i’m grateful for today, so far. (i desperately need to remind myself…)

1. six and a half hours of unbroken sleep.
2. fresh cherries and pineapple slices in the refrigerator for breakfast.
3. an hour of calm reading time with coffee before work.
4. Lauren’s voice didn’t sound like a grating box of Lucky Brands, and she was glowing from her seven and a half hours of unbroken, albeit CR, sleep.
5. the resuscitation of a long forgotten mix on the way to work, with songs from a nostalgic, bygone era.
6. traffic at the I-95 merge kept me held up for awhile,  giving me even more time to enjoy that mix.
7. morning Zen chat with Wendy.
8. Chik-Patty Sandwich from Edge of the Hood on a full hour lunchbreak.
   (bonus: free sample of Reed’s Ginger Beer)
9. the amazing opportunities for patience and compassion presented by a last-minute phone call from my boss, the sudden loss of much-needed fonts, and the five-minute lag-time between the moment i press “print” and when the document actually prints.
10. dark chocolate-covered almonds.

and it’s only 3:14 in the afternoon.
