Antidote to a gray and gloomy day…

Leave a Comment

I do live in a beautiful place, and most days I am able to share photos of pretty things. Today was not one of those days. It started out dark and gray and has progressed, as of 3pm, to a little less dark and gloomy. No boats, no birds, just gray. So, I am driven to lighten up my thoughts with something a little warmer.

I love volunteering at the library. I feel as if I have found my niche. On Tuesdays, I catalog. On Wednesdays, I work at the front desk. And, starting this Thursday, I run The Drama Club with the 6-9th graders in the after school program. All that makes me happy.

I was able to post this morning’s blog post on my two-week-old Mac Air…doesn’t sound like much, except that it meant finding a whole new way to route my downloaded photos and a new way to navigate a lap top…my daughter has done yeoman good service since I received my new gem and has guided me each step of the way…I will give myself a little pat on the back for being a good Googler and figuring a few things out myself. All that makes me happy.

I have a digital picture frame in my bedroom, facing my bed…on that digital picture frame are photos of my grandbabygirl, dating back to a couple days before her birth. This makes me very happy.

My dog loves me. He sleeps snuggled up to me all night and then again when I settle down to read or watch TV. This makes me happy.

It’s the little things, right?
