Day 26: #earth

Watching the episode of The Crown where Prince Philip gets obsessed with the moon landing--particularly of how the astronauts felt about seeing Earth from space--reminds me of how grateful I am for my sense of wonder at astronomical objects.

Day 24: #humor

I'm grateful for the sense of humor shown by the marketing team at my local grocery store--it makes a routine chore that much more interesting!

Day 17: #seasons

Now that I've spent a full year in Colorado, I'm getting used to the somewhat abrupt change in seasons--but they're always beautiful!

Day 14: #time

I am grateful for all the time the fellow members of my virtual thesis/dissertation accountability group spend working with me, commiserating with me, and supporting me!

Day 12: #beauty

I love flowers, but my late kitty had a habit of chewing on them (Subject seen here studiously pretending to be a still life painting until I go away), so I rarely got them. I'm grateful for seeing them in nature--and for the rare times my husband gets them for me!

Day 4: #music

My entire family sings and has played instruments, and I've been so grateful for the gift of music in my life. Even though my church choir is much smaller than the Mormon Tabernacle Choir shown here (from my visit to SLC this summer), I still love making a joyful noise!

Day 3: #love

My grandfather, who passed away last month, was one of the most loving people I have ever met. And everyone loved him in return: his students from the high school he taught math and coached football at for 30 years, his friends, and the immigrant women he taught English to after he retired. I am so grateful I got to know him as my grandfather.
Tagged is the library he was a founding board member of!

#growth

I sometimes struggle to feel like I'm actually accomplishing anything because I've taken so long on my dissertation, but putting this message up in the study room at my library to celebrate the 1 year anniversary of their new building made me realize just how much I've done!
(I actually wrote over 60,000 if you include notes)!

SaunteringVaguelyDownwards I'm actually going to combine this with day 2: #knowledge! 5y
