The Sunday paper -- a Sunday morning just doesn't seem right without one.

5/29/2009 Gratitude

I am grateful that my eye doctor is being so patient with me and helping me find the right contact lens solution for my nearsightedness and now my need for reading glasses! I am grateful for the warm sunny day. I am grateful for the NBA Playoff party we are attending tonight with friends. I am grateful for the two good night's of sleep I have gotten -- in a row! I am grateful for iced tea.

5/26/2009 Gratitude

I got a GREAT night's sleep last night -- the first one in over two weeks! I am so grateful! I also feel much better today and was actually able to work out a little bit. I am back on track.

5/25/2009 Gratitude

What a nice afternoon with friends today. Casual, easy, tasty. A great way to spend a day off.

5/22/2009 Gratitude

Today I am grateful for moisture -- vaporizers, steam showers, cold iced tea, slushies from Sonic, hot teat. They all have made me feel better this week while I have been sick with a terrible cough. I am on my way to the doctor and so I am also grateful that I could get an appointment today. Hopefully I will be feeling much better in the next 24 to 48 hours and can enjoy our Memorial Day BBQ with friends.

5/20/2009 Gratitude

I am so grateful that this virus I have right now, hasn't gotten worse! I am feeling a little better and am hoping the worst of it is over. It is no fun being sick, but since I had nothing I had to do this week (being out of work does have its advantages) I could just rest and take care of myself. I am also grateful for those Sonic happy hour drinks at half-price. They hit the spot when you aren't feeling well. Finally, I am grateful for this nice warm (some might say hot) weather. I love summer!

5/18/2009 Gratitude

I am so grateful I made it through last week's extended travels to family functions! All went smoothly and while I am exhausted, I feel blessed to have been able to be there for it all. But even more so, I am happy to be home. Despite some serious problems thrown at me this past year, my life is good and I need to remind myself of that more often!

5/8/2009 Gratitude

I am grateful I slept well last night. I went to bed not feeling well and was afraid it would be a rough night. I think I was just detoxing a little from the free cranial session I had yesterday. I am also grateful that our trip to see family is finally here. It has been a very rough and nerve-racking path to this coming week and it will feel good to actually participate in the events, and then put them behind me. I look forward to coming home to a greater sense of peace in my life with little or no obligation before me. Perhaps that will be a good time to find a better connection with myself and spirit. I will be off for a week -- just know that I will be grateful for my week ahead. Happy Mother's Day.

5/7/2009 Gratitude

I am so grateful for a healing yoga class last night. I left class feeling good. I am also grateful for the free dinner my yoga instructor purchased for me. I have had a lot of people be very generous to me these months of unemployment and I need to remember that and pay it forward when I can, in ways that I can. I am grateful for this warm, sunny day. These kinds of days always make me feel better. And finally, I am grateful for the free cranial sacrial session I have this afternoon. It comes at a good time as my neck and jaw have been bothering me. Thank you.

5/5/2009 Gratitude

I am grateful for no sounds in the night last night. I am grateful that the car cost less than $100 to fix. I am grateful that my husband has the day off. I am grateful I got a hair cut today. I am grateful that I have a free meditation class to go to tonight. I am grateful that American Idol is on tonight.

5/4/2009 Gratitude

I am thankful for the monthly meditation service we attended yesterday. I always feel better after attending a meditation event and am looking forward to going to another event on Tuesday. I am also grateful for my new iTouch iPod -- it is fun and will come in handy next week when traveling!

5/1/2009 Gratitude

I am grateful for the free lunch I received today (the clam chowder was YUMMY!) I am also grateful for the two hour middle of the day movie break with my husband. The movie wasn't that great, but escaping reality for a little bit was nice. Finally, I am grateful for Sex and the City ON DEMAND -- unedited, full versions of the show!
