Looking for things going right
For as much that goes wrong in life, there are so many things that go right.
- We went on the roof this weekend. Before we purchased the house, we had an engineer tell us that it was brand new and he even knew the company that put the roof on because of the way it was done. So we saw our roof for the first time and it was PERFECT. Flawless. And the view was amazing! The Verrazano Bridge is a beautiful site to see from my roof in Bay Ridge.
- Most days I wake up and I am just so grateful for our home. It feels so good to be here.
- The steps from our duplex to our tenants apartment downstairs were covered with linoleum. It was clean, but very old fashioned. We removed the linoleum and found a gorgeous wood staircase.
- Lee & I went shopping for furniture and although we didn’t find any in six stores in NJ, we did laugh enough to make my cheeks hurt. Even the salespeople loved Leon’s humor, but I think they would have appreciated him more if he bought some furniture.
- My students made me laugh so hard today. I love them.
- I’m back to myself -> Looking for things going right and being grateful for it all.
Hugs,

Great attitude Marlene! Last week I had a whole lot of things going wrong. This week I have had expectations for things to go well and they are. Like night and day. I’m enjoying every minute of it. :)
I hope you find the furniture you’re looking for soon!
I wanted to thank you for stopping by to leave a comment on my engagement post last week and for your sweet words.
