My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts

It is a bit difficult to write about Happiness today, because of course it is the anniversary of one of the most horrendous days in our nation’s recent history. And it is the day after putting our sweet feline kitty to sleep. But I will try.

1. First of all, the ability to feel and experience emotions, even the really tough ones.

2. A beautiful evening walk along the Savannah River a few blocks from our place and encountering a huge cargo ship heading out to sea and on to Marseille, France.

3. Daughter Amy’s medical company here in Savannah, Coastal Care Partners, winning multiple awards announced in the current edition of Savannah Magazine.

4. All these little Jesus figurines that keeping popping up. I’m not sure of their exact purpose, but they always made me smile.

Have you seen them around where you live?

5. Joyful memories of Benny and his 17 1/2 years of enjoying life.

May you enjoy life this weekend!

Oh No, Not My Hair!

So yesterday, Robert and I were eating lunch at Panera when a downpour of rain erupted. I looked past Robert’s blue arm and saw her …

I didn’t know what she was doing, but with my inquisitive nature, I had to keep watching …

Creative Thinking!

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts

1. Robert and me enjoying an Atlanta Braves home game.

“Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jacks
I don’t care if I never get back
Let me root, root, root for the home team
If they don’t win it’s a shame …”

BTW, it was a shame, darn it.

But still a grand old time.

2. And what’s a baseball game without a foot-long hotdog?!

3. The ability to smile … and mean it.

4. Atlanta’s High Museum of Art, one of our favorite spots to hang out when we visit the ATL.

5. Taking a closer look at the very artistic children’s playground at Atlanta’s Piedmont Park.

It was imagined and designed back in 1976 by terrific artist Isamu Noguchi.

May you get some playing done this weekend!
