Life is good. Life is bad. Life is happy. Life is sad. Sometimes, life is all of this at the same time. But whatever life throws your way, there is always, always something to be thankful for. That is the purpose of this experiment. 366 Days of Gratitude... One leap year. It probably won't change your world, or your view of the world. But I hope it changes mine. One day, one moment, one blessing at a time.....

Day 3 of 366
As I prepare to get back to every day life and the hustle and bustle that comes with it, I suspect this will get a little harder. Life will become more hectic, I will become more frazzled. Gonna ride it out and see where it takes me. Its only Day 3. We still have 363 days to go :)
*I'm thankful for spontaneous "I love you"s. Gavin has always said that a lot. Probably because I say it to him every chance I get as well. But there is no better way to lift my mood than hearing that, unasked and uncalled for. And I do know he means it. I must be doing something right....
*We went out for supper tonight. I'm thankful that there is no mess to clean up, and that Gavin only ate half his pizza. It means I can throw the other half in his lunch, making one evening task a little easier as I ease back into this school/work/activity routine.
*I'm thankful for kitty cuddles and purrs. There is nothing more relaxing than having a purring cat on your lap. Otis was my snuggle buddy. Even today, while I was cleaning something that made me think of him, I shed a tear. He;s been gone since April, and I still miss him. But I'm thankful that Sweetie has stepped right in. He's probably the second most affectionate cat I have known, and I am going to take advantage of his natural tranquilizer whenever he is willing to give it.
