Sunshine List #2

Posted by on February 26, 2012

Sunshine

Last week I introduced a new feature to the Saucy Scribe blog, a weekly list of good things. Over the past few years I’ve found myself being way to negative, it’s pretty easy to find things that could be better. When I’m in my pity mode and feeling sorry myself I always hear my mother’s voice saying "you don’t have to look far to find someone who’s worse off than you or has more troubles, so celebrate that you HAVE good things in your life!"

Such inspiring words!

So, without further ado…here’s my Sunshine List for the week of February 20th



(1) Speaking of my Mom, this week she celebrated a birthday. A family birthday is always something to make me smile!

(2) Friends. My best friend and her family came for a visit last Sunday and to be honest, nothing cheers me up, keeps me grounded or gives me a warm fuzzy feeling more than spending time with her and her crew. Definitely part of my Sunshine List this week!

(3) Friends. This week a friend took time out of her busy life to come to my house and help me get started planning a DisneyWorld vacation for the family. She came loaded with books, maps, websites and great advice and wonderful tips. Beth, you’re a sweetheart! :)

(4) I faced my fear of driving in the dark and in the rain. I had to pick up hubby last night at the airport and driving in the dark is not something I do well – add rain, and I become one nervous woman behind the wheel. I’m proud of myself that I didn’t shirk away and beg one of the boys to pick him up instead. I did drive a little slow (and anyone that didn’t like it was welcome to pass me – and they did!) I even arrived at the airport before the flight did – YAY. Just this little thing make me feel pretty darn good last night.

(5) My novella, A Knight in Her Arms, is still selling steadily on Amazon, Barnes & Nobles and everywhere else ebooks are sold. At only 99 cents, I’m proud to say that 3,000 people have given it a try. I am humbled and thankful for each and every sale. All those readers without a doubt add some Sunshine to my week :)

 

Your turn!

What is on your Sunshine List this week?

 

Share and Enjoy

    :grin: I’ll pass along your friendship sunshine to Beth :grin: but from what I hear she enjoyed it immensely. It’s never a hardship to talk about The House of Mouse! Kudos on driving past your fears. I am a pretty intrepid driver, but one year coming back from MD with my father and his GF in the car, we encountered a horrific hail storm – with hail the size of golfballs! There was zero visibility on a major inter-state road, bits and pieces of small tree limbs and leaves whipping all over the roadway. My heart was pounding. I simply slowed down, prayed, put my hazards on, and cringed every time an eighteen wheeler flew by like an idiot. Yay that you got to the airport before the plane. Yay, too, that A Knight in Her Arms is continuing to climb the charts. There’s a reason! It’s a great book!

    Deb, I love the idea of making a Sunshine List! I just started a gratitude journal last week because I could feel myself sinking into a pit of negativity and ungratefulness. Here’s another list I can work on now.
    Congrats on ‘A Knight in Her Arms’! I absolutely loved Fistful of Fate so now I’ll have to pick your newest book up. Thanks for an enjoyable post!
