Grateful my e-mail account is back up, if only temporarily. Goodbye Vista operating system, hello Windows 7. Installing it this weekend.

Grateful to know such knowledgable people - the types of talents I see in people amaze me.

Appreciated the beautiful weather today in advance of the coming storm this weekend - isn't how that always happens before a hurricane?

Grateful to wish all you good folk here on SR goodnight...

Grateful I made the choice to keep on driving and not stop at the store for a bottle of wine on the way home from work. Grateful I will wake up clear-headed and ready for Friday.

Tomorrow will likely be another day of temptation, but tomorrow is another day.

Grateful for a new opportunity at work.

Night everyone, sleep tight.

Grateful for the weekend and a chance to slow down and relax.

Thinking of all on the east coast who are in the path of the hurricane, and praying for the best outcome with least destruction.

Astro, I will second that. Here in Houston we are BAKING in the heat, but at least we are not dealing with a hurricane.

Grateful that (thanks to my new supplier) I don't have to order any more of my dog's insulin until November. Grateful also that it's so inexpensive.

Thanks so much, calico & Carol!! I'm in North Carolina, but far enough inland that we didn't have anything too noticeable here. Often, we get tornadoes here when there are hurricanes at the coast, but not today, thank heavens!! Certainly grateful for that.

Also grateful for a nice visit & game of Scrabble with a friend. She cooked burgers which made up for the fact that she beat me by over 70 points. teehee. And a third gratitude item, I am really grateful that after the third turn until the end of the game, I didn't ask about the score. I am learning to truly ENJOY PLAYING games today rather than stressing about who's winning and spoiling my fun. That's progress!

Love and hugs,
Eddie
