~ I’m once again joining Taryn over at Wooly Moss Roots in her Gratitude Sunday tradition. ~
Gratitude Sunday is a time to slow down and remember those thankful moments that graced our week. One reason I love keeping a daily gratitude journal is because it helps keep things in perspective for me. Each Sunday, I open my journal and share some of those moments with you here. If you’d like to join in, just leave a comment!
Gratitude is powerful energy. I love hearing others’ gratitudes!

– I’m so grateful to be at our new house! I just love it. Love it!!!
– For the internet connection that F has magically been able to cobble together for me. They don’t hook up our phone or internet for another couple days, so I’ve been really appreciating the internet when I have it, especially for the time-sensitive moneymaking work I needed to get out. Thank you honey!!!
– And also, for the time unplugged. It’s been peaceful without the phone ringing (though I’ll really appreciate it when we have it), and also a welcome break from the ‘net.
– Transforming terrible, tasteless fruit into something delicious, simply by cooking it. It always amazes me.
– Cooking everything in the solar oven since we’ve moved in! Cookies, quinoa, plums, peaches, lentils, an egg, more quinoa, tea, garlic rosemary potatoes, and a steak (which we’ll have to try again, since the clouds rolled in).
– Gardening at dusk with the crickets and cicadas. How peaceful.
– That F knew just what to do to troubleshoot the hot water heater when it stopped working! I love how we each have our own areas of expertise, and putting our brains together, we can pretty much tackle anything.
– Our beautiful new kitchen. It’s such a pleasure to work in.
– The Olympics!! I love watching the Olympics!!!
– Being moved in. It was a lot of effort and thought and energy output to move. I’m really glad it’s over and we’re getting settled now. Things are still feeling messy and chaotic (except the kitchen — that was the first priority), but soon it’ll be much better.
– Having our own private outdoor space. Ahhhhhh… it feels so so sooo good.
– Tea in the garden.
– Moonlight flooding in the big southside windows.
– Setting up our home! What fun!
– My sweet little kitty companion, who kindly supervises my moneymaking work.

hehe.. I’m in a repeating words mood.. 🙂
Congrats on your new/old home. Must feel great to be back. I can picture you all moved in to the big room with the large glass picture window, with curtains opened at the first sounds of morning. Yummy. Spacious has a whole new feel now, doesn’t it.
And the “gray beast” looks happy too! Welcome home!
Hi. Thank you so very much. Hope you’re enjoying all of the chgenas that Autumn brings. I’m doing my best to embrace all of it even, and actually, mostly, the unexpected aspects of transition. Peace and Blessings <3
