Grateful for a relatively quiet Christmas this year. Grateful for so much less drama than in other times.
I'm a little worried about my oldest nephew. He has MD and a very low thyroid and he's supposed to be getting treatments and I don't think he is. He's working so hard and looked so tired. Grateful for him and God bless him.
Grateful for good food, shelter, and all the blessings I sometimes take for granted.
Grateful for the Grat Pack and the friendships I've made here.
Love and peace to all.

Daisy - I loved the beautiful picture of St. Elphin's.
Notch - My sentiments exactly. Too many years spent in that 'other world'.
Grateful for all the lovely Christmas posts. It was a peaceful, fun day. Not a typical Christmas, but we're all still here - doing the very best we can. I'm proud of us.

I'm glad you liked the pic of St Ephins, if every you have a bit of spare time and if you're interested in history, Google St Elphins church, Warrington, Cheshire, it's amazing.

Devizes, I'm very proud of you, you are doing so well, keep on doing whatever it is that you're doing, it's working. xx

Prayers for your nephew Aly. xx

Grateful to wake up this morning.
Grateful to feel well.
Grateful that Storm Bella doesn't seem to have done much damage other than knocking my pots over in the garden and sending my Christmas tree in a big pot rolling down the path.
Grateful to be indoors cozy and warm on this wild and windy day.
Grateful to have my lovely daughter and her little family round for a Boxing day buffet yesterday ( they are in our Covid bubble), we had a family tournament of dominoes, it was such fun.
Grateful that Christmas is now over.
Grateful for the Internet and all my friends who live in the laptop.


Love to all of you and whatever you do, stay safe. xxx

Grateful that the huge conifer which came down in the garden last night missed our windows (just)

Grateful that no-one was hurt and that we have a free day so we can deal with it!

Grateful to still be bulimia-free despite sudden cravings yesterday

Grateful for everyone here and all your wonderful support ❤❤❤

Grateful for sweet peace and quiet as the kids are with my parents for several days.
Grateful for the beautiful pic of St. Elphin’s. Will also try to check the history later!
Grateful Bella did not do too much damage to those of you who post here.
Grateful to have an experience with my mother where pics of my brother kept coming up in the random shuffle on Xmas. It was really uncanny. I am not one to believe in such things but it kind of felt like he wanted to be present with us. Like pictures that I’ve never seen come up came up several times, in addition to ones I had seen before.
Grateful Fearless is allowing herself to experience the grief. And also on a more mundane note that she’s thinking of venturing into sourdough bread. I am too, though I think I’ll cheat and get the starter from a bakery.
Grateful to be spending some time doing the things I can’t seem to do with kids underfoot. Basically, collecting all the crap from around the house and organizing it—then getting rid of at least some of it.
Grateful to be going for a walk with a friend later. The kind of thing I could almost never dream of doing with my old job.
Grateful for all of you so much.

Grateful for sleeping in, although I will need to do a major schedule reset when it's time to go back to work.
Grateful I'm FINALLY done wrapping presents.
Grateful I got some cleaning done yesterday, and no plans for today, so it's laundry time!

Grateful for a fun time with my sweet little nieces and nephews last night, they are SO cute.
Grateful to be sober.

Daisy - I read that the clock chimes on the quarter hour & spire is 281 ft. tall. It's a treasure.
Grateful for a non-alcoholic Christmas. (Would love to relive some of those I spent in a fog.)
Grateful for chocolate - even though MrH went overboard.
Grateful for the sun & no precipitation.
Grateful for the tree lights & candles.
Grateful for peace & tranquility.

Thank you, Daisy so very much. I love the picture of your church. What a beautiful place to worship. Hope you are well and Mr. DB is getting better. My nephew is a worry and I love him so much. I know you know.
Grateful to get drive through communion this morning and Luke got his blessing.
Grateful for Mags, my special friend.
Prayers for Rusty.
Hoping Fearless is traveling safely to TX for her eulogy, which I know she will do a smashing job on. Thinking of you.
Grateful for all of the Grat Pack!
