gratitude, wish lists
For every item on my wish list, I make sure there's something I already have that I'm grateful for. Helps keep things in perspective.
1. Bike. (~$100)
* Thankful I have physical health and freedom to ride one, living somewhere bikeable.
2. Piano/Keyboard (~$200)
* Musical ability, 5 years of free piano lessons at a magnet school.
3. Cookware (~$?)
* Place and ability to cook things, fresh produce from community garden.
4. More time with my babies (priceless)
* Two beautiful, healthy children who are happy and well cared for.
5. To go back to school ($at least hundreds if not thousands)
* About as excellent a elementary and high school education as a lack of money can buy, and 3.5 years at a top college, 2 months of Spanish in Guatemala. Ability and freedom to go to the library, read, take free classes on Coursera, etc.
