three thanks

Today is the 9th day of the 3rd month, the 69th day of the year and there are only 290 shopping days until Christmas left. It is also:
On this day in history, the earliest event is in 141 BC when Liu Che, posthumously known as Emperor Wu of Han, assumed the throne in China. In 1831 King Louis Philippe established the French Foreign Legion to fight in Algeria, unknowingly creating a romantic icon that came to mean reckless, breathless adventure for those willing to seek a second chance – and still exists 185 years later if you want to just chuck it all ((tempting, isn’t it?))
Spring has never been my favorite time of year. I always dragged through the third term in school. The skyrocketing pollen count clogs my sinuses with the resulting sniffles, sneezes and itchy eyes. And then there is my birthday... I have always blamed my malaise on my natal day, don’t know why because I am usually not sensitive about my age and am usually happy to renew my lease and start a new trip around the sun.
So I have been trying very hard to counter all the tears and angst by dwelling on positives in my live and finding it more difficult than it should be not to add a caveat to each positive statement, ignoring qualifiers. I can do three things right off the bat:
- I always start with the fact that I am continue to be very proud of the adults my children have become
– not sure it wasn’t despite me rather than because of me but I am pleased with the outcome [oops, that is what I mean by a qualifier]. - Then I look around at my apartment and admire the comfortable surroundings – it is a very pleasant, welcoming living area with a lovely view.
- My car is now over eleven years old and has over 93K miles on it – and the only thing I have had to do on it thus far is regular maintenance and new tires.
