Today we're celebrating...

Every Friday we talk about what we are cheering about this week. Here's my list of celebrations:

  • Our older son, Brendan, is going on his first company trip to Canada next month! He's so excited about it and he will be able to go to Disney World free.
  • My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary yesterday. We are so blessed to have each other.
  • My author friend, Linda Black, wrote lovely reviews for two of my books. I also wrote reviews for her amazing children's stories. The titles of Linda's books are: The Adventures of Boots and the Giant Snowball, A Porpoise for Cara, and S. T. O. P. Bullying. They're all wonderful books that I recommend.
  • I saw a grey deer in our yard-I've never seen a grey deer before, so he startled me a little. He was mostly grey, with a slight brown tinge to his coat.
  • I exercised 3 days this week. Still not reaching my goals, but I'm making the baby steps!
    If you'd like to adopt Louey and his enchanting story here's where you can find him.

  1. Those are all amazing things to be thankful for. I think you and your husband are just sweet. I need to exercise more. I am just so lazy. So, good for you for getting in 3 workouts this week.

    1. It's hard to be dedicated and motivated, Murees. I'm not nearly as good as my sister is about it. And my workouts are short, so I'm sure they're not like the ones most people do. Take things one day at a time and see if you can do a little bit. Then before you know it, you'll be getting lots done.
      You can do it, you'll surprise yourself!

  2. Those are all good things to celebrate! And with exercising, baby steps are good. You don't want to go too hard and wind up injuring yourself so you can't do it at all for weeks.

    1. Thank you, Rhonda! I didn't know either. Wish I had an I-phone or something like that where I could have gotten a picture. He was pretty and he was right in front of the kitchen window so I got a good look at him!
      Thanks for the anniversary wishes. Have a great weekend.

  6. Wow you have lots of great things to celebrate this week. I don't think I've ever seen a grey deer either. How cool. I've been to Canada once with my mom for her job. It was nice. Happy Anniversary!

  7. Thank you, Dani. Yes, the grey deer was really unusual. I wonder if he was an elder statesman in his group, or something. He was really handsome. Thanks for the Anniversary wishes. I'm very blessed.
