Sunday

Today Grandpa Willard & I took the train into Chicago... 

 

Our first stop was coffee (of course) at Intelligentsia

Then onto Michigan Avenue

 

Teavana (Imperial Aci Blueberry ice tea sweetened with German Rock Sugar)

Lunch at the Big Bowl

 

Our fortunes for the day (perfect)

 Apple Store

 Time flew by and soon it was time to head home

 ...but not without another cup of coffee.

Be of good cheer....(Homer)

Grandma Jeanne works two jobs, so when I come home late at night, I am tired. Sometimes I am very tired. Sometimes when I come home to a sink full of dirty dishes I start to become "grumpy". Being grumpy has "no" rewards. Grandpa Willard and Uncle Tyler also work long days and when I remember all they have done in working together I am very thankful.

Alexandra Stoddard wrote in her book, Grace Notes:
A cheerful disposition is luminous. It illuminates everyone and everything. Being cheerful is an attitude.

Striving to be cheerful is a win win situation. CHEERS!!!
