Gratitude to help my attitude

I have been feeling both blue and VERY snarky for the last couple of days. Also sorry for myself. It has made me feel pretty crappy, both emotionally and physically. SO, time to think about things I am grateful for to erase this horrible combination of moods.
I am grateful for:
1) My health. That is why I am back on here to hang onto this into my golden years!
2) My husband. He has more integrity than any other person I have ever met.
3) My sons. They have both grown into kind, smart, FUNNY young men.
4) Believe it or not - the crappy weather we are having. It's cold and rainy and give me a *teensy* bit more time to get to a weight where I am comfortable in shorts and tank tops.
There! I feel better already! Anyone else need to focus on the + and boost their mood?

Tee hee, I thought you said you were feeling Sharky.
I'm thinking of going diving, so my thoughts stray to underwater thypes of things. Like sharks. I kind of gave it up last year because I didn't have a regular partner to dive with.
I am grateful I'm healthy enough to do whatever I want right now.0 -

If the weather ever gets decent, you should go diving! Or does the weather even matter for diving???0 -

Nope. You're gonna get wet, regardless. Actually the water in Puget Sound is much clearer in the winter. Summer isn't the best for visibility.0
