Things I’m grateful for or that I’ve appreciated today:

  1. My nice warm bed, with it’s duvet, pillows and comfy mattress.
  2. Breakfast cereals.
  3. Hot coffee. My coffee maker.
  4. Realising that I don’t need or really want an Aeropress.
  5. Finding a video of Lucky Me by Sarah Slean. It’s a bit hard to watch, at first, but the song itself is well worth it. Listen closely to the lyrics.
  6. I’m off work all day, and for the next 3 days too. 4 days off straight. Fantastic.
  7. Wenna. She’s getting more and more to grip with being able to open doors. Last night, she figured out to use her feet as opposed to her head to get the door open. I’m really reminded of her when I see a Canada goose.
  8. A tasty satsuma.
  9. Last night’s insights.
  10. The lie in I allowed myself this morning.
  11. A lovely warm shower this morning.
  12. Being aware of the subtle criticism that I knew would be extended to me at some point today, because I didn’t go play happy families last night.
  13. Ignoring said criticism. I did what was right for me last night, not what was right for someone else. And I’m very proud of myself for having done that! exclaim
  14. Not having to spend ages at the table playing family.
  15. Centaury, and deciding to take it.
  16. The photos I took of mom’s Oxalis. I’m particularly proud of this one. I’d love to get into macro photography.
  17. The photos I took of the Azalea. I’ll get them uploaded soon.
  18. Laughing at some lolcats. And introducing Nat to them.
  19. 5 days after the present was opened, I still have chocolate. Coffee flavoured chocolate at that. Nothing beats Green & Blacks though. Their Espresso bar is amazingly rich.
  20. Irfanview has really helped me adjust some colours automatically today. I can now upload the azalea pictures. I’ve got v 4.10 now, with the plugins, and it’s amazing what this little programme can do!
  21. Hot fruit tea.
  22. Realising that I don’t really want for much.
  23. The battery charger. And the digital camera. I’m going out with The French tomorrow, and I want to try to get some pics.
  24. Passing on knowledge.
  25. Getting the Azalea pictures online.
  26. Getting some pictures of Clobyn online too.
  27. Finding a ready made lightbox. My bookcase. It’s while melamine, and it seems to work well.
  28. Not dropping all the books on the floor when I took them off the bookcase.
  29. The French was still up when I called him to make arrangements for tomorrow.
  30. Playing with Wenna.
  31. I get to have a bit of a lie in tomorrow.

Things I want to manifest:

  1. A clubcard.

Things I’ve done for others:

  1. Helped Nat rip some music.
  2. Guided Nat through backing up a legally owned DVD. It took over an hour, but I actually quite enjoyed it. I love imparting knowledge to other people.
