Gratitude Tuesday Top Ten
Hello and Happy Tuesday!
Today on the blog: a new feature. Gratitude Tuesdays. Gratituesdays, if you will. Some posts will focus on one thing for which I am grateful. Some posts will list the top ten things for the week. I did a similar exercise last November when I posted the list each morning on facebook.
So here goes, my first Gratitude Tuesday Top Ten:
I'm grateful for:
1. My husband Hammer Guy's sense of humor. He cracks me up even when I'm in the WORST mood.
2. The fact that, other than the poor animals at the zoo, there were no serious injuries or deaths reported due to last week's horrible flooding in Duluth and St. Louis County.
3. Circle of Writers - I'm grateful for the writing community, for SCBWI, for the Loft Literary Center, for YALITCHAT, for YA Highway, for MNYA Writers, for independent booksellers who support local authors.
4. Hugs and snuggles from my kids.
5. The Summer Olympics, just around the corner. And this year - in London, one of my favorite cities!
6. Goodreads.
7. My mom, who raised 7 kids and not a rotten one in the bunch, and is still making sure we're okay.
8. My dad, who has been gone for almost six years. He instilled in me a sense of responsibility and a strong work ethic. I miss him every day.
9. The library.
10. Coffee.
How about you? What are you grateful for today?
