Gratitude Project Day 8:

1) Grateful that I work with so many problem solvers, innovators and critical thinkers. The intelligence that surrounds me daily constantly spurs me to my creative place and makes me push the boundaries.
2) Grateful for D and A and celebrating their birthday this weekend. I've loved having those little girls around!
3) Grateful for the Don and his strength as he's powered through some of the toughest years. Inspiring.

Yesterday we were gathered in the cafeteria for a corporate meeting with an out of town executive. While I should have been focusing on the message, my eyes wandered to the window and Sugar Loaf mountain is slate gray. It seems like just yesterday I was looking out at the brilliant fall colors. Even the hurricane didn't destroy *all* of the color... but now it's really gone. The steely mountains are more wintry than fall-ish and the days are embracing that gray edge of cold.

It is going to be in the mid seventies in Texas next week!
