“Do something today that your future self will thank you for.” — Sean Patrick Flanery

Hello there.  I am so excited!  It’s Day 19, and there is only one more sleep until I go on leave!  💃🏽

Two Things I Am Grateful For

1. My exercise bike and mini trampoline arrived today.  I am so happy.  I was so disappointed initially because I couldn’t find the screws for the handlebars.  Turns out they were already screwed into the area the handlebars had to be connected to.  I had a good laugh at myself.  I am really excited about building my fitness through 2025.  I am a bit nervous about the trampoline.  I have never owned one before, but I am looking forward to the challenge. I’m sure my body will be thanking me at the end of the year.
2. We will have Christmas lunch at my sister’s house this year as we have done for the past six years.  It has become our tradition.  She was supposed to go away for Christmas but her plans have changed to we will be all together again. 

One Moment of Joy

I was so amused by how curious the cats were about the box the bike came in. They ripped into the styrofoam, and, in the end, they looked like they had created a white Christmas for themselves. This experience reminded me to always stay curious and that sometimes the little things give the greatest pleasure. 

I had a second moment of joy today. I finally found a mouse to use with my computer, and it is silent! What a pleasure! The previous two mouses (?) that I have had would lag on my Mac regardless of how I adjusted the settings. This one arrived today, connected quickly, and there is no lagging, and, as I mentioned, it is silent.

That’s it from me today.  I am looking forward to an earlier night.  Hope you have had an amazing day.  Stay grateful 🙂

Bye for now.
