THESE THINGS MAKE ME HAPPY

It was 52 degrees here in Fairbanks, Alaska today.  

As I was outside walking I was overwhelmed 

with a "happy" feeling that spring is here.  

There's other things that make me happy too...

• I got a haircut before things closed down
• We haven't run out of toilet paper
• Bella Grace magazines
• Zoom-with-the-family-celebration for Dave's birthday

• Handmade face masks

• $1.99 gasoline. We haven't seen gasoline this cheap here for probably a decade. 
• Daffodils

• Easter celebration, even though it was very different this year
• Visit with the family on Easter...with social distancing

• Drive-throughs and pick-ups for meals when I get tired of cooking, which is fairly often.
• FaceTime, Marco Polo and Zoom apps
• Connecting with the LifePoint Church family by Zoom
• Airline credits on trips we had to cancel
• Longer daylight hours
• Water boots for walking in melting snow.
• Sunshine and 50 degrees
• A snow-free driveway.
• Isolation Survival Kit (created by Jami)

• Connecting with the granddaughters

We can’t change how things are, but we can change how we will approach today. And yes, an attitude can spread. Begin with us.  Seth Godin
