giving thanks

10 things for which i feel amazingly blessed, nurtured, seen, known and loved

• hot, hot baths
• books and authors
  
• the crisp, cutting sound of the sun setting over the great salt lake
• wood burning fires
• toe nail polish
• a 2 minute snuggle just before bed
• waking up to the sound of a coyote chorus
• help carrying in the groceries
• the amazing scent of freshly mowed grass bottled for me
• scads of family; laughing, chatting, crying, ignoring, playing, living, loving--as best they can
