Celebrate The Small Things Time - It's Getting Cold Outside!

"Cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you, and give thanks continuously. And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude."

- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Time for Celebrating The Small Things Blog Post Again. I hope you all had a wonderful week and much to celebrate about. Here is my little list for this week:


I have been utterly grateful that the cold time of the year has not found us here in Florida until two days ago. This was so far a very warm November, and I am very grateful for that.

I am also grateful that the heater is in working order. Not that I am expecting to need it too often here, but I made it a point to try it out, just to be on the safe side. It is working well.

I think I am going to have to break down and buy one of my dogs a sweater. I am grateful that we have a large pet store in walking distance from our condo, and it allows the pets to come in, so I can try some on her. She has - unlike my other dog - a very short coat, which does not protect her much from the harsher wind and cold.

I have been writing like a mad woman, getting more articles out to various sites, writing short stories and working on the books. After a few days of dealing with family obligations, it felt really good to sit back down in front of the computer and let the words flow. There is nothing I'd rather do then write.
