COVID-19 Is a Bummer – It Can’t Stop Good Things From Happening

Here are a few of the good things I witnessed or experienced today:

  • The honeysuckle is in full bloom and it’s fragrance is amazing. Grateful.
  • The birds that fly into my bird feeder didn’t get the social distancing memo (LOL). Their antics are a joy to behold.
  • The local supermarket is extending shopping hours from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Yippee. It’s a good sign.
  • A large black monarch butterfly landed on a dandelion near my patio. Beautiful, graceful, and a gift to me. Thanks, Monarch.
  • The times are tough, but we can help each other find a reason to smile, even if it is watching birds, a lizard, or a monarch butterfly. We’re another day closer to winning. Hang in there.

What I share are seemingly small and inconsequential things, but they are priceless to me.

Grateful for all the above.

COVID-19 Is a Bummer – It Can’t Stop Good Things From Happening

Here are a few of the good things I witnessed or experienced today:

  • It rained today in south Texas. A warm, soft rain. I went out for my walk, got soaked and loved every moment of it. I should have run barefoot through the puddles.
  • I had a Texas sized glass of refreshing iced tea to go with my lunch. Oh yes, it was very good.
  • On my to do list today: 1) listen to music that makes me sing along; 2) watch a movie this evening that makes me laugh; 3) Take 15 minutes to meditate in my sacred space. When I check off all three, I’ll say it’s been a great day.
  • The times are tough, but we can help each other find a reason to smile, even if it is the antics of a squirrel. We’re another day closer to winning. Hang in there.

Here are a few of the good things I witnessed or experienced today:

  • I met a new friend on my walk. He introduced me to two of his special friends, Tina Fay and Bailey. Tina Fay and Bailey are rescue dogs. Made my day.
  • Went to the Supermarket and I got paper towels, disinfectant spray and everything else on my list – Home Run!
  • A warm sun, gentle southerly breeze, and birds singing, nothing wrong with this painting and I’m sitting right in the middle of it.
  • Don’t know when it will happen, but it will happen and we’ll have a vaccine and treatment to tame the beast. We’re a day closer and tomorrow we’ll be another day closer. Hang in there.
