and closes on Tue, Mar 10 2026. Not to fret, the next one is all lined up on Thurs, Mar 12.
Impressionism style of painting 1874 – 1886. I visited this exhibition last week.
This is my meditation of thanks
- By a stroke of intuition, we hurried ourselves off to do our grocery shopping before the rains arrived. We had even returned home when the drum beat of raindrops sounded. Thanks for not getting a rain shower.
- I managed to select a comb of green bananas to ripen while accompanying me in the week. O, the simple joy of managing to buy fresh fruit!
- We came across another clump of wild mushrooms. Glorious wonder of nature!
4. We went to visit our former neighborhood to run an errand. Is getting a flu vaccine jab an errand? I’m thankful this type of jab has always saved me from catching cold for one whole year.
5. You know me. Another neighborhood means … ….. getting a bonus. This time, it is a take-out meal! Because there’s no bookshop in the area.
6. We arranged some sticks of furniture and now our sofa is in a different position. Good to have this change.
7. We have a food and home products fair out of town. Yay! Many retailers are gathered in one big hall. I don’t have to hunt up and down different roads to buy stuff.
8. This weekend is The Weekend for book and magazine discounts. Grateful for these sales.
9. Good to have one trip to hunt for friendly traps. We’re on a perpetual spree to clean up household pests. I’m not writing which pests in case people get all sentimental over exterminating insects and the like.
10. Thanks for wonderful bloggers. Those who have committed themselves to A -Z April Challenge, please go to their website http://www.a-to-zchallenge.com/ for their schedule.

Like Grat #6! Nothing like rearranging furniture for a change in reality.
No! Serially! With a significant moving of larger items, the world changes. OK maybe only for a split-second when you walk into the room… in the dark…ideally at, like 2:00am*
You get all Talking Heads (‘Once in a Lifetime’) going in your…head
lets see if your blog allows links

*2:00 is the latest anyone should be wandering the house… getting a little close to 3:00 am which, in my experience is not a human-friendly time of day
It’s always a rush of thankfulness when you get in the house right before the rains come. I enjoyed your list very much.
Thanks Clark. I get it. Next TToT will be different.
Grat #8 – i can only imagine the expanse of walls covered with bookshelves in your home, Cai… Have a good week!
