So grateful for the most delicious tomatoes that I actually grew.

My cherry tomatoes are doing really well too. Funny story, I was watching all these youtubes and decided I had early blight. (I am a beginner, lol) So I cut off A LOT of leaves and branches. Suddenly, I looked and noticed I had Charlie Brown's tomato plant. It was so sad and pathetic looking, my friends laughed and thought it would die for sure. It's now over 5' and producing a lot delicious tomatoes. Next year, I will mulch the top of the soil and maybe stop self diagnosing.

I envy you your tomatoes, LMN, I would love to grow veggies.

Today I am grateful for a full day of rest yesterday and for sunshine today to get out and see nature in.

I am grateful that my new medication doesn't nauseate me much.

And that my baby ospreys in the nest near my home are showing off stretching their wings and preparing to fly one day soon.

Grateful today to find a knob for my air conditioner that isn't perfect but works well. It's sooooo hot, I cannot do without air.

Today, I am grateful to be alive and am energized and hopeful. It has been quite a journey these past many years.

I will continue to believe that there is light at the end of the tunnel, to not give up, to always keep moving forward.

I am grateful all seem to be doing well in my family and especially that my mom and MIL are forging ahead, are strong, who are much loved.

I love that Ann. I am so thankful that my friend is having a wonderful time at her family reunion. They rented a multimillion dollar home and the pictures are stunning. I am glad I can live vicariously though her, lol.

Awww, PJ, I love you too. I am grateful for PJ's blue support whales and accordian pants...the very mental image brings me to guffah and snorkle.

I am grateful for snazzy turban wraps, wigs covered by a health plan and hats that make statements (other than "this chick is bald")

Also grateful that my baldness is a result of my good medication and not of my disease which will be eradicated and kicked to the curb shortly.

Oh I am definitely grateful for granny pants, those comfy cotton roomy warmers that always stay exactly where they are supposed to stay.

I am grateful for perfect days, sunny and warm and ospreys beginning to fledge.

Life is good.

Today I am grateful that Ann has her granny pants and that they stay where they are meant to be. Ann, you give a whole new meaning to "put on your big girl panties."

Love you my friend!

Grateful to all who frequent this thread.

Grateful for Ann's wonderful sense of humor. I am also loving the cottage by the water avatar and, in a way, wishing I could be there --- no kidding, really and truly. I sometimes dream of being able to "escape" to such a place. I know I could "rent" something like that for a weekend somewhere in the state in which I live in the USA (we have a beautiful state, plenty of parks, plenty of water, plenty of places to escape) but usually make excuses because of other commitments.

Anaya, there is nothing like a little cottage on a cool lake to lift our spirits. Sunrise and sunset take on new meanings when the loons call over the water. Please treat yourself to at least a short stay, you soooo deserve the peace and quietude.

PJ, the miracle of love brought your son to connect with you again and I am so darn happy for you and proud of all you have done to earn his trust.

LMN, my mother used to call underwear "dainties". She would hang the dainties on a special clothes line between other lines, so the neighbours didn't see them. Me? My granny pants can flap in the wind like a 4th of July flag and I would expect the neighbours to salute as they passed.

I am grateful for everyone here who makes me laugh and who remind me of how much I have to be grateful for. Today I am grateful to have a husband who likes grocery shopping and always manages to bring home some special treats that weren't on the list.

It's the little things, yes?
