I am grateful for JJ - too many reasons to count.

I am grateful that God answered my prayers with:  You know, your'e right!  I'll give you this one.  

So, thanks God, it was a very special moment in someones life.

I am grateful for my new sweater - came in handy tonight.
I am grateful for a good hair day - superficial I know, but kinda made my day a little brighter.
I am grateful for a really good nap today - needed it badly.
I am grateful for a day without a migraine.

Had one of those breakthrough moments today.  Someone took time to help me with something that I was struggling with.  A small thing, not very important to anyone, but the patient guidance was SO appreciated.  

So, I am grateful to Ryan for his coaching.

I am so grateful that I got to spend an evening with Laura.  It's been way too long.

I am grateful that I did not run over the squirrel.

I am grateful that I have a free weekend to relax.

I've been missing quite a few days.  This is not as easy as I thought it would be.  Just write a few quick thoughts at the end of the day....too tired, my favorite show is on, bad mood,...the list of excuses is endless. And yes, I admit it: sometimes I don't feel grateful for much of anything at the end of the day.

BUT - it's there, all around me, every day.  There is ALWAYS something to be grateful for.  Can't let myself forget that.

I am grateful for a husband who likes my cooking - usually.
I am grateful for reconnecting with an old friend.
I am grateful for a mammogram that was clean.  Thank you, God!!!

“Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.” Mother Teresa

I really need to remember this.  Sometimes it seems easier to be crabby and impatient.
It only takes a kind word, a smile, or small act of kindness to turn my day around and the kindness and love you get in return is the best!!!

Relax, breath, and reach out with a kind  heart.

I fall short way too often.

I am grateful for a friend that had my back today.  

I am grateful for the heating pad for my sore back. 

I am grateful for an evening with Kelly!!!

I am grateful that my back didn't go out today.  Too much heavy lifting while trying to clean the garage.

I am grateful for a double oven - getting ready to bake cookies for 9 college kids!
