Day 343: Comfortable

(For Monday August 4)

Today was a great day.  It just was. We visited the 9/11 Museum, had lunch at a favorite pizza restaurant, laid on an air mattress and watched a ridiculous movie (Mega Shark vs. Mecca Shark and no I am not joking), ate watermelon, got ice cream, repacked our luggage, and prepared to go home to Colorado.  It was a day where nothing stood out but everything stood out, you know what I mean?  After lunch Lanny and I went into Fairway so I could get some black and whites to bring home. As we moved through the check out line and walked out of the store I was feeling grateful for being comfortable in busy New York City.  I felt at ease and confident that I knew what I was doing and where to go.  I think my gratefulness comes from the fact that I'm not a great traveler. I'm a nervous nelly, uncertain, insecure, lacking direction. But I've been to the city enough and traveled the neighborhood my brother lives in enough that I felt comfortable and it made me feel so grateful.  The black and whites weren't bad either!  :)

And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play. Read a Road Map Day One of the many reasons I would stink at The Amazing Race is because I never did learn how to read a road map well.  I remember doing worksheets and class lessons on maps and I was able to skate by to pa
