Welcome
November 15, 2019
Day 15 of NATIONAL NOVEL WRITING MONTH! Are any of you participating? I’m now officially behind. Gah! But I WILL catch up! “Nevertheless, she persisted…”
November is also the month of thanks and I’m all about gratitude. I’ll be listing a gratitude each day:
15. Interspecies friendships. I’m a sucker for ’em.
14. Being safe
13. Fred Rogers and World Kindness Day. Kindness. Cardigans.
12. Indian food so spicy it makes your nose run
11. Ghost stories and haunted houses/sites
10. Slow mornings–when you can wake without an alarm and linger over coffee and stay in jammies a long time
9. Goats
8. Books–I can’t imagine life without them
7. Bright red autumn leaves scuttling across pavement
6. My wonderful, generous, kind fella and partner in all things–he makes every single thing more fun and I’m never bored.
5. My odd, stout cat in my lap, his purr vibrating through me
4. Celebrating my three-years-cancer-free anniversary!!!
3. The way the sky is that vivid bright blue in autumn.
2. Smooth, strong coffee with real whipping cream
1. My amazing tribe of family and friends. We circle the wagons when times are tough, lift each other, and double the joy in happy times.
The talented Nancy Jones has written a profile of me in her blog Crafting a Career–my path has certainly not been straight, but it’s worked out just fine. And the lovely Christina Consolino also interviewed me.
