Things I’m massively grateful for today!

  1. I’m back in Denver, CO!!
  2. Being able to sleep in my own bed with Michael, the down comforter, and the cats in that order.
  3. The toddler who screamed and cried non-stop for the 2 1/2 hour plane trip back to Denver wasn’t the spawn of the Devil although she often sounded like she might be.
  4. I’m not sure who was happier; the cats or me when I walked in the door last night.
  5. Staying at my parent’s house in Chicago worked out pretty well. Didn’t trip the security system and it was nice have a large house to ourselves.
  6. Got my dad’s Internet service set up so I had wifi Internet access while I was there.
  7. My husband’s family were so welcoming and gracious. I genuinely enjoyed being with them.
  8. The memorial service for my mother-in-law gave me some closure on her passing.
  9. The beautiful things Mary’s primary nurse caretaker told me about how much it meant to her to be with Mary. I hear so many stories about what a difficult job it is to care of chronically ill people and hearing someone tell me how much the experience meant to them was incredibly heart-opening.
  10. Had a lot of fun with my brother-in-law’s kids. They’re both really nice, fun kids.
  11. Nothing creates perspective faster than attending a funeral or memorial service. It’s sobering but it sure reminded me of what really counts in life and in my case in what I do through my work.
