Five things I am grateful for today

1. The heat came on this morning! In NYC, there are heat laws that govern when the heat gets turned on. It finally got chilly enough for them to start up the boiler. The radiator just started hissing and I can smell that distinct radiator smell. Ooooooh, looking forward to the apartment being warm when I get home tonight! Now it's fall!

2. The scent of this candle.


3. Dancing with long-time friends and making new friends through dance.

4. Warm things...my favorite herbal tea (anything with licorice root) & Grandma's heart quilt.



5. Some time to sew with this fun Halloween fabric. I'm not usually into novelty fabric, but this was too cute to pass up. May have been the little kitty and ballerina costumes...


What are you grateful for today?

Hi Andrea! That's a great list :) I could smell the radiator heating up as I read.
Thanks for stopping by!

...a little time to myself...

Thank you for your thoughtful new year's wishes. I will be spending the day with my family tomorrow and putting together my own list of what to be thankful for - like new friends!

I'm certainly grateful for the beautiful area where I live and my little students who brighten my day. (ps-we also turned the heat on today!)

I'm grateful for blue skies and brilliantly colored autumn leaves.
