Gratituesday 1.9.18 - Get Up & Go!
The weather this week around the country has been brutal. Super cold, snowy and windy. Luckily I primarily work from home so I was able to stay warm inside without too much trouble. My cat, Maxie is happy to use me as his personal heater and to be honest, it's nice to have him purring on my lap as I binge-watch 'The Crown' and 'The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.'
Today, however, it was a balmy 43 degrees! So, I jumped out of bed and took myself to see 'The Shape of Water.' It won the Golden Globe for Best Picture and I have not been to the movies in forever. As Elisa sat on the edge of the tank eating her lunch with the Amphibian Man, I ate my egg sandwich and sipped my coffee. It was the perfect Artist's Date! When I left the theater it was sunny and bright as the snow melted on the Upper Westside. Lots of positive energy around me, so it's the perfect time to reflect and share. Join me, will ya?
