Numblady 01-08-2021 03:57 AM

grateful to share the fondness for fresh bread and spring with you all.
Grateful to be settling in to the new job and getting the logistics of really working from home sorted. I know I’m late to that party but now I am here and can I just say sitting on a $20 folding IKEA chair does NOT work very well for full days of work.
Grateful to Dee for so many things, not the least of which is this new part.
Grateful to be reminded of my grandfather’s basement in their old house. My son wants to set up a fancy pegboard situation to store his nerf guns, which was how my granddad always stored tools. He had the hooks and then he drew an outline of the tool in question so he always knew where it went. We never would have had anything that organized in our house. I always marveled at it. Still do.
Grateful cheap coffee still tastes pretty good to me.
Grateful for this beautiful group and forums in general.

PalmerSage 01-08-2021 04:21 AM

Grateful that an early wake-up today reminded me of all the times I get to sleep later.
Grateful for telework.
Grateful for some good new habits that are starting to take root.
Grateful for a good conversation with my younger son last night, encouraging him and challenging him to do his best.
Grateful for former colleagues that are still good friends, and always come through for me.
Grateful for my sweet, patient dogs.
Grateful that my (almost) drinking dream from last night wasn't real.
Grateful to be sober.

Grateful for talking, in person, to someone yesterday.

RZ - Happy you are comfortable. Yes, budda - never too much budda. :yup:
Piotr - Nice that you had interaction - I'm out of practice!
Numblady - I feel your pain, sitting here on my cheap old office type chair that needs to be replaced. :) Don't even remember where I got it, but it's all wobbly & no support.
Grateful for optimism.
Grateful to be on good terms with those I alienated in the past.
Grateful for good intentions, even when they go astray.

When I was a kid, my best friend's mom made homemade bread often. As soon as a loaf was cooled enough to slice, she'd give us a slice with butter. :) :) Better than dessert. :)

Today I'm so very grateful for my critters and their devotion to me. :hug: Billie and Lily and Franny contribute to my well being every day. :)

Grateful for great salads and also chocolate.

Fearlessat50 01-09-2021 08:09 AM

Grateful for messages from my wonderful friend, least
Grateful for eight hours of sleep last night. Looking back, with exception of occasional bad nights, sleep has been one thing that has improved from the pandemic. With Mr F retired now, we sleep in until 6:19 am (strangely, our internal clock wakes us up exactly at this time most days). I have not been waking up in the middle of the night as I used to
Grateful the bread turned out amazing. I am learning how to increase the sourness. I’ve made two loaves now. Love Rusty’s reference to bread and buddha. A good business name would be The Bread Buddha. Perhaps in another life time 😊
((((Daisy))))
Grateful the collective good is coming through to fight evil forces
Grateful for my precious cogs. I need to spend more time with Charlie. Queen Daisy is getting all the love lately
Grateful to spend time on an art project today. Grateful to also go for a hike later
Grateful to schedule a therapy session for next week to work through grief
