It’s a bit of a smoky Sunday, hopefully the smoke dissipates soon. #5DailyGratitudes: getting the garden planted, sleeping deeply, so much good family time, time for reflection, Sunday adventures.

Happy Sunny Saturday. It’s planting day! #5DailyGratitudes: the first cup of coffee, a little quiet time, recalling the family history, my funny kids, exchanging knowledge

It’s Friday! #5DailyGratitudes: big friendly dogs, gardening season, the long weekend, time with my family, having a great sleep.

The weekend is here, and I have day 2 of a migraine headache… however, here are my #5DailyGratitudes: New plant friends, a table full of seed packets, delicious coffee, a quiet house, gentle rainfall

CW: small garter snake

#5DailyGratitudes: surprise snakes on the way to our destination (just a tiny garter snake trying to be a brave boy and scare us off), my furry alarm clock, tomato plants, leafed out trees, my daughters who are very funny.

#5DailyGratitudes: homecomings, my co-worker family, being inspired after Comic Expo, spring’s arrival, an install date for my solar panels.

It’s dirt delivery day! #5DailyGratitudes: garden dirt, Expo day 2, great friends, helpers, reunions

It’s Comic Expo set up day! #5DailyGratitudes: having a helper for setting up, my booth buddy, lists of lists, finding lost items, caffeine.

Good morning. I was up in the dark and took this photo of the mountains for you four hours later (you’re welcome) #5DailyGratitudes: enjoying a quiet coffee and listening to the birds, my marvellous grown-up daughters, a lunch date with a friend, starting the packing for Calgary Expo, signs of spring

#5DailyGratitudes: taking PK out for a walk, the birds singing, three days until comic expo, family dinners, support from so many plays #CatsOfMastodon

Pictured is the before and after of taking my cat for a walk, mere moments after taking her outside she is back at the door ready to go again

The snow returns just as I want to plant wildflower seeds… #5DailyGratitudes: moisture, fuzzy slippers, a work from home day, a warm cup of coffee in my hands, the happy feeling of learning new things.

It’s Wednesday! #5DailyGratitudes: Having things work out the way I hoped they would, the misty view from my office, 8 days until Comic Expo, making spreadsheets (I never thought I would say that), someone to cook dinner tonight

#5DailyGratitudes: the lengthening days, 9 days until comic expo, cats in boxes, watching the sunrise, the first coffee #CatsOfMastodon

10 Days until Calgary Comic Expo! #5DailyGratitudes: figuring out the problem with my cricut, my supportive family, a reduction in local drama, getting outside in the spring weather, feeling the excitement building

It’s a sunny Sunday. #5DailyGratitudes: walks along the Weaselhead, birds singing in the trees, chickadees, muddy shoes, blue skies

It’s Friday! I have so much work to do, both at my day job and getting ready for comic expo. Trying to find some moments of peace amongst the hustle. #5DailyGratitudes: my beautiful girls, my space, delicious coffee, my music, my guy - who is never last.

It’s Friday Eve! #5DailyGratitudes; my family who support whatever I’m trying next, walks in my neighbourhood, moose sightings(!), holding hands, 2 weeks until Comic Expo!!!

It’s a wonderful Wednesday. Last day of classes at the uni and I suspect chaos will reign as the students celebrate. #5DailyGratitudes: the end of a long winter term, the beautiful sunrise, an early morning coffee date with my fella, planning the dirt delivery for my container garden, hugging my mom.
