This Saturday I'm grateful for... verandahs


Here in Maxabellaland, Saturday is traditionally a sport, shop, sort the clothes, sweep the floors, strangle the Tsunamis (insert other 's' words here - no pun intended) kinda day. But on Maxabella loves... I thought it would be grounding to make Saturday my 'grateful' day.

This Saturday I'm grateful for...

1. The view from my verandah. I'm sitting here right now and above is the view from my laptop (don't you wish I was a better photographer!!). It's impossible to sit on my front verandah and not feel like life is good. (Of course, all I can really see is that the car still has the spare tyre on the back wheel after a month... but still... life is still good.)

2. Green tea. I'm 2 months sober off the diet cokes now and it's all thanks to green tea. I'm very pleased to have broken a 20 year habit so smoothly. Special thanks goes out to green tea with mint; you are comfort in a cup.

3. Comments. I swear I'm not sucking up. But there is something about reading an extension to my blog post that just makes my whole day. Food for thought and food for the soul. I love 'em and I'm grateful for them every single time.


So, what's making you smile today?
