what a week!

it was a great one. i'm thankful for walks with sprocket in the morning, that i was able to skip run 1-walk 2 and go right to run 1-walk 1, and that i have my favourite professor again! oh, and i must not forget the fact that it was -25 on thursday and is now about 0!

getting back in the rhythm of life

thankfully, my new course starts today!

finding a way to appreciate the cold

you can actually appreciate the cold weather in calgary much more fully if you haven't felt it for 3 days. that was me yesterday. the cool air felt wonderful against my skin and the sun was shining...it gave me energy! just what i needed after being sick!

as the new year starts...

tonight is the start of 2010 and i am home sick. while i dislike being sick, i am grateful that i have a warm house to rest in, and a wonderful husband that cares for me.

happy 2010!

the start of something new

for many people, new year's is a time to try new things. i share that desire.

2010 is the start of something new for me. well, potentially, many things! the start of a new outlook, the start of a new discipline, and the start of a new hope. and the start of a new blog.

i have created this blog for many reasons...to express my ideas and write creatively...to demonstrate a heart of thankfulness...to nourish my character to blossom...to develop my own unique skill and style of writing...to encourage and inspire.

some posts may be just a word. some may be paragraphs. and some may be more words than i'm entitled to in one day! i hope that each post shares a step of my journey towards gratitude...

welcome to my journey. thank you for travelling with me.

you are my first step!
