2nd day - 5 things today (till Christmas)

 After posting my first 5 things, I was excited to do another one, so this is my second day. Still trying to come up with a good title.

1. Woke up at 5h20 and took advantage of the fresh morning breeze. It's 32°C as I write this. Waking up early would mean having coffee in the garden while writing my to-do list and then being interrupted by the thought of ripening tomatoes. Afterwards, I got up and walked to check them and realized that 5 melons were actually growing. 
2. Said my prayer of gratitude. For TODAY. FAMILY. LIFE & the abundance in our garden. 
3. Cleaned up our terrace. I have accumulated lots of wooden boxes, why do I like them? Not to forget the two bags of eggshells that Mama put aside for our plants.  
4. Wrote and posted a letter, destination.....Japan. During our trip to some parts of Asia some years ago, we met my college friend, Myra, and her family in Nagoya. Her nephew at that time was probably  3 years old and recently, I was able to talk to them. He was so excited when I said that I would write to him.
5. Cleared our dining table. The area where I love to put my books, papers, notebooks, mail, drying herbs, and flowers. Yes, just about anything, and now at least one can see that it's dark brown.

It's possible that in a day or two, our dining table will disappear under the piles of school books, jars, and little projects but today, I celebrate my small wins.
