Weekly Gratitudes

I'm a complainer. Yes, I said it. While I am a very optimistic person and encourage positivity to those around me, sometimes the negativity overshadows. We live in a challenging time with violence, disagreement, financial instability and millions of people in need. It may be difficult to be thankful and appreciative. There's been radio silence from the world of A More Perfect Union. I have not sent out a newsletter in over a year and I stopped posting my Weekly Gratitudes lists in August. I have learned much this year and need to share that. I also need to STOP COMPLAINING and remind myself of the great things I have, have done and have yet to do. Here are my weekly lists!
