November brings a chill in the air and the start of the holiday gatherings of family and friends. I can’t believe I am down to the last two month of my challenge to find happiness and feel gratitude every day. I hope you join with me in the comments or your own blog in this challenge. No matter how small there is always a little good in even the worst day.
I feel like I have to make this a fairly quick short and sweet post. One reason is I am exhausted and afraid I will fall asleep before I am done. And the other is so I don’t get sidetracked talking about my depression.
It was a cold day, but once again I did not have to venture out much in it. I did get out in the cold to go and fix my Dad some dinner, And on the way there I mailed a Christmas card. No, believe me I don’t normally send out cards this early but this was a special request.
The local news website had a story on a little boy with neuroblastoma who may not make it to Christmas this year who wanted a card shower for early Christmas cards. So I went into my craft corner and created a little something to send. This had two benefits. It made me happy to get ink on my hands and I was grateful to have a very healthy daughter. It also made me happy to try to bring a little bit of joy to this boy’s difficult last days.
That is all I have in me tonight. Sinuses are killing me, and I am so close to sleep… yawn! I hope you remember to find your happiness and feel your gratitude. Have a wonderful night/day!
