Grateful for the little random acts of kindness that people often do. Just now I was walking Billie and waiting to cross the street. The van I was waiting for, stopped and motioned for us to cross. I waved and blew them a kiss. Little things like that just make my day. And I get just as happy about little grats as I do about big ones.

Aly, OMG! Zacahary’s pizza is the best! Not sure if you go to the one in/near Rocklin? Mr F and I used to go there all the time. I haven’t been there in years. I need to take my son there sometime. He would love it. Have a great lunch!

Aly and Fearless, I'm in the Zach's pizza fan club too. I lived in Chicago for a time, and miss that stuffed pizza (and all of Chicago's amazing food), but Zachary's does the trick.
Grateful the weekend is here and Mr. T gets his second shot, and I get one too.
Grateful to build bridges with the boss I had difficulty with last year ... we both are trying sincerely and there is more kindness there.
Grateful for my tea and my birdwatching time, and the audubon warbler and hermit thrust who visited today.
CBS, glad to see you here with the grat pack! And grateful for your daughter's scholarship achievement!

Tursi, it's almost as good as Lou Malnati's in Chicago. I lived in Chicago for a long time too, but a native CA. At least I can get a great pizza fix once in a while. I love the one in Berkeley but we have one kind of close now and it's good. Glad you and Fearless like it a lot too. I hadn't had it for a long time either. It's soo good and I ate too much.
Grateful for a lovely day. Grateful for all the support and feel good vibes I get here.
Grateful to do a favor for my mom later.
I have to get back to checking off the things from my list. I wish they would extend the IRS filing deadline. Things are just flying by. I still need to deal with my IRS situation. . Grateful I can do it, I just don't want too.
I haven't seen Mags for a while here. I hope all is well.
Love and peace to all of you, my friends. Have a great day.

Thank you, my sweet friends. It means a lot.
CBS - Grateful to see you here!
Aly - I'm guessing authentic deep dish pizza isn't like Pizza Hut's version. I've never had it.
May 17 is when taxes are due - but you probably already know that.
Fearless - It'll be good to do those trips - enjoy yourself.
Grateful to not eat junk food for a whole week.
Grateful for warm weather & sun, despite the high winds.
Grateful my Peace Lilly is already starting to bloom. Early this year.
Grateful my cousin requested donations to the animal rescue where she got her dog.
Grateful for decent health - may I never take it for granted.

Actually, Hevyn, I didn't know that. Thank goodness you told me. Whew! I don't have to stress out not.
Thank you, love.

CBS, that's cool that your daughter got into grad school with a scholarship!

I'm really grateful for my health today. Had to have a covid test before my colonoscopy Monday. It took a very short time and I already got the results back - it's negative!! Yippee! Now just eagerly awaiting my second vaccine shot.

Grateful for all this pizza talk! I grew up on NY style (thin crust) but I've always wanted to try a really good deep dish. I'm guessing Pizzeria Uno in the 90s wasn't super authentic?

Grateful that my son has another shot at the SAT.
Grateful that my younger son is usually so sweet about watching TV with us - we recently discovered a Netflix show about the history of video games, which has really interested my husband and him.
Grateful for another sunny day.

Grateful it's Saturday.
Grateful for my sweet, patient dogs.
Grateful to realize that sobriety has changed me so much for the better.
