Five Or More Good Things

[charley]

breakfast tomorrow morning, which will just happen to be: treat time - making a mocha coffee, heating a few croissants in the oven, and some triple creme brie
coming home and having the pulled pork all ready to eat and made in the crock pot
potato and cheese pierogies with caramelized onions and served with sour cream
chopped egg sandwiches (with finely diced onions) with some beefsteak tomatoes on the side, all properly seasoned with freshly cracked white pepper and salt (I used to ask for that as a kid in the country and take off and have that on my hike - always fond memories)
BBQ chicken with coleslaw and potato salad, and a hunk of baguette accompanied by a glass of dry white wine

1) Spicy meatless 'meat' balls and organic fire-roasted veggies. It's what I am having for dinner, right now, and it's soooooo good.

2) a brand new nail polish. It's a rose-gold sparkly color. I just had to buy it, cuz it's pretty.

3) The will to stay on task, because it's staying on task that gets the job done. I've accomplished some major goals this past week, by staying on task and remaining committed to deadlines that will empower me to earn a better salary.

4) Making a dream come to life. You know, the important dreams (goals) you have over the years. I'm making one dream come to life. Hopefully soon, I'll be engulfed in my latest dream come true. That's when the proverbial stars in the universe are in alignment, right?

5) The bed you sleep on needs to be real good, which is why I invested in a good mattress last summer. That new mattress (it's made of memory foam and cradles your body and helps you to sleep better) was the best thing I've bought, in quite some time. I miss my bed when I'm not home, so when I return home, I know I'm gonna sleep like a baby on the mattress I gifted to myself last summer. Here's to memory foam mattresses. It was spendy, but such a good investment.

1) Clean laundry

2) Completed financial aid appl. Hopefully, be back at school to finish my Science and Technology degree in Earth Science this term.

3) Thinking of my Dad, aunt and uncle, all engineers, they'd be a great support.

4) Still have my infected leg that the docs saved.

5) Still a clean, sober, smoke-free, leather commie bitch.

6) Last, but certainly not least...this is the year we kick Trump to the curb!

My dental office just dropped by, so I think what they gave me is so uplifting and shows how caring they are toward me.

They gave me:

1) polished Red apples

2) fresh winter Pears (they're so beautiful)

3) Toilet paper (big, big rolls)

4) Jasmine Rice (a biggo commercial size bag)

5) and.... flowers. A beautiful bouquet of Tulips, probably from their garden by the office.

1. My Mind. I am thankful for the fact that I can still think for myself and make clear sound decisions based on logic, reason and intuition.

2. Water.

3. Food - Dried Goods. The fact that we are still able to get dried pasta, beans and rice is a blessing. Food prices have gone up and I wouldn't be surprised if they continue to.

Eight chicks growing like crazy. We lost two right off the bat but the eight remaining are growing like weeds.
Dogs that love us unconditionally and have no understanding of a pandemic.
Money enough to have a well packed larder.
Seeing spring is coming which means less money spent on wood and oil and tillable soil for a garden to sustain us.
A loving wife, um sexy wife, to go through this with.

1. The stay at home order made me realize how many neighbors around here have dogs!

2. I thought the Mink were gone from our ravine, but alas! I saw one yesterday, yes I said Mink.

3. We will all rise from the ashes of this virus, this will be the beginning of the death throes of for-profit healthcare. Such idiotic nonsense to have your health insurance tied to your job. I can smell universal care around the corner.

4. When one is home 24 hours a day, the self reflection is cathartic. I find myself s l o w i n g down and making decisions in a more cerebral manner.

5. The local grocer finally had blueberry syrup, what took so long?


or more.....

Mother Earth is breathing better since the global shutdown.

WOW, I googled that, and I had no idea they had colouring books like that; I used to paint, and as a kid was always given colouring books, etc., but we never had such beautiful books like that!

I had this thought, like maybe I could go and buy one, and suddenly, it dawned on me, the art stores are closed (I don't order online, oh well)...

Trust you have a lot of fun doing those.
