gratitude # 516 – 537.

Judah’s “I’m at school” dance

back to the gym

no cobras on the “cobra street”

Kid A on my iPod

music so familiar I ache inside

a body sore all over

the electricity held out for three loads of laundry and a batch of cookies yesterday

care package candy: peanut M&M’s and Starbursts and Snickers

shopping on Commercial Street

a pair of earrings that cost a dollar

filling out NCAA tournament brackets with David — the winner chooses our next date-night restaurant

a Skype appointment with my counselor

Amie’s new sunglasses

Martha got her plane ticket!

pictures of our nephew

the lengths my father-in-law will go to send his daughter-in-law a book

David and I reached number 539 in our gratitude notebook today

eyes to see

nighttime auto rides with my family

there is no pollen here in South Asia

crying on Maggie’s bed

sitting together in this loneliness
