Ten Things (in no particular order)

I am grateful for....

  1. Having finished my two night duties for this roster. They were nice easy shifts too!
  2. Coffee dates before second night duty. This serves a dual purpose. One is to chat with a good friend about the the universe and the other is to load up on Caffeine!
  3. That today is a beautiful sunny day which will motivate me to stay awake and not sleep the day away, but rather to head to the Wetlands and take some more photos so that I have more of a choice in which shot to send in to the photography comp.
  4. The life that "Frog" got to have before being squished by a car. Yep, little Frog that formerly visited us on the front veranda and had his photo taken by me just days ago, was found to be in a very deceased state yesterday morning as I returned from work. R.I.P Frog. You lived a good life.
  5. The life that "Black Boy", one of our four little fish, had before dying of natural causes. Yep, little Black Boy that formerly shared a tank with "Specks", "White Boy" and "Big Red" was found to be in a very deceased state this morning as I returned from work. R.I.P Black Boy. You lived a good life.
  6. My friends and the time I get to spend with them. Old friends and new friends. An excellent balance that keeps me learning more about myself every day.
  7. My book collection...... coupled with my magical BUILT IN BOOK SHELVES!
  8. My husband who is always willing to lend a helping hug.
  9. My daughter, who keeps me in one place, both in mind and body.
  10. My camera. ..... cause its my most favorite material possession.

There you go Michelle!

Poor frog! RIP various near-kristy-creatures.

Good luck with the photo competition. You'll get a prize, I'm sure.
