Simple Blessings...

The warmth of someone sleeping beside me
Puppy kisses, snuggles and enthusiastic tail wags
Hearing the laughter of my children
Listening to the breeze in the Pines
Enjoying the Fall colors
Knowing I have a job I like that helps provide
Long Weekends
Sitting by the warm fireplace with Cedar logs
Tomato soup & grilled cheese on a rainy day
Soothing music
Family meals- these are becoming a rare thing
Having Ice Cream
Downtime with friends
Prayer and contemplation

These are what keep me going...

Lovely. I like grilled cheese with tomato soup on rainy days too. So soothing.
This post makes me wanna curl up with my kids under a warm blanket and snuggle eating popcorn. Hee hee.

Great list, TL. We need to take a moment to enjoy these things - it is all a gift from God.

Just dropping by to say, Hi! And they are all great blessings even if simple. But many times I think the simple blessings are the most important blessings.

Hey There! Thanks to all who viewed and gave feedback. I'm not sure why the link and password work for some and not for others. I myself couldn't log into the session tonight- it's strange.

I have never considered myself to be very photogenic. For every 1 shot that looks nice, there are 10 of me that are gross. You should see my driver's license photos- bleh! The fact that any of me turned out well is an indicator of the skill of the photographer.

I have a good time at work making ID badges with fake identities. The first one I did was for Greta Goolahee. The second was Bertha McGillycuddy. Wish you could see the picture for that one. I'm wearing a sweatband with my hair all pulled tightly back. I look like an East German Drill Seargent. HEE HEE I've started a trend at work and some of the other staff also have a real badge with a gag-badge behind it. Gotta watch those red-heads- never know what they will be up to next. :o)
