Gratitude

I am blessed in my life and have received much.

Five things to be grateful for today:

1) Peace on American soil.
2) Shiny black open-toed heels.
3) Chocolate chip cookies (I intend to eat one later today).
4) Sherbet (haven't had it lately but it's just good, you know?)
5) The Beatles

A few more just because:

6) Being employed
7) Public libraries
8) The awesomeness that is the Mills College pool (and hot tub)
9) Oakland's beauty, diversity, urban parts, parks, and lakes
10) Close friends who are due with their first babies in October (throwing one a baby shower on Sat complete with obstacle course game, and the other a work baby shower on Tuesday). I'm happy just thinking of your preggo bellies :)
