Late start...

Got a bit of a late start this morning - 7:38 am instead of 6:30 - 7 ish. Not so late. No eggs in a frame, though. Once in a while it's fun to really sleep in, but it has been a long time, so I am out of the habit. Happy that I can, though. Nice to not need to.

Sudoku is kicking my butt, lately! I appreciate the challenge, but seriously! I need to sneak in a few easy puzzles, just for kicks.

So, it's gray out there today - a perfect day to kick back and read or nap or delve into a project. A little colder so the streets and sidewalks are slick, so a nice long walk would be harder than I like. Maybe a little writing in my morning - other than this, of course. Oh, here comes the sun!

Here's a little activity to warm up your appreciation muscles. Page through your daily newspaper, and when you see bad news, appreciate that there are folks who are experiencing things that will help them to grow, or help them figure out what they would rather have or where they would rather be. But don't spend more than a second or two on the bad stuff. Look for good stuff - you should be able to skip most everything. When you see a nugget of good stuff, though, spend a little time there and see how it makes you feel. Anything that feels bad - move on quickly. There is no reason to read all that stuff. You will feel better if you don't. Don't you want to feel better?
