My Gratitude List

Hi everyone It was suggested to me to list out 5 things I am grateful for each day. I will start out general and get more detailed. My goal is to go at least 3 months without repeating

1. My family
2. My dog & cats
3. My friends
4. SR
5. That I have the ability to see

Today I am thankful for:
1. sleep
2. that I live close to work so I don't have a long drive
3. hugs
4. caffeine
5. manicures

At least one of the things I am thankful for each day is supposed to be something physical. I am thinking manicures is close enough

soberwolf - Yes, sunsets are the best
Just a short story, whenever I see a sunset I am reminded of a Lifesavers commercial from a long time ago where a father and son were sitting on a hill watching the sunset and the dad was whispering "going... going... gone". Once the sun set, the little boy leaned over and said "do it again daddy". It was one of the sweetest commercials I have seen. It is probably on YouTube or something but I don't really want to watch it again as I am afraid it won't be the same as I remember it
