Today I’m grateful for…

working the phones
I was kind of mad at first: for some reason my manager insisted that I not work the floor today. Anyway, it’s absolute nuts on the sales floor and the phones are pretty quiet, so I’m glad to sit in the back and work the phones. I even had someone call in who remembered who I was and was glad to talk to me. I get to write my gratitude journal entry for the day and chill a bit. :-)

Free coffee and a good book from the library
I go downstairs from the courthouse to the little Southlake library. It is a nice little place. Southlake is such a rich town that they can afford a very nice library. I paid for a card, but I get to check out new books. They even give you free coffee!

a good night’s sleep
I took my brown pill last night. It makes me sleep like a baby. I even got up on time even though I slept through all of my alarms. I didn’t sleep well the night before. It makes a big difference to get a good night’s rest. I’m grateful.

friendship
I’m not particularly outgoing. I score medium-high on extraversion and medium-high on agreeableness, so finding and maintaining friends has always been challenging. I’m glad for the friendships that I’ve managed to forge.

for my personality
I like my openness to experience most of all. It’s my defining trait. I love to think about complex things, to learn about anything, to visit museums and art galleries, to read books and watch movies, to listen to NPR
