I’m grateful for another morning :folded_hands:t2:
I’m grateful Alice is snuggled in purring and making biscuits on my side.

I’m grateful the move went too smoothly.
I’m grateful the traffic in and out of LA and back was not bad at all.
I’m grateful my movers were the best of the best.
I’m grateful I paid the extra to have them pack and even unpack.
I’m grateful the almost new mattress we had went to one of the mover’s mother. So grateful as no one takes mattresses around here no matter how great shape they are in.

I’m grateful the new place looks real good with our stuff from the old new :grimacing:place. I’m grateful we will head to Malibu with the cats Tuesday afternoon to stay awhile and get the place more set up.

I’m grateful now we just need to sell the condo in Newport Beach. Anyone…..anyone…….10 minutes from the Pacific Ocean. Anyone……..

I’m grateful my back doesn’t hurt from putting together this big plastic storage box for Gus’s bouncy house that took quite a few hours. I’m grateful my SIL was here to help attach the top hinges for the lid at the end.

I’m grateful we all went to Chili’s for dinner last night.

I’m grateful my projects for today are a good long hike I found in my hood. And taking down my Christmas tree :winking_face_with_tongue: @Cjp
I’m pulling the almost broken wrist card for my tree still up in February :scream:

I’m grateful CJ is going to San Diego already googled beach meetings for ya. Awesome way to start the day. If you get north to Santa Monica give me a shout!

I’m grateful the move is over and the latter half of the week I could pick and choose what to do around here and relax in between.

I’m grateful I made it to Fridays beach meeting and got in a 5 mile walk on the sand to Point Dume instead of driving there and hiking on the rocks. I’m grateful my wrist feels better. Not perfect yet. But 98% there. Maybe.

I’m grateful for our SoCal weather even if it’s a bit too warm.

I’m grateful for everyone’s support here.

Grateful today…

Weekend has been nice.. even got to a movie Friday Night with popcorn and ice cream afterwards. It has been a couple years since I have been in a movie theater.

Weather here will be sunny and warm this week. Feel bad for those freezing. Snowing in Florida @bluekoolaid_88 make sure you cover your plants.

Tenants settled into my rental and hopefully rent money starts coming in. Grateful may be able to get financing in better standings.

Homemade clam chowder last night a big win. Hubby asked where did it come from. When I said I made it I was told that it was really good including homemade cornbread muffins.

Grateful for New Month, New Day, New Beginnings and start overs. So grateful in this life we get so many Do-Overs to better ourselves.

I am so humbled and full of gratitude for my sobriety..

Grateful for the time to spend here. I can’t always make it happen….Time Management is tough when so much to do and not enough time for everything I have on my table.

Thanks @Butterflymoonwoman halo jumping is like skydiving but from a greater height. Regular skydiving may be 18k feet in the air. Halo jumping is like 28k feet in the air and requires oxygen. Lol i love the freefall

I’m grateful that I attended my dad’s 63rd birthday party. I didn’t want to go and had to force myself and I’m happy that I did!

I’m grateful that I spoke to my sister for the first time in over 6 months.

I’m grateful to have hindsight. It’s important to look back and reflect.

I’m grateful that my YouTube is doing well and I’m almost monetized! I only need 200 more subscribers.

I’m grateful that I’m not struggling emotionally. I have more understanding of who I am and it’s helping me through it.

Enjoy the night everyone!

The Thai restaurant I went to Saturday evening, authentic, fresh, delicious food :drooling_face:

Hearing birds singing while having my early morning coffee :bird: :hot_beverage:

Lighter evenings setting in :heart_hands:t3:

Having patience at a family gathering I went to yesterday, though I did snap once :woman_facepalming:t2: my future son in law has a tendency to talk over you and sometimes I can’t hold my tongue :see_no_evil_monkey:

Being present for my boys :blue_heart:

My kettle bells :flexed_biceps:

Insight Timer, especially the sleep meditation :sleeping_face:

Monday morning gratitude.

Today I’m grateful for a sunday full of rest, painkillers and mental health meds. It was full moon and I felt it yesterday, not funny.

I’m grateful for homecooked food and leftovers, fresh bread, tea galore, the seedlings striving, the seeds germinating, the pets being lovely and the weather being depressing. Better than spring for 5 days and then instant summer like always.

I’m grateful I sleep better in my old bed from my townhouse that now is in my bedroom, oh I missed that piece of furniture.

I’m grateful the driveway is icefree again, I hope to stock up on firewood the comfortable usual way today. We may have hope.

I’m grateful I digged up some very old books while unpacking moving boxes from the library relocation, I already put my nose in one and enjoy it :blush:

I’m grateful for calm mondays, the privilege of working and living in the same place. I’m still knackered from last week. Will start the week slow.

I’m grateful for friends & chosen family, I feel loved and cared and have people who I love and care about.

I’m grateful I revived the Anti-Valentine thread, I guess there are people who need it. I do.

Grateful:

I did decide to go stay with my sis. Though I have major stress about the trip, and the stay, they are definitely dog people and live on a pretty large lot.

Grateful I told my kiddos. Particularly, one shows understanding and the other shows concern. Every day - my people. So different and both so amazing.

Energy about my own business, and plans I had to do while travelling. Certainly, not settled - but seriously being in my sibling’s house will solidify what should be for me. She’s known me for 56 years and 11+ months. Who knows more than she does?

YOU. This forum that I didn’t even want to share on today. However, I still know gratitude and placing it somewhere matters.

Feeling the small community stand up to support his basketball team after they lost a well played game.

I’m grateful god is guiding me through this journey.

I’m grateful my furnace is fixed and up to code. I don’t have to stress for the rest of the winter over it freezing.

I’m grateful that my family is all under the same roof and safe.

I’m grateful that I was able to help out another person by giving them a haircut. It’s amazing the difference someone feels when fresh.

I’m grateful to be me even with all the challenges I face. I’m able to feel accomplished.
