Gratituesday 3.16.21 - Ready for Spring!

After a LONG year, we’ve also had a tough winter. I can finally feel a change in the air, but gosh, I am ready for Spring! There is a sense of possibility and hope at the end of Winter. However after the dumpster fire that was 2020, I think we can all use some hope and possibility, don’t you?

I have long shared my frustration about not feeling settled. I finally found some personal stability and then COVID hit. I know we can see a light at the end of the tunnel, but I’m back in limbo and I don’t like it.

I know I’m a privileged individual and we’re talking first world problems. But I’ve worked so hard, and this constant anticipation is draining. You know what’s best for this minor venting? A bit of perspective and listing all of the good, as well as the areas I have control to change. Welcome to Gratituesday and my weekly lists. If you care to join me, the comment section is always open below. Off we go!
