It is Tuesday, and I am grateful …
... that I am halfway through the marking.
... that I’ve had a lot of sleep.
... that the adapter I bought actually fits the way it should.
... that my crabby mood makes me push the gospel of global warming in an unreceptive forum.
... for the internet and connectivity.

my friends who show up in my photography… especially when they are so appreciative of the finished product
artists who get it
our right to assemble publicly and say what we feel called to say

It is Monday, and I am grateful …
... for my biggest single sale so far.
... that despite still being a little sore from the fall I could do most of the gym class.
... for a chance to stand at a whiteboard with a marker and talk science. This doesn’t happen enough.
... for the lovely thunderstorm this afternoon.
... that I got the new connector. Not sure if it will work, but now I don’t have to think “I have to go to the shop some day.”

It is Sunday, and I am grateful …
... for a day of rest.
... that commentators’ worries about “political violence” include such extreme acts as throwing chairs at meetings. It is too fresh in my memory that political violence once meant blood and fire.
... for fresh peaches from the tree.
... for the internet an Wikipedia, quick sources of information.
... for just keeping up with the demands of NaNoWriMo today.

I am so grateful for yesterday’s Marraige Equality event… and participating in it wholeheartedly
I am so grateful this is the last performance of the weekend for Boom Boom Room. (Perhaps the last performance ever… for me)
I am so grateful for the blue sky this morning
I am so grateful my parents have a facebook, although it is making me laugh… ridiculous… eh?
I am so grateful for Emma, who is correcting me, suggesting different word choices, and for Katherine who is chiming in her critique and call for excellence.
I am so grateful for a decent night’s sleep.
I am so grateful for my knee pads. YAY!
I am so grateful.

I am grateful for a peaceful day spent with my children and RailRoad Man. Nice to just hang out this afternoon.
I am grateful for the Demonstration for Marraige Equality Sam, Katherine and I attended this morning in Downtown Bakersfield. We covered all four corners at a main intersection downtown. It was a very festive atmosphere, felt like a party. I met many new people and connected with lots of friends, even got some friends to show up who hadn’t planned to attend.
I am grateful for the performance of “Boom Boom” last night. Brittany pulled off her role and I, as usual, supported her. I feel sorry for her and all she has lived through in this role, hopefully she will grow from it.
I am grateful for the fun at the “Coming Art” out show last night. Again, photos coming SOON!
I am grateful my camera is working well again. That was quite the withdrawal period I went through without it!
I am grateful.
