Lots of great things to be thankful for! I am sitting her looking out the front door at the beautiful land I live on. I feel blessed too! I need to mow but my sinuses are Horrible too!
ReplyDeleteSometime to combat sleepiness, I just go for a walk. When you get up and move it creates all those happy hormones that in sorts make the body high for a few moments.
ReplyDeleteWell your list made me smile :) Counting your blessings is a great way to put things into perspective even when somethings aren't going right!
