Gratitude

I find that gratitude combats a lot of negativity.

I have a "One Thousand Gifts Journal" that I write in frequently.  If you have not read "One Thousand Gifts" by Ann Voskamp I highly recommend it!

Anyway, being stuck at home could cause a bit of stress and negativity if I were to allow it.

I decide on gratitude.

Here's what I'm grateful for today:

• Family dinners with fun conversations and laughter
• Jigsaw puzzles throughout the house

(We're a tad competitive and like to do our own. :-)  ) 

• Masses streamed live to my computer (though I really, really miss the Eucharist)
• Nightly walks with Wayne
• Lots of Snapchats, FaceTimes and texts with family
• Getting spring cleaning done
• That the mail is still getting delivered
• That our pantry and freezer are full
• Our furnace, hot water heater, dishwasher, washer and dryer all work
• Our kids love each other (they went and got Shamrock shakes together last night) 
• The sunrise through my dining room window 

Stay well!
