Gratitude Post #2

Here are five things I'm grateful for today:

1. A warm house with a fireplace. I know I had a mega-long post about my gratitude for my house previously, but on days like this when there's a never-ending blizzard, you just have to be doubly grateful.

2. Luxury bedsheets. I wrote about my sheets before, I know. But once again today, I had a great sleep in, and I really appreciated waking up to something as luxurious as 1200 thread count Egyptian cotton sheets.

3. Exercise Videos. Clearly, I love exercise videos. But they took on a special meaning to me today when I realized that if you were a gym-goer and that was your only source of exercise, you wouldn't be getting any today. Nobody in my neighborhood has even left their house today that I could see as we are snowed in. I also love the variety of the workouts, the instructors (who are the best out there), and the sets. I can have an entire post dedicated to this, but I'll leave it go for now.

4. My cat. She's adorable. And she's more affectionate (with me, anyhow) than most dogs. The little feline follows me everywhere and wants me to hold her or use me for furniture constantly. She's about 13 years old, and thankfully, very healthy and frisky. I love how she knows us, our schedules, and seems to understand a lot of what we are saying. She comes when called, gives me "kitty hugs," and purrs like a freight train.

5. The internet. What did we do without it? 'Nuff said.
