What Are You Grateful For Today?

I am so grateful that my daughter got food stamps today. This will make my savings last longer. I am also grateful that my daughter found a school to register the youngest granddaughter in school. Yay.

For 1950s fashion. There is a lovely TV show that I have started watching and the clothes are just gorgeous. Wonderful dresses.

I am so grateful that I live in a country that clean running water comes out of a tap for me to drink.

I am grateful for those moments of breathing and mindfulness.[DOUBLEPOST=1398205797][/DOUBLEPOST]@Dendrite I am grateful for beautiful dresses as well. :)

@Ms Spock I am grateful for kind hearts. For people that have deeply suffered and still choose to walk the path of kindness. :-)

I am grateful that at my age I realise that I can choose kindness, even when I am not 'feeling' kind. Its a decision I have made because I know its good to do.

I am grateful that I can mindfully forgive myself when I am not kind and seek to move on to the next moment.

And I am very grateful for pretty dresses, makeovers, and the scent of freshly picked roses. :-)

I am grateful that I have successfully moved on in my life since my husband died. I am grateful that the past year went by so very fast.

I am grateful for a chat room where people come and practice disco dancing with me.
I am grateful for getting a URL (from YouTube) for a disco song and all press play at the same time (well theoretically anyway) and we sing along or type in our disco moves. It is a little bit of fun.

I am grateful for keeping moving and catching up with people on Sunday night for a dinner, Monday morning for Breakfast in Kiama, at an artist's get together Monday lunch, (the onion pie was awesome), Monday night for dinner in Kiama, Tuesday see Judith, then Barb, then Terri and Dori, and yesterday at the Easter Show. Keeping moving and doing stuff is really working for me. Staying at home frozen, hyper-vigilant, dissociated doesn't help me, (I know, I know I am arriving a bit late to the party! :cool:

I am grateful for being able to see the specialist about my ulcer today. It has been a rugged experience having this ulcer. I am pretty scared. It has been going for quite some while now.

@gizmo you have gone great guns over this last year. I remember how upset you were when your hubby died. It is amazing what you have done and I admire you for it and it is a little bit inspiring for me as well.

@Dendrite you go girl! you go!

Your many kindnesses in chat are noted and appreciated.

Thanks Ms Spock! :)

I am grateful for a decadent ice chocolate at a lovely cafe with Mrs Dendrite today:

I am grateful that I got through the day.

I am grateful that they will send overseas for the specific antibiotics that I need to help me get better. I hope it gets passed by the committee in Canberra.

I am grateful that although my stomach is so sore I am off tomorrow. I am grateful for being able to try tonight to face the verbally abusive client, I am going to try to think of other things I am thankful for. I am glad I came up with a new idea to manage 'anniversaries'. I am grateful I am getting a new phone, and that makes me feel safer. I am grateful Easter was beautiful. And for lots of things (I am grateful).
