Oh and our instructor postponed our first big quiz til Wednesday. Now I have plenty of time to study :)

Just getting some affirmation that I am loved and do matter from a few people lately. It really has meant a lot.

I'm thankful for my medical team
Thankful for their compassion and experience
Thankful for my PT student, he graduates in December and I think this is a perfect profession for him.
Thankful he works at my pace and gives me a nudge when I need to work harder
Thankful he is able to build my confidence each week to do or try to do something I wasn't able to do the week before

I'm thankful for my the beautiful place where I live, being close to the ocean and being able to see all the critters out my window. I'm thankful for a for gaining strength (now if I could just contain it). For a yummy salad. And for some good conversation....

My life and those that understand me.

...and, whatever comes up and whatever comes out....life on its wisdom taking care of me, finding its own ways and balance...

That I have found my Inner Peace :hangloose::hangloose::hangloose:

My new role at work, which is less stress than other roles I've held. I'm so thankful that I found a great dentist too, for the family of coworkers I've come to know over the past 2.5 years and for my very close lady friends, here at home and abroad. Moreso, I'm so grateful for life, and that life was relatively trouble free today -- which always brings such pleasure, especially when life isn't always trouble free.

My life and the freedom it affords me

I'm glad I made it through one more day, I had my pain issues but managed to hang in the game. Tomorrow is the second back burn to quiet the darn nerves that are causing the mess the first place, the first one is working like a charm.

The distraction of days full of business and nights of carefree fun. Karaoke tonight. My union brothers and sisters remind me that as one door closes, many others are there waiting for me to open them.

I'm thankful for meeting new members at BfP

Thankful
 

I am thankful that I met my lady here. She is perfect for me.

:cowboy:

For having learned resilience early in life...
For not being spoiled....
For all the people who came in and out of my life...I always learned something...
For a smart brain...
For my partner who inspires me intellectually every day...
For photography...
For finally realizing where REAL cowboys are from

♡♡♡

For sick days and vacation hours when sick days are used up at work! :hangloose:

For my wonderful butch spouse who loves and appreciates me.:hangloose::hangloose::hangloose:

I am thankful that I no longer have high blood pressure, and I no longer need to be on medication to manage it. I'm also thankful that I am no longer troubled with the back pain, that I have endured, for over two years. I still have some issues with my feet, however the pain has diminished 80%, which I truly am thankful for.

I am thankful ...
 

...for
The people in my life that have always been there for me or at least that is my perception of them. So sometimes I am thankful for my perception of this world and the people in it. I am also thankful for my improved ablity to keep the filter between my brain and my mouth in place. (Note I did state improved not perfected...)
*chuckling at myself* as I walk out the door

That i have painted far more of my triplex than i thought i could get done this summer.I am pleased and sore!

Thankful that my body can function on 5 hours of sleep for months (years) at a time. :hangloose:

For my meds.

So grateful for people who take the time to do the right thing!

I lost my eyeglasses yesterday and was in a funk cuz I wouldn't be able see tonight or rent a car on Tuesday and I really like these glasses (tortoise shell, cat eye) and got them for a good deal at Costco and on and on. I went everywhere yesterday looking for them and then went to the same places today and someone turned them in to the lost and found at the hotel I'm at.

That is so cool. They didn't have take the time to do that.

Really thankful for good people.

I am grateful for movies that were created before the year 2000 rolled around. That I had enough foresight to replace my collection of VHS with DVD's as they became available. Yet, to be honest I wish I had held on to some of those tapes but not as much as I wish that I had held onto my vinals.

I am grateful to have lived long enough to see the changes in home entertainment that have occurred. Just as I am grateful to have the knowledge and memories from the older methods used. That because of said experience I can find a good movie to watch or good book to read when everyone else is complaining that nothing is on. Mostly I am grateful for the above on nights like tonight when it is late, I am alone, I need to get out of my head, and a small break from reality just might lead to a good nights sleep.

Now if only I could do something about the length if my posts...lol

My Mom's health
Quality time with Mom
Cooler beautiful days
The NC mountains
That my roomie felt good and had a good day
THE FINDS
THE TRAFFIC rather lack of
Safe travels

Thankful for my roomie, who is always more concerned with taking care of everyone and making sure everyone has a good time

Thankful for her good idea, when she saw Mom's discourage when she wasn't finding as nice of gems as was in the bucket she was digging in, she took several nice stones from that bucket and discreetly, slipped them into Mom's bucket at intervals, so Mom was continually interested and excited. If you've never seen a 75 yr old woman, as excited as a child you have not lived

Thankful my roomie put a nice tiger's eye in Mom's bucket. Mom is having a necklace made from it.

Thankful that Willy was such a good boy all day and had as good time as we did

I'm thankful for this beautiful, relaxing weekend! It has made me appreciate everything more. I'm thankful I have two jobs, lotsa food to eat, my spouse and our dogs, our house in the woods, a car, all the little things that really matter. I'm blessed and don't take the time to really see that some days.:hangloose:

I'm thankful that when I logged into my school account about 5 minutes ago to cram in 3 assignments that I believed were due by 11:30pm, I found that they are open until tomorrow.

And no; I hadn't even read the instructions yet. I just remembered that there were 3 listed on my calendar and that two of them were writing assignments and one was a quiz. Have I read the course material, you ask? The answer is also no. :)

Now I can totally procrastinate for another whole day! I love life.

:typewriter:

I'm thankful I have some vacation time to use since my sick days are all used up. My poor spouse has been sick quite a bit and if I don't have sick or vacation time, my paycheck really sucks! :blink:

Success at work
My current mentality

Where do I begin?
Let's just say that I am grateful for the many many privileges and experiences I have had in my life...

and that difficult times were not wasted time but lessons...

And now I am more grateful than ever...because life is very beautiful and just the right constellations...
Finally...

:blueheels::byebye:

I'm thankful I'm still here...

Thankful for this day, my family, the beauty of Mother Nature, the work I do and love. Grateful for much, so much.

I'm thankful that I can whisper sweet things in several languages.

That I don't have to do hostels anymore. I love a nice hotel experience, and it really does take a huge amount of anxiety out of travelling. Bit pricey but oh so worth it. I deserve it!
