I have some employees like that! The heck with 'em. I'm grateful our staff got to watch some classic rockers perform the Beatles White Album last night. The music was fantastic. Grateful for 5 young'uns in the home and piles of pancakes for breakfast.
Least, a huge congrats on that first decade!

Grateful for a really good, but very busy shift last night. I was on my own until about 5, when I leave, but I thought my friend might be back from Dubai and she was. Grateful she helped me fold towels and blankets and various other things. Grateful for her pictures.
Grateful that although my back hurts, I can stand it.
Grateful the Girl Scouts donated so very many towels to ARF! We were washing and putting away towels like crazy.
Grateful ARF was able to take 62 cats and kittens who had run out of time in LA.
Grateful for our Luke, whom we adopted when he was 6, now he's 10 and pure angel♥
Grateful I am free. Sometimes we forget we're all free in different way.
Love and peace to anyone struggling or suffering tonight.
Have a wonderful evening, Grat Packers.

Grateful to celebrate my tenth anniversary with Billie, by taking her for a long walk and a short walk. She always loves to check her peemail. 
I like watching her just being a dog.
Grateful for the critters of the Grat Pack.

I am glad you could celebrate in your own special way, least! You are an inspiration!
Yes, fun game Aly
I missed a whole day. Was overwhelmed with so much going on and the time got away from me. Grateful to have gone to a super fun holiday party last night and have no desire to drink. People know by now I don’t drink, so it would have been weird but I didn’t want to anyway. Grateful I am not in the least bit uncomfortable anymore with being a nondrinker. No explanation needed. Grateful for the gal at the party who is also a nondrinker and to bond through so many other common experiences. Grateful that when sonny boy was accidentally kicked by a friend, husband offered to take him home and come back to get me later so I could stay longer at the party. I really needed that social time. Grateful to meet two other people who are dealing with parents with dementia and feel I am not alone
Grateful that when a really restless sleep led to a panic attack (was anxious worrying about stuff with my Dad), my husband helped calm me down. This was at about 1 am. I have not experienced a panic attack in years
Grateful I have a short term anti-anxiety prescription if I need to use it.
Grateful my Dad received the preassembled Xmas tree we sent him and was very happy about it. Grateful he’s been in a good mood since things have been getting sorted out. Grateful for his two closest friends.
Grateful to have the tree up, decorations done and lights up
Grateful to be volunteering for a museum field trip tomorrow
Grateful sonny boy is playing guitar
Grateful for each of you

Grateful to be winding the day down sober.
Grateful that my sister was hit with some news regarding her health that will either put her on the right fork of the road or the wrong one. If she takes the wrong one and keeps drinking and drugging, she could die. She's in a lot of pain. My mom has taken her to urgent care, labs, another ER visit for my sister. I've been praying for her so much. I hope she takes this seriously.
Grateful for my mom.
Grateful for a nice day and a nice walk with Luke.
Grateful I got all our laundry done.
Grateful so much for all of you who show up everyday. I appreciate you!!! ♥
Love, peace and gratitude for all of you! ♥♥♥

Very grateful to see you, Daisy and I’m sorry you’ve had so much on your plate! Have been thinking of you
Aly, that’s terrible about your sister. I hope she can put herself on the right path. Please keep taking care of yourself first priority.
Love that Beatle song least!
Grateful to be here. It’s been a hectic day. Actually, despite things that went wrong, there were so many positive things to be grateful for. Sonny boy woke up in the middle of the night vomiting all over the bedroom floor since he didn’t make it to the bathroom in time. He went to bed with chills and fever and never went to sleep but we had no idea until it was 1 am. Poor kid. Such a sweetheart. Grateful he was such a sport when he had to miss the holiday gift shop and field trip at school. He was feeling better mid morning but crappy again tonight. Really hope he’s back to 100% soon. He is scheduled for black belt test Sat so the timing couldn’t be worse. Oh, I guess it could be - he could have gotten sick the night before. Keeping fingers crossed
Grateful that when I went to run an errand this morning when son was feeling better, I came home to find him playing his guitar with the cats sitting together on the living room rug looking sweetly up at him. It was so sweet. My son said he was playing a concert for them. Grateful to play a fun game of Scrabble and debate over which words are allowed or not, like the words Tao or Jedi.
Grateful to get a call from my Dad’s AL place and to be told we do not have to worry about finances. At all. Ever. Dad has enough for now. If assistance is needed later, he will have financial aid and there is nothing to pay back. She explained to me how it all worked with their nonprofit organization. I was so overwhelmed with gratitude. My Dad does not qualify for VA benefits. He missed it by a year since he served during a non war time period for benefit purposes. He would not qualify for Medicaid either, though I’ve heard there are creative strategies and trusts. I’m just so thankful that we don’t even have to worry about it!
Grateful the staff are helping so much
Grateful to set up mail order pharmacy and help my dad with his medication schedule
Grateful I have a legal consultation tomorrow on other stuff
Grateful my boss had been supportive regarding the need to take a little more time off dealing with this.
So so grateful I am staying sober and I am feeling confident and strong
Grateful for all of you!

(((Daisy))) Hope you feel better soon.
Tonight I am grateful for Billie and her devotion. She loved me back to life after Jack died and I was drowning in grief. Grateful that God sent me to the Humane Society that Tuesday morning over three years ago. I was looking for a dog to love and Billie was looking for someone to love her. We are perfect for each other. Grateful for 'mans best friend'.

...or womans best friend! lol!
Great news Fearless! I'm so happy for you.
The picture I have in my mind of your son playing a concert for the cogs! Oh my gosh, just so cute. That would be a great scene for a rock painting!? Maybe. I hope the little guy is feeling better soon.
