Throughout the week I’ve felt grateful for: 

…Harvesting some of our grapes at last (about a week or so after those pictures were taken.) It’s been hard to be patient for them to ripen!
.
…How good the house smells when we bake sweet potatoes in the oven.
.
…Combining a bunch of old lists so we didn’t have so much list clutter around. Sounds funny, but it did make a big difference with my organizing efforts that day.
.
…Coming out of the dark, rainy night into our warm, cozy house.
.
…Getting things ready for the rainy season ahead. Jeff cleaned out the chimney, we harvested the last of the apples on our tree, and got some clean up done in the garden. It’s a good feeling to see our woodshed full of firewood!
.
…Giving our car a good cleaning and vacuuming after our trip for the festival last weekend.
.
…The relief that comes when you finally make a decision and then it feels so right. (You always wonder why it was so hard to make in the first place when it brings such a sigh of relief.)
.
…The feeling of bare feet on the grass after a rain. So refreshing and invigorating.
.
…The incredible progress that can be made when we tackle projects as a family. Jeff and I were just talking about how rather than working on our projects separately, we need to combine our efforts more often. We’re always so glad when we do.
.
…Being inspired by people’s stories of overcoming obstacles and listening to their inner voice.
