3 Things to Celebrate From My Day

Today has been challenging. I received some very depressing news about a friend who is like family to me and my heart broke upon learning what this news meant for her. I also learned some very distressing news about another friend who is close to my heart. If anything, both news served as a reminder of just how precious life is. We can’t take the time we have for granted, and we can’t take our friends for granted. Don’t wait to tell people you care about that you love them and be sure to show them that love as often as you can. You never know when the last time you see them really is the last.

I also received news this evening that means my youngest has to miss school tomorrow to get tested for COVID. It was only a matter of time.

Meanwhile, here are three things to celebrate from my day...even though I am not in a very celebrating mood this evening.

1. We got a break from the rain today and I was able to do some yard work.

2. I found yet another mistake in the haunted houses book I have been editing. I don’t think I did very good research back then.

3. I tried a recipe in a cookbook I have been reading and it was good.
