I am grateful that the lady in the pharmacy set my cell phone aside for me, when I forgot it there today. Good people still exist.

Today, I am so grateful that I no longer react to negative things or people. I truly feel sorry for some people. They have no idea how to be happy, laugh or even smile.

Today I am grateful for good people who find their way into my life and who leave footprints on my heart when they are gone. RIP dear Kathy.

Today I am grateful that I did most of my Sunday chores today. Grocery shopping, laundry, etc. I really just want to have a relaxing day tomorrow. I might even stay in my Pj's all day. lol

Grateful for big snow last night, I may stay in all day too LMN. Sunshine is deceiving, it's dang cold out there and just a little wind will blow the snow over the recently cleared roads.

I am grateful that I have everything in life that I need, everything else is just "stuff".

I am grateful today for the fact that no matter how much snow falls or wind blows...spring is only 2 months away. Spring always comes, life is renewed, nature comes alive and the world is a beautiful place.

I am so grateful that I am home and in my Pj's. It was a long and frustrating day.

I missed a couple of days here, not sure how that happened but I am grateful that my mind works at least 50% of the time, lol.

I am grateful today for the smell of a pot roast in my oven, and for a warm and safe place to live. So many live with so much less.

I am also grateful for barred owls that live not far from my neighbourhood, they make winter bird watching worthwhile.

Not my picture (the ones I saw were elusive), but isn't this one lovely bird?

Blame it on winter brain, LMN.

I am very grateful for sunshine and good roads, so I can get out and check nature and stop at an orchard I love to pick up the best apples this side of heaven.

Winter brain? Is that like a brain freeze? Oh my, my dear sweet sister! Perhaps I should you give some of my special recipe.

Today, I am grateful that it is TGIF!!

Today is Groundhog Day and I am grateful that Wiarton Willie, our albino groundhog, did not see his shadow...meaning an early spring is coming.

Today would have been my mother's birthday. She was a wise, warm, wonderful, strong and courageous woman who raised 3 children alone after my father died of cancer when I was 6. A woman of faith, she taught me that we are never alone, that God walks with us every day.

So, today I am grateful to have been raised by such a loving, dear woman, who taught me values and the courage to stand alone when needed, to stand for what is right.

Thanks for the memories, Mama, and for the love that remains in my heart.

Your Mother would be / is so proud and honored! Her daughter is all those things and more. She taught you well my friend.


Today, I am grateful for a rainy and cold (59 degrees) Sunday. I am so grateful I really don't have much today but stay warm and cozy in my little and peaceful home sweet home.
