Gratitude

Today I'm grateful for...

Seeing what other people are grateful for, what's important to them on any given day. Also, learning new ways to be grateful and and new ways to show gratitude from the glog. Doing the glog has made me more aware in my every day routine, I watch people, and how they interact.--Now if I can just get to the point where I'm aware of myself, my actions, and my words all of the time, that would be my ultimate way of being.

Remembering jones's gentle hand supporting me during our conversation on the ferry when I was sure my knees would buckle at any moment.

Going to mom's today after work to play with the babies. D.J.'s caution when we found a guarder snake (is it guarder or gardener?) Watching them in the pool, swinging them and throwing them on the bed. Getting to eat pizza with everyone. Watching Kyleigh's outrageously joyous personality, she comes in loud, proud and smiling! D.J.'s mischievous personality! Tell him no and he'll do it right in front of you while you're watching, and then apologise!

Chatting with Dennis about Kauai. Also talking about a family trip to Kings Island.

Not waisting time when I couldn't sleep last night and getting some more organizing done in my room.

Really trying to get it that I am not a failure if my house is messy and not as clean as my mother's. I am not my mother!

My body feeling normal again after all the travelling. All the swelling in my feet and ankles is gone.

All of the people out there who feel emotions as deep as I do and are moved as easily as I am.

Knowing that the repairs needing done around the house will be handled. My questions of who to call will be easily answered, the repairs will be done quickly and done right with little effort on my part.

Asking for help more often, and accepting it when it's offered.---It's as easy as saying yes please.

My lovely jacuzzi tub, bubble bath, and sexy jazzy music to accompany the hot water.

Anticipating TERT and all that it means. Looking forward to stories, pictures, and lots of laughs from Dean and Jones. Is it 3 more go to sleeps? ;)

Good things are happening to the people I love.

You my little bubble, you.
