Your comment warmed my heart and made me smile. After a conversation with my daughter this morning, and in the vein of your post here and my reflections on life lately, I decided to write a post on blessings. Thank YOU for the inspiration.<br /><br />Blessings upon your day,<br /><br />MichelleMichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13406126581225348871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2642174337877516716.post-68847594701754180312009-05-03T08:49:00.000-07:002009-05-03T08:49:00.000-07:00I just love this list!

The crystal and picnic basket are beautiful - what great finds. <br /><br />I am counting my frugal luxuries this weekend... great garage sales, sunshine, my very affectionate kitten who keeps licking my nose, watching old Star Trek episodes on Saturday morning with my partner, while drinking coffee and eating eggs and homemade bread. My basil and sage seedlings are growing. And my partner bought me new summer pjs (pj sets were on sale for $9.99 at Zellers - our Canadian version of Target). I am constantly noticing frugal luxuries now!Saver Queenhttp://saverqueen.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2642174337877516716.post-39401472625866378872009-05-02T18:24:00.000-07:002009-05-02T18:24:00.000-07:00I am constantly amazed at the way the thoughts of ...I am constantly amazed at the way the thoughts of kindred spirits alight on the same path. Your post echoes so many of my reveries lately. <br /><br />After my prayers at night, I have been working on starting a new daily habit. I count thirty things that are blessings in my life. The ones I treasure the most have no price (they're free) and are the most cherished (priceless, as you say, Tracey). Hugs from my husband, random loving touches as he walks by me, requests for hugs from my daughter several times a day, the way she leans into my hand when I walk by her as she is homeschooling and stroke her hair, singing songs together while we're driving in the car, a perfect rose blooming on a less-than-perfect bush, the rich-as-thick-cream purr and silky fur of a well-loved kitty, nourishing food on the table for every meal, enough food stocks in the pantry to share with friends who are struggling right now, a card from a treasured friend letting me know how she treasures me (!), a small stray kitten choosing our home as a refuge, a snowy white egret in flight viewed from our back deck, a homey classic movie starring Jeanne Crain on a rainy Saturday afternoon, curling up with an old favorite book under a soft throw with a cup of steaming tea . . . <br /><br />Yes, my husband's pay has been cut. Yes, he's working two jobs. Yes, we have to careful with money. And yes, I'm so grateful that through it all God not only meets our physical needs, but also meets our spiritual and emotional ones, so very well. So many blessings, so many moments to treasure, so much to be thankful for. I can only thank God for loving me enough to gift me with so much. <br /><br />Blessings on your day,<br /><br />MichelleMichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13406126581225348871noreply@blogger.com
