Thankfulness Thursday 2019 | no. 1

22:14



I don't know if it's a good morning, or a good night where you are, here it's 9:30 PM and dark as dark can be. I wrote most of this post last night because I wasn't sure how alive I'd be tonight (hello long work day), but I'm popping back in to change a few words if need be, choose a picture - you know, essentials.

I woke up yesterday with, as always, a list of things I had to do before work. And one of the things on my list was write that post for Thankfulness Thursday. My dear friend and fellow word-lover Grace Ann does these posts every Thursday in November, and last year I joined her for the first time. It was so fun and therapeutic I wanted to do it again! And just today, she announced that she's taking the series to Instagram. I'm still going to write about it here though, but a little differently than last year.

I think ya'll can relate but I love to have my blog posts polished. Written. Mulled-over a hundred times. Edited. Formatted to perfection. <<< that's my process in a nutshell, and while it's a good process, I know there is also a place for showing up as messy and clumsy as I feel. So what my plan is. . .AHEM (my non-plan) not to write this year's posts with my usual process. No fancy formatting or overthinking. No writing weeks in advance. Just me, showing up no sooner than Wednesday night, and writing what comes.

Okay I said it. No plan.
Deep breath, K.


this week, I think, calls for just a simple list of things that have meant something to me over the past week.


- people who look out for me
- finally hiking a mountain I've wanted to for so long
- CUTE MUGS AT GOODWILL
- crisp, fall weather
- surprise texts from my long distance friend because she has news that can't wait
- lllooonnggg email threads
- that written list of things I want to try this winter


however this day has left you I hope you have moment to breathe, enjoy the sunlight, and send up a
thank You for this world prayer.
