practicing gratitude ~ day 3

Today, I'm grateful for . . . 

• beautiful, rolling dirt roads in SC
• feeling vulnerable and not freaking out (completely)
• guitar
• Mom who doesn't understand but leaves a nice card anyways
• the way my Dad wears PJ's all Sunday long and bounces to music with his spatula in his hand
• Etta James
• my sister calling me - gonna visit her soon! 
• swing dance
• Brene Brown
• asking a question to a group of strangers
• Internet
• the way fall clears the air
• the way it's eighty degrees and fall ( SC :) )
• best girl friends and talking for over two hours getting caught up
• being able to watch a good friend change and grow, and getting to talk about that with her
• being able to grow
• self help sections in a secondhand book stores (there are gems! but no way I'm buying "The Secret")
• having a roommate in the spring complete with a cat!
• using exclamation points
• finding two cool places that are hiring - 2nd&Charles and Starbucks
• having access to a car today
