Thinking on thanks — the front porch addition.
It is so lovely this afternoon that I am writing this post out on my porch.
See.
These are four photos taken in rapid succession with no thought behind them . . . other than twisting my laptop this way and that.
Well, I did put thought into the first one of me. I was trying for the cross-eyed look.
Seems I only have given myself a raging headache and managed to appear more zombie than zaney.
Curses.
Ten things of thankful this second day after Valentines.
10. We never did lose power during the winter event last week.
9. We survived the Valentine’s Day earthquake.
Having just gotten into bed, there started this loud rumbling and shaking.
Okay. I told my husband that wasn't a large truck rumbling by. #Georgia #earthshake

8. I woke up at 5 a.m. for a race in Athens on Saturday — the morning after all the earthquake hoopla. Got up in the dark and stuck my head outside to the cold and wind. And got back into bed.
It was wonderful. I didn’t even have guilt feelings about not running.
7. Am going to run later today with a friend. It’s so lovely out. And thank goodness by now my headache from crossing my eyes has vanished.
6. The birds are chirping madly.
5. Had the most fun watching the cardinals eat from the feeder during the snow. This is also how I know that I am officially an old person.
Not only do I get excited watching birds eat. I take their picture and post it on my blog.
4. Good health.
3. Good neighbors that make me smile because they are excited about their new puppy. Who is very adorable, btw.
2. That I had a hot dog for lunch. Though I might be rethinking my thanks on that since I’m running in about a half an hour.
1. That I was given another week — to listen to the birds, write a bit, eat a hot dog and link up with the Ten Things of Thankful gang.
