Gratitude for laughter, skills, selection and orbits
Today I am feeling grateful for four things. First, Jacob’s laughter. Andrea and I regularly comment that we have to get an updated version of his laughter on video because when he gets going when he is giddy, it is incredibly infectious. Tonight was no exception! Thanks, dude…
Second, Jacob’s new-found computer skills. I think I’m grateful. Double-edged sword. I have joked about Jacob being eventually able to hack my computer, etc, or that he has shown Nana things on her iPad. Well, Jacob has learned how to move the icons around on my phone, so he decided that all “his” apps should be on “his” screen (I have one screen where most of his games were). But “his” list has grown to include some of my games, like backgammon. So he just went into the folders where they were and moved them all over to the other screen. He’s seen me do it, and it’s not rocket science, but I was a bit surprised last night to find some of my favourites suddenly missing!
Third, it’s a bit weird, but I am grateful for living in Canada where there are selections of goods like at Ikea. Way too much time there this afternoon, to get only a handful of things, but the selection was nice.
Fourth, I am grateful for the moon. My blog earlier today for my goals was about the wish to get back into astronomy, and tonight’s moon was awesome. I ended up just doing a bit of naked-eye observing, but it was a clear moonrise today, hanging out there for all to see and enjoy.
That’s it for today! Onward in the journey…
