    I am trying to think of something for today. It was a rough night.

    Today, I am thankful...that it did not snow so much that my appointment with my therapist was canceled like it was last week.

    I :heart: TUESDAY! (Not sure why, I just do)

    1. I'm thankful that my man had to stop at home to pick something up in the middle of his work day and I was able to get a hug and kiss and 'I love you' from him - unexpected and wonderful! :smooched:

    2. I'm thankful it's weigh in day (officially for me) and I'm excited to step on the scale for once! :happy:

    3. I'm thankful I am God's child and He loves me and blesses me with all that I want and need! :bigsmile:

    4. I'm thankful for such an understanding boss who FORCED me to go home an hour early yesterday so I could get some sleep because I wasn't feeling too well - also thankful I feel better today! :flowerforyou:

    5. I'm thankful for the beautiful sunshine and the knowledge that this cold winter won't last forever, and I'll soon enough be in a boat on the lake with my man catching a bigger fish than he does! :laugh:

    I like coming on and reading all the things people are grateful for. It helps me to remember that even though times right now might be hard there are things in my life to be grateful for.

    So today I am grateful that I have food in the house and I'm making Chicken Cacciatore with lots of peppers & zucchini in it for dinner. (I like to add extra vegies)

    That I got to be a MOPS mom mentor today. The young moms don't know how much they brighten our days and that even though we are older we still learn from them.

    That my husband loves me and will support me if I decide to go back to school.

    I'm grateful that I can get an 1-hour massage for 250 Philippine pesos (about $5USD) any day at any hour... traveling does have some perks.

    I'd say I'm jealous but I know how hard it is to be away from your wife (husband for me) So enjoy the massage.
    I did (I still do) monthly ones while my DH was in Iraq. That is something I can add to my grateful list. He is home and the girl I go to is $30/hr. which is not as cheap as yours but still very reasonable.
  • I'm grateful to know that someone understands and cares about me:smile:

    Happy Hump Day! 3 days til the weekend!

    1. I'm thankful for the phone call I JUST GOT from my mother in law who is taking me to work today so I don't have to be outside in the cold! :bigsmile:

    I'm grateful that as much as I probably messed up as a mom my girls still turned out ok. They are both wonderful young women.

    I'm grateful that even with everything that has gone on in the last few month my husband and I have only grown closer together.

    I'm grateful that I have my dog, she's the best!

    Today I am grateful for hospital and the wonderful people that work in them from the drs/surgeons, nurses and all the people that we don't see when we go. Son in law had surgery today and is doing good.

    Safe travels for me, DD and DSIL to the hosp and home for me. They still need to spend the night and will travel home tomorrow.

    Warmer weather. It's like 30F out and it's almost 5pm
