    Today I am grateful for a good night's rest. Yesterday was extremely stressful for me, but really am grateful to be able to wake up refreshed and ready to tackle the rest of the day.

    Today I'm grateful that my mother was able to celebrate her 90th birthday and liked the gifts I gave her. Also, wonderful to have dinner with my son and play uno like we used to when he was a little boy. Also had an art student today and that went well. Pleasant spring weather here in Colorado, I'm grateful!

    Sounds like you had a wonderful day! Happy Birthday to your mom!
    Today I am grateful for losing 5/8 lbs towards my Saint Patty's Day challenge. If I can loose 3 lbs. in 9 days, I'll be REALLY thankful :p

    Today I am grateful for a brief snow shower that will help the spring flowers. Daffodils about ready to pop. Grateful for good books to read, a friendly stranger who bought me a latte, a coupon for a free burrito for my son at his favorite burrito place. Back to logging every bite again, unfortunately, the only thing that is proven to work, but grateful that it works if I work it.

    Today I am grateful for my job, and project team, of whom I am the manager. My job allows for a lot of flexibility regarding teleworking, which in turns allows me to support my boyfriend's sister and her new baby and I don't have to take paid time off.

    Today I'm grateful to have two of my pieces in a small art show and to have gone to fun art guild meeting where I saw my friend Nancy and a fantastic mixed media demonstration.

    Today I am grateful for blueberries. That's right - blueberries. I bought myself a bag of frozen blueberries the other day at Trader Joe's and put them in my green smoothie this morning. To say the very least it was amazing and really set the tone for me today. :)

    Today I'm grateful for the end of the term at Redstone and that they have been purchased by a strong tech school so looks like there will still be a job there. Glad that my son feels better today.

    Today I'm grateful to get a confirmation that I will start my art instructor job at Michael's in April with my first orientation on Monday. Also made a new agreement with the student loan people so that feels better. Getting my grading for the term done today and reading.

    Today I am grateful for the ability to take the good with the bad, and know that the latter doesn't have to ruin the former. Happy Sunday!

    Since my dad passed away unexpectedly and quickly due to cancer in the fall, I am grateful and blessed for every day I have with my family and friends. I am grateful that his illness set me on a course to live my life as healthy as I can and keeps me motivated and committed to it.

    Today I am grateful for the support of my partner - who helped me get out the door to do my run, even though my mind, the rain, and a lot of other excuses were holding me back.

    Today I'm grateful for encouragement about teaching future classes for DeVry. Grateful that my son actually got caught up on his sleep and was his old self this morning. Glad my plans are proceeding for the series of bird paintings I want to create in the next year.

    I am grateful for my friends who don't care when:
    • I am not joining them for drinking.
    • I am not accepting food that they offer to me.
    • I make a lot of noise with the blender.
    • I decline their invitation or show up late because I am working out in that time.
    • I measure my food before eating.
