I'm grateful for goofy things, like the giant soap bubble I accidentally created in the shower when I used a little too much shower gel.

I'm grateful the manager of Art Xchange Gallery remembered meeting me way back in September. Exhibits for next year are scheduled, but 2016 is wide open...

Day 7

I'm grateful for moments when my kids are being unintentionally funny.

The Boy asked me to give him only one or two pieces of Halloween candy in his lunch, instead of a handful of goodies. "EVERYBODY wanted to trade [items from their own lunches] with me." Poor sweetheart feels obligated to trade. (I wouldn't. Mommy doesn't share food.)

And thank you to Kristin Johnson, who decided to spoil me with this gratitude:

"I am thankful for you Lisa…for being such a wonderful part of Best of the Northwest – October! Thanks for being so supportive there at the show, and beyond by including me in your Art & News Bulletin. How special is that!?!

It’s great to have artists supporting artists!"

Please join Kristin and me: email me what you're grateful for at the moment!
