Today I am grateful that we didn't get buried in snow like so many around us, and for a warm home when it is -18C outside.

I am grateful for a computer, because it is what helped me come here and return each day to maintain my sanity.

Very nice, LMN!

I am grateful to finally accept that where I am at with my employment is where I should be for the moment; I'll work on sitting tight, keeping my routine in place, no fight or flight, and wait and see what 2019 brings.

Wishes for peace and harmony to all.

Anaya, good things come to those who wait. I just know this will be your year to shine.

I am grateful the snow has stopped, although it will be crispy cold tonight.

Ann. Wishing you an abundance of good things to come this year - good health, peace, happiness, and love.

Today, I am grateful to be in a warm, safe, quiet home (at least for a little while, until I have to leave to go to work, lol). It is mighty cold in these parts today!

It's mighty cold here too, but supposed to start warming tomorrow. It is -38C/-36F here with wind chill this morning.

So....I am grateful that bad days don't last forever, usually a few in a row are enough and then a turn of events brings things back to a more doable journey.

And I am grateful for beautiful bright sunshine that has shone through this wicked cold snap. At least it looks pretty even if it is too cold to go outdoors.

Grateful for friends who I had lunch with
Then the other friends for a tea after a meeting

Grateful my health is improving and I can focus on 'fist world' problems- a luxury in some ways!

Today, I am grateful that I went to work even though I really wasn't feeling well. I not only collected a large outstanding payment, I made a pretty good sale too. My boss was thrilled too. Yay!

This morning I am grateful for the nice neighbour lady who made ginger snaps and brought me a tin full. I made her soup last week when she had a cold. So maybe I am just grateful for the sharing that neighbours can do for each other.

Today, I am grateful for my Godchild. I just love when she sends me pictures of her beautiful little girl. It just warms my heart.

This morning the snow has made travel to meet my niece for lunch, a treacherous journey.

So I am grateful for road reports that keep me safe and grateful
that rescheduling this until tomorrow works for both of us.

I am grateful to have time to take my canine buddy to the vet. Hoping he might contain some of his unlimited energy and sit still while in the waiting area.

Today, I am grateful that I can take constructive criticism without taking it all personally. I like knowing my strengths AND weakness so I can keep improving. Life is good! I've got this!

I am grateful for my niece and her family who keep me in smiles.

Me (to 2 year old great niece at toy store): You can choose a toy and Aunt Ann will buy it for you to take home.

2 year old great niece: Can I have a horse?

Lol Ann...so funny!

Today, I am grateful that I paid off my credit card. It feels so good to have that debt taken care of.

Grateful for the end of the work week.
Grateful for some quiet time.
Grateful to be not so obsessive anymore - working on this daily.
