Sweet Anticipation

I have two wonderful things to look forward to this month – I’m going to Arizona to visit family, the 9th through the 15th (probably no blogging then though,) and Todd is coming here for the week of Thanksgiving.

I think a Good Life has to have that “sweet anticipation” in it. Sure, we need to relish the here and now, and find things within our day-to-day lives to savor, but having something special to look forward to? That’s really important.

The ‘other’ kind of anticipation – the waiting for something to happen that is supposed to happen but is out of your own control… THAT kind of anticipation though… not so good. We’ve had too much of that lately and it usually results in me eating leftover Halloween candy or worse.

So here’s to Sweet Anticipation of the Good Things in life!
