Gratitude

Today I am grateful for my hands, as I continue to work to prepare to celebrate my husband's birthday with family and friends later today. Usually we have this yearly gathering at my in-laws' home which is quite larger than mine and located out in the country, with an outdoor kitchen, several patios and gazebo areas, a pool, and fields for setting bonfires. This year we are hosting at my small house in the city as they are having work done on their kitchen, which is currently gutted. Doing my best to tidy up inside and out so folks can enjoy themselves.
