Gratitude Journal #48

Today, I am grateful for a peaceful weekend.

Today, I am grateful for sunshine following rain...even though my air conditioning went out yesterday and it's already boiling in my house of many windows.

Today, I am grateful for chocolate and coffee and homemade pizza and whole grilled chickens.

I guess today is a day to be grateful for the basic pleasures of life: rest, sun, rain, and food.

What are you grateful for today?

  1. I am grateful for a husband that cooks, friends that care, a job that I enjoy, beautiful blue sky in the morning and chocolate, in any form ;-)

  3. susan,
    i have been away on vacation visiting family, and not able to comment much. i am soo sorry about Hoover. that is such a difficult thing to deal with. i absolutely loved the quote about a dog's unconditional love preparing us for God's unconditional love. wow!
    i am now off from work for a few days which is always such an amazing feeling....time to do things that need to be done and things i love to do. fun!!

    so today, i am reminded again how blessed i feel to have found you... to get to know a little about you and your amazing family... to find constant, daily inspiration for cards, and friends, and life.
    you add so much joy to my life!!
    thank you.

  4. Right now I am grateful that my 7-year-old and 4-year-old can play nicely for almost five minutes without me needing to referee them, so that I can sip my coffee and waste time online.

    My verification word is 'viredi'. Doesn't that sound like the name of a paint color in a spectacular shade of green?
