Grateful for the smell of spring that came with the rains yesterday.

Grateful for the truck camper. Henry and I met up with a friend outside Sedona for some sun and vitamin D last weekend. Henry gets grumpy and cranky without the sun.

Congrats on 13 Dev!
Daisy, glad you are ok from the floods
Mags, glad your step mum is ok
Numblady, I have never made French Onion soup. It is delicious though. Glad yours turned out well. It sounds so good paired with some fresh homemade sourdough!
I agree with the comments about not needing to please everyone. It’s a work in progress for me
Glad you are back, Aly
FBL, good for you on the lifestyle changes
Grateful for a fun day with a good friend yesterday. There is always so much to talk about. We can go on for hours. I made no comments to her recognizing she drinks too much and is thinking about cutting back. Grateful for this. Awareness is the first step.
Grateful for rain
Grateful for a warm cozy house, comfy bed and surroundings
Grateful to work on my paint by numbers today
Grateful sonny boy has a friend coming over today

Grateful you are able to support your sponsee, Rusty

Grateful that some people had snow even if we didn't .....

Grateful that my great-niece got to build a snowman and have a snowball fight with my nephew

Grateful that a snow and ice-free day meant that we were able to go out walking and enjoy the beautiful sunshine

Grateful for my life and everyone who's in it ❤❤❤

Courage - You're useful every day - just by showing up here and being you.
RZ - I'm sure you were a great comfort to sponsee. That's a hard time for people to stay sober.
Des - I'm with Henry - definitely cranky & grumpy w/o the Vit D. Need to sit outside & bake in it a while - and it'll be a few months until that happens here. Glad you're enjoying yourself with the camper.
FBL - Great job on the weight loss. Jealous.
Daisy - Let us hope golf course owner is none the wiser. Glad they had fun.
Magsie - Happy to know your step mum is out of danger & back home.
Grateful for sun, even if it's 8F.
Grateful to be easing into my diet & doing ok. Kind of miss the holiday sugary stuff.
Grateful for books, movies, the internet. We've been at this distancing thing for almost a year - who would've thought it?
Grateful to share a bit of your life.

Grateful we are getting rain too. It is beautiful out now, cold, but a big rain storm is coming in. Grateful for the moisture.
Grateful for a good night's sleep.
Grateful that the pandemic has allowed my mom and I to spend some low key time together. We both have our ups and downs, but we're trying to make the best of it. Surprisingly, it's working out better than I would have expected.
Dev, congrats!
Rusty, I hope you are feeling ok these days.
Least, thank you for your message.
FBL, good luck on the diet.
Mags, I have something for you, I just have to get to the post office! Thinking of you.
Grateful for the Grat Pack and my friends here.

Aly - I'm glad things are better - I know it's been a challenge at times.
Hi Owen!
Grateful for another sober, drama-free day.
Grateful for sunshine all day today. Scary how much it affects my mood when it's gloomy out.
Grateful to be looking at spring clothes.
Grateful we've been able to express our gratitude - even during a pandemic. Very admirable.
