We ordered wine using one of those online services. First bottle. Delish!

Seriously. Miles missed that important day during cat school where they reviewed “cats don’t like water.” #introducingmiles

My November photo project was a success. I’m glad my bestie @spclkaye joined me in the challenge. I didn’t take photos everyday. Some things felt more personal than others. I did realize that I am ever so blessed with an abundant life, a life I share with many lovely and wonderful people. I knew this, but the intentional practice of documenting the moments really shines a spotlight on it. Sometimes it hard to choose just one moment. Also being mindful everyday helps me focus in on what is ultimately important to me. #gratnov17

My last gratitude post for this project. Cheddar. I’m grateful my friend adopted you. I’m grateful you are spunky. I’m sad that an illness will end your life early. But mostly I grateful you landed in my friend’s loving arms. You have a lovely house with an older dog friend. You have good food and so much love. I’m grateful you were rescued and can live out what time you have left knowing love and care. Please friends. Spay and neuter. We have the power to stop this cycle. Adopt, don’t shop and spay and neuter. It’s that simple. As grateful as I am for rescues. We have the power to put an end to cats being born on the streets where life is hard and preventable diseases spread. Cheddar is amazing- after his Street life, he is living like a king, and I am grateful for that. #cheddarisbetter #gratnov17

(11/28) I’m grateful for the very long nap I just took. I didn’t sleep well last night and I’m fighting a cold or an allergy. Normally I just push, push, push. Today. Today I napped. I feel better. As we enter this busy season, I’m grateful I chose self care. Dinner can be simple and the chores can be reprioritized. #gratnov17

(11/26) I’m grateful today for the chill morning, time to work on catching up on email, reviewing the calendar, and getting holiday correspondence begun. The next there weeks kick into high gear and don’t stop. I’m grateful I was organized last year and that I’m in good health as we get set. I love all the good cheer and the beautiful Nutcracker performance, but the pace is at times grueling. So I’m grateful for today— that I could get a jump start and still have time to visit with a friend! It’s all about balance. I’m grateful I’m getting better at achieving balance. #gratnov17

(11/24) I’m grateful for an evening at the Ohio Theater. I appreciate living in a city with access to the Arts and a thriving arts culture. Also the weather isn’t horrible— so it was a pleasant walk from the car. #gratnov17 #ohiotheater #christmascarol
