    It's a beautiful chilly clear night.

    ~1. Today I noticed a big shift in the way I think about food. In a good way.
    ~2. I decided to make a written exercise plan, and I feel good about that too.
    ~3. I really love my plushy white full length robe that was only $16 at JCPenney. I am trying to recreate the feeling of a nice hotel, since I don't see a lot of travel in my near future. I have my bed just about right now, and the robe, and I am working toward that "nice hotel" bathroom.

    :glasses: ~4. Nascar.

    I'm grateful for sunshine and warm temps! Well it's 39F and that is feeling real warm!

    A 40min walk with my dog

    Free minutes on my cell phone. I got to talk with my mom for over an hour.

    Then I talked with my younger daughter who moved to Florida at the end of Dec.

    Will I use up more? Maybe!

    Another week! That much closer to spring! yay!

    1. I'm grateful to see rain. Even though it's still close to freezing and it's very slippery outside, it's rare for it to rain on the prairies in February. I feel closer to home (BC)! :glasses:

    2. I'm grateful for having a ME day on Saturday which consisted of 6 hours of shopping where I got a cute pair of rubber boots (looks like I will really need them this spring!) and new earphones for my mp3 which I really needed & now I'm so excited to get out walking with my tunes again! :bigsmile:

    3. I'm grateful that my man recognizes when he's being an A** :grumble: and does what he can to tell me he's sorry and make it all better. :blushing:

    4. I'm grateful that I didn't catch the nasty stomach flu my dear stepson had this weekend.:sick:

    5. I'm grateful for the inner love, peace and energy I feel today! Should be a great day! :heart:

    Heal... I refer to my loved ones as "Sunshine," which is especially sweet when I hum the song, "you are my sunshine."

    I'm grateful for my wife and two kidos. My sunshine.

    It's just the opposite with me, hubby cooks fabulous and I do the dishes. It's the first step in a manicure as by the time I'm done the dishes my hands are nice and soft, then I do my nails and put lotion on.:bigsmile:

    Thankful for achy knees that keep me going:heart:
    Thankful for a little warmer weather:heart:
    Thankful we had a little sunshine but we need more!:heart:
    Thankful God gave another day to try doing it right again lol:heart:

    Spoke too soon about the nasty flu bug. I'm home sick today. :sick:

    Still....

    1. I'm thankful for my man who isn't feeling so hot himself, but is still at work in between checking up on us two and also has to worry about the basement flooding (it's that rain in Feb thing - not so good I guess!) :love:

    2. I'm thankful that the slippery roads and sidewalks didn't cause any injury to those around me yesterday (& today as far as I know so far) :smile:

    3. I'm thankful for a warm bed. :yawn:

    4. I'm thankful for finding the podcast "A Course In Miracles". I've always been interested in it and now I have the time to enjoy it. :happy:

    5. I'm thankful for cold, fresh, clean water (one sip at a time). :drinker:

    Sunshine,
    warm weather,
    the walk I'm going to take my dog on later,
    getting to grill chicken on the charcoal grill for dinner tonight,
    God continuing to provide for our needs
    And the peace he gives me during this time.

    I missed Tuesday but it's only 12:18AM so I'll get two days for the price of one!

    It was a beautiful day with snow falling lightly all day.

    ~ 1. I LOVE snow. We don't get much of it, but it is just magical. I could stare at it falling for hours.
    ~ 2. I am grateful for an opportunity to go somewhere I've never been.
    ~ 3. I am grateful for color TV. I'm old enough to remember black & white only TV. Color is better.

    *bonus round. I am grateful for the "edit" button. Thanks Mike. :ohwell:
