What Are You Grateful For Today?

Hugs from my fellow self-quarantiner. ?

Board games and puzzles.

This may seem like an odd thought but I'm grateful my Grandparents aren't here to see this. (So sorry Dad has to witness this awful situation)

Feeling connected while isolated. ?

Sharing laughs through the miles.

Changing of the seasons.

Lots to be grateful for!
 
All the unsolicited practice I've had these last several years in learning how to recognize wild edibles, how to grow and preserve food, how to productively overthink everything and be prepared for damn near anything, for the rabbit holes that led me to awareness and realities that I never knew I needed to tap into, and for all the so-called super weird "woo woo" shit that helped(s) me be more at ease within my own meat-coated skeleton.

After several decades of deep observation both inward and outward, I suppose we don't always recognize or realize that we're always in a classroom of some sort, nor do we always grasp the fact that everyone is a teacher, and a student, and those pop quizzes that we don't/can't foresee are still a bitch. I'd still rather have more recess, dammit. That whole dunce cap in the corner scene never was much fun.
 
That all THIS is happening in spring and not winter, so at least we get some sunshine.

That so far, I still have work and that I can do it from home.

That the situation has made me finally make a pantry that is stocked in basics very fast, project that I was delaying for a long time.

That my ballet studio made our classes live online and we still get some joy and exercise and sense of community in that.

That the people I love are all safe and healthy, so far.
 
basically for everything I have built with my life up to this point and some time to reflect and enjoy it all. I am pulled out of work, pulled out of my financial investments and pulled home where I should be, virus or no. As long as i made a good choice to keep working as long a s I did and didn't get exposed before I pulled the plug, I am grateful for my health, my wifes health, and some time away from the hustle of the past 30+ years. we miss our grandkids, both the born ones and the ones still being prepared as we speak. Our kids call everyday, and for that we are both thankful.
