45 of 100 ... Persistence



Every morning, for the last week or so, I've been removing a spider web from the driver's side mirror of my car.  I remove it, and the next morning it is back.  Yesterday, there was no web ... and today, driving home from work, I saw the web again.  I'm not crazy about spiders; in fact, I've screamed and jumped when I've seen one scampering across my floor.  But, as much as I dislike them, they are persistent little critters.  There were no flies caught in that web; I have no idea why it was important to him to have his web on my car, but it was.  Morning after morning, he re-did his web.  Until one morning, yesterday, when it wasn't back.  I thought that was it ... no more web.  But, when I drove back from work today ... there was the web. 


There's a lesson in that for me.


Gratitude Moments for Today
1.  I have to say it ... I am grateful for the 12 hrs of sleep last night!
2.  I'm grateful today for the Blackhawks winning last night! That means they're still in the running!  Had LA won, it would have been lights out for Chicago.  I'm not a big hockey fan, but I do enjoy picking a team at the beginning of the run to the cup and seeing how far "my" team goes ... for the last few years, I've been a Chicago fan ... go 'Hawks!!
3.  I'm grateful that today is the last day of my work-week!  A three-day weekend! I intend to make this a fruitful weekend - much to do.  I don't have any concrete plans at the moment, so ... much can be done!
4.  Today, I'm grateful for the beautiful green leaves I am seeing everywhere!
5.  Today, I'm grateful that the spider came back and wove his web again.
