Express your Gratitude

I'm grateful that I still don't mind shovelling snow! It's good exercise and a chance to visit with the neighbours when we take a break from shovelling...Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...
Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Just get through today. Tomorrow will look after itself when it becomes today, because today is all we have to think about.
Friendship is not about how many friends you have or who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it.

Re: Express your Gratitude
Much as I dislike winter I am still grateful for the changing seasons. Hope you had some hot cocoa or coffee after all that shoveling, Cowboy!Dill
Dont forget, you can: start late, start over, be unsure, try and fail AND STILL SUCCEED!
If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you will find an excuse.

I'm grateful we didn't get the freezing rain that was forecast..Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...

Re: Express your Gratitude
I'm grateful that I managed to look up in the sky last night and see the Super Blue Blood moon before the clouds moved in! I was hoping to get to see it setting this morning but there was no way. The cloud cover was so thick!
Tomorrow is Groundhog's Day. I sure hope that fella' does not see his shadow and that spring comes early! That being said, I was told the other day by one of our farmer friends that lightning in January means we'll have cold weather up until June! I hope that's a false one! We had a pretty dramatic thunderstorm here a couple weeks ago.Dill

I’m grateful to be done with my online alcohol ink course. I learned some things, it was worthwhile. But I had to paint trees freehand, and I don’t have that skill. I will continue to find ideas that work for me on YouTube videos. And I want to finish painting some small dishes that will hold plants.
It’s February, and the activities in my life are picking up. Weekly chorus rehearsals have begun, three gardening meetings this month plus a symposium, and two gardening presentations. I ordered my tomato seeds, but others need to be ordered for starting next month.
I am so grateful for my busy and fulfilling life.My life is better without alcohol, since 9/1/12. My sobriety tool is the list at permalink 236 on the toolbox thread under monthly abstinance.

Re: Express your Gratitude
I'm grateful for the breakthroughs in technology that allow us to learn more about our world and our universe. Specifically I was excited to read about a new laser technology called LiDAR that has enabled archeologists to make a huge finding in Guatemala of a network of Maya cities. Here's a link if you haven't already read about it:

I am thankful for every morning that I wake. And I am thankful to live in a great city that is loving, understanding and forgiving. I love being Minnesotan!"Don't be ashamed of your story. It will inspire others".

Re: Express your Gratitude
I'm grateful that I happened to look out the front window just as a herd of deer were gathering and preparing to jump our pasture fence and head into the woods for the night. What a beautiful parade as they jumped one by one and sometimes by twos. Lovely!Dill
