June 14 - What I'm Thankful for Today

Today has been a very good day. Lots of exercise. I'm thankful for getting up early and getting to the YWCA. I had a good workout in the pool and added 20 minutes in the fitness center. Ten minutes each on the bike and elliptical. I'm thankful for the walk I had on the trail. It was another missed photo op. A family of beavers ran across the trail. I recognized the flat tail. Not something you see every day here. I'm thankful for the time at the Botanical Gardens. I did well. I didn't use the mobile cart. I walked. It was quite the workout. I'm feeling it in every cell of my body. Above is a picture from the many I took today. They had the Washed Ashore: Art to Save the Sea exhibition. It's truly amazing what the artists did with the trash found in the oceans. It's pathetic to think of all the trash people throw in our oceans. It's good people are cleaning them up and put the trash to a useful purpose. I'm thankful I got Vendetta back from my friend who read and proofed it. She loved every bit of it. She can't wait until I get it published so she can read it again. It would be great if I can get it published before I move. We'll see. Okay, that's been my day. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. I'm getting off the computer. It's hard to sit here with every cell screaming at me with the workout I gave it today. The image is from the Botanical Gardens.

Get some rest. Your body needs to recover from all that work. I'm thankful for all the rain we've had over the past two days. We've truely needed it.

Beautiful photo! Happy to hear you had such a wonderful day. I'm thankful for the two hilarious birthday cards you sent me. Hubs got a kick out of them, too.

@just4him No, because he’s the same as you. He always needs bananas in the house.

Artists are so creative. I never was much at art. My Mom was very good at oil/water painting. I on the other hand have two left thumbs, lol. Are you artistic? I'm thankful my brother was able to come help my cut down some tree branches which were too close to my home.

Yes, they are. I wasn't either. However, I can paint on rocks. I must have a latent artistic ability. I'm glad he helped you cut down tree branches.
