I'm not grateful for the big towing bill, but I'm super grateful for the friendly and kind two truck driver who made a 260 mile round trip to get me and my broken down motorcycle home yesterday. Expensive day, but still a great adventure!

Oh Astro sorry about the problems with your motorbike. But pleased you got it home ok.

Daisy so pleased you’re home safely. We’ve had some strong winds and I was hoping all was well at your end. I’m pleased your holiday went well.

Least I like music too, it’s good for the soul, I think.

Grateful for another day sober
Grateful for an enjoyable day with family
Grateful for arriving home safely
Grateful for my bed later, I’m happily weary.

Grateful Astro is ok after his exasperating experience. So grateful you were not hurt.!
Grateful our Daisy is home and I hope had a wonderful time.
Grateful I'm loving my ARF volunteer experience and the others who work and volunteer there.
Grateful for a day to rest. It's been a long week. I have so many chores tomorrow then I get my epidurals on Tues. I opened up the rest of my week just because I zonked out for 2 days last time I had one.
Grateful for all my SR friends. Always wonderful reading the honest and powerful posts here. Love to all of you, my friends. ♥♥♥

Grateful Astro got home safely, and his bike also.

Thank you, Aly and Daisy
Aly, so great that you are enjoying the volunteering. Someday I’d love to do some type of volunteering again when I have more time. I used to volunteer at the humane society long ago
Daisy, I’m going to think about doing my pebbles in stages like that. Doing the base coat,letting it dry and having a bunch ready to paint is a good idea
Sorry about the tow expenses, Astro. I am glad you are home safe

Grateful for the wisdom of SR
Grateful for the wisdom that comes with age and experience
Grateful to have had fun playing mini golf today. I also played Pong Atari, which was the first video game I learned as a teenager
Grateful to play Aggravation after dinner.
Grateful my husband is on vacation the next two weeks and is going to get some errands done and spend extra time with son
Grateful to be naturally tired and going to bed soon
Grateful for each of you

Thanks everyone! Nah the only thing hurting is my credit card (ouch) and that too shall pass.

Grateful for the time I had with my daughter yesterday for breakfast, church, chores, and a little relaxation.

Daisy you are too sweet! That is such a nice thing to say! I hope you had loads of fun on holiday!! ♥
Grateful to be able to rest today. I have to have my epidurals tomorrow, my mom is taking me in the morning. Hopefully I won't sleep for days again, but if I do, I do. I really have been busy lately.
Grateful for all of you so much and your wonderful posts. We have a lot of different types and areas that we all live in and I love you all like family! Our SR family. Wishes for a great evening and good sleep for everyone!
Peace and love to all! ♥♥♥

I seem to have missed some posts last night somehow.

Thank you Mags, we did have one very windy day whilst we were away but not as bad as some places, all in all we were very lucky with the weather and we only had rain during the night.

Thank you Aly, I'm so pleased that you are loving your ARF work, it makes it so much easier when you enjoy what you are doing. You'll be in my thoughts tomorrow and if you do sleep for days, it's because you need to, so listen to what your body is telling you and do whatever you need to do. We will still be here looking out for you. xx

Fearless it's the first time I've done that with my pebbles, painted a base coat on a whole stash and it really worked out well, I shall be doing it all the time in future. I had my 3 g.kiddo's painting them today, they've been doing ladybugs and bee's and all kinds of things. My town has a F.B group for pebble painters and members paint the pebbles then hide them, writing a note on the back asking whoever finds them to take a photo, put it on the F.B page and re-hide them. It's fun for the kiddo's to see how far they go.

Grateful for another sober night at home.
Grateful I have my g.daughter sleeping over with my g.son, it's funny because there is only 5 months between them and she is head and shoulders taller than him and looks so much more grown up. They have a love/hate relationship, today they love each other, tomorrow will probably be a different story.
Grateful Astro got home safely and grateful he enjoyed his expensive adventure.
Grateful RAL is back with us. It's good to see you RAL, welcome back
Grateful to come to this thread and read your posts, I really look forward to them.
Grateful for each and every one of my cyber family. xxxx

Good to see you RAL!

Aly, I'm praying for the best with your epidurals and hope you're able to rest as much as possible.

Grateful to shake up my daily routine and attend a seminar today.

Good to see you Tatsy and RAL! Glad you are back.
Thank you, Astro and everyone else wishing me well.
Grateful for a smooth epidural. I thought I was getting my other one too, but the surgeon said they can't do more than one. So I'm going back to see him in a couple of weeks. Hopefully he can do it soon.
Grateful for a good surgeon. Grateful for the surgeon who sent me there. Wishing him well as he is 6 years clean this year. Grateful he was honest with me as he tries to rebuild his career.
Grateful for all of you and wishing you love and peace. ♥♥♥
