Gratitude Monday

Today I am grateful for creature comforts:

• a gentle little yoga routine after a week away from it
• lemonade
• L getting an early release copy of the new book by his favorite author
• soy chai lattes
• quinoa tabbouleh at the healthy food store
• blue jeans and a super soft t-shirt
  
• a 5-day weekend starting on Wednesday
• the smell of fresh sheets on the bed
• a quiet apartment to myself for a little while
• a quiet nearly-empty library on my lunch break
• cool evening breezes

There's really so very little that I can control. But I worry it and worry it like a loose tooth that just isn't ready to come out. Creature comforts bring me back to my senses - smell, sound, sight, taste, touch - and the real world I inhabit.
