It’s hot, I am cranky, and there is too much going on that makes me sad and mad – I think it’s time to take a break and find things that make me smile. In no particular order: friends who drive for an hour or take the bus just to sit socially distanced on the patio with me, giggly babies, random flowers popping up in the middle of the yard, Scrabble games, my husband, videos of people dancing, home-grown tomatoes, people who call just to check up on me, shade in the sunshine, daisies, naps, fresh-baked banana bread, people doing nice things for others, a cool breeze coming in from the patio, sleeping through the night, finding something in my pocket that I didn’t expect, and more things I haven’t remembered yet. How about you? What makes you smile?
