Gratitude

So for all of you that thought I might not be serious about my wanting to take Deborah Norville's advice from her recent book to heart, here is my attempt at being serious. I created this journal last night and I have 3 pages done already. I've decided to only share the cover only for right now.

I was on a roll yesterday. It was my first Friday in a long time that was all mine. No extra work commitments, no social obligations, just me left to my own devices. Sometimes that can be dangerous as I usually end up wasting time but yesterday I actually got stuff done. Went to the gym early and then did the monthly Costco run and came home to just Laura and I. Laura really wanted to be left alone as did I which made our afternoon perfect. I made about 25 Halloween cards and then started in on my "gratitude" journal. I had so much fun with it that I decided to make a "random thoughts" journal for all those wacky things that pop int my brain and I want to somehow recall later but have no idea (probably due to early Alzheimer's) what it was I wanted to remember. Cracked me up when I looked at it this morning. Made me think of that old SNL sketch "Deep Thoughts with Jack Handy". My random thoughts are not always even that profound!
