What Are You Grateful For Today?

For the help wanted sign I randomly saw placed near the grocery store today. It was for a potential job for my nephew. Sent him the digits. He called and he starts work on Monday. May it work out however it needs to and help him grow into a more comfortable existence amid the chaos and uncertainty.
 
The five gallon bucket, and then some, full of green beans that we planted, grew, harvested, snapped, cleaned, blanched, and froze. It's a labor of love that sometimes makes me question our sanity, especially on these 100+ degree days, but as long as we're able and nature cooperates, we're gonna keep at it.
 
Surviving the day.
Help.

I did a big booboo- deleted all my texts, including one of my sister's texts. :cry: But I thought, I deleted happy and crappy ones. Most not kept intentionally, just hadn't cleared them, but some I wished hadn't disappeared. I might be able to ask for one or 2 from others, but not really what was spontaneous and in the moment. I tried to restore and think I ditched them all. :(
So I thought, crappy should go- to forgive and forgive myself, and start anew; and happy I have lived, the record 'should' remain in my mind and heart. So I wished I hadn't, but I'm thankful for that thought, or realization. It should leave an impression, not one I can only remember if it's there to re-read, or remember to re-read. I guess it's like saying, if I lost my sense of sight, would I still see in my mind's eye? And/ or hearing, could I still hear what I read or heard? More importantly, can I forget totally what is crappy, and trust what is happy, from within. Trust is much wider, whereas words are within a moment, and mean a lot. But are cumulative.

Today felt like a gift receiving festival! Though it was things we had bought ourselves. A beautiful second hand harness for one of the ponies- soft brown leather with brass fittings, Then a bit for the same set ( apple flavoured no less) and then for me a little bed side table organiser . Dh was expecting a phone but they failed to deliver so it will be another exciting day tomorrow!
