Counting…

We all have choices in life and for the most part, how we spend our days and ultimately, our lives, is directly dependent upon the choices we make. So…today, instead of of counting my bills (oh, I will -just not right this minute), I’m going to count my blessings. I don’t want to think of how negativity might spoil my chances of having an absolutely brilliant day! So, here is today’s Top 10 Reasons why I’m a happy crab:)

1. a kitchen with windows that don’t open – but do let in the beautiful sunlight!
2. a laundry room – I don’t have to listen to the whirrrrrrrr of the washer and dryer
3. a washer and dryer! – no, my clothes don’t smell as wonderful as they did when I dried them in the sun at my parents’ home. Then again, I don’t have to plan my wash days around the weather, either!
4. a cluttered kitchen – cluttered because we have lots of food, a composter, and modcons like a microwave and a coffee maker
5. lots of sheets to wash – they come with the pre-requisite bed
6. dirt-y wooden floors – because beautiful, bountiful gardens will cost you something! 
7. cauliflower ears – because I have 4 sisters, a fabulous mother, an equally fabulous mother-in-law and wonderful friends. I talk to as many of them as I possibly can, as often as I can.
8. tired feet – because I have a job.
9. a tired, happy heart - because the list goes on and on.
