Another week of progress. Learning to enjoy the journey, the bliss of forward motion – the destination is not a guarantee and re-routes are inevitable.

Finding a great audiobook just when I need to spend a whole day sewing.

The final stretch of getting out of debt. The closer I get the less the setbacks bother me. I chose the long route but in the best company. I wouldn’t trade these furry companions for anything.

A hot shower in the dark when the power goes out. Thankful to start the day warm, and even more thankful when the heat kicks back on. The sudden thanks for light, heat, work, and daily fortunes usually taken for granted.

Another week with all who are important still by my side. One sick kitty on the mend. Thankful for the vet who eased our worries, as well as the meds we have in case the cold does not ease over the weekend.

That feeling when your body hits the bed when you are truly exhausted. Absolute bliss. No alarm on Saturday morning. No alarm on Sunday either.

Finally a Sunday to just sit back and enjoy. What promise an empty day holds.
