Small Mercies

:: What has brightened my days in the dark of winter:

    - discovering fresh blueberries at Costco last week, and buying two packages;
    - receiving kind support from a friend regarding my writing;
    - knowing how fortunate I am that at 50 to still have my parents around, and that they are the most amazing parents, too;
    - the recent resurgence of the Montreal Canadiens, and enjoying it quietly (very few of my friends are sports fans, really...);
    - Heavy G taking time from his insanely busy scheduled to stop by and help with a minor house repair;
    - finishing the final draft of another blog article with the same Mr Heavy G;
    - making a professor's day simply by telling her that a new online resource she requested is now available;
    - the gentle reminders of how blessed I am with amazing friends and colleagues
