what you make of it.
Happy Halloween! I have always loved Halloween. My birthday falls so near, so my parties growing up were usually Halloween themed. I don't know that I ever really enjoyed Trick-or-Treating... I was soooo shy but I did love making treats! I remember when I was really little, like elementary school aged, we always made popcorn... Continue Reading →
Good Morning!
This morning I did something. I sat at our BIG picture window and watched the sun come up. I didn't do anything else. I just watched the sunrise. It started with just a little pink in the clouds and grew to a lot then shrank back down to just a little. I was thinking well,... Continue Reading →
