I skipped this yesterday and missed it.
- I'm grateful for the perspective it brings to my day and ...
- for the good news about Sarah's procedure - it may help her MS
- for a very good pet therapy session at the nursing home
- for being able to laugh with Claire about Good Food Box screw-ups
- for remembering to shovel the wet snow off the deck before it froze last night!

- yesterday was on track in all my food goals - salt, fiber, calories, soft etc. - I am grateful.

- scale going down

- I got the shelter and got out the info for the plant swap. It felt good getting it together because I really didn't feel like doing it this year.

- my cute little neighbor is a Daisey and she came over selling Girl Scout Cookies. DH said he would keep them in his car.

- family, friends, you all, FB, cell phone, internet

- music

* My friends on the gratitude thread, especially because they really care
* While I am not rich, I can afford the healthy foods and tools that I need to help me lose weight
* My warm house
* I am 55 and still have both of my parents. Many friends of mine lost their parents years ago.
* More than enough

Oh I like this thread! I admit I've gone on a couple of rants already and I'm so new here! LOL Anyway I do have a lot to be thankful for! So here goes! I'm grateful for:

*My son who does EA Sports Active with me everyday. He's a much better motivator than the trainers on the game!

*My husband who emails me everyday to tell me how much he loves me and that I can do whatever I set my mind to.

*My own home and fitness equipment. Such a blessing when you are too self-concious to go to the gym.

+ another good solid night of sleep
+ a day with nothing pressing - my own choices!

- my Thursday was a healthy day - I am grateful

- Yesterday I needed to take my mom all around to do her errands (2 banks, drug store and the grocery store) For the banks and drug store I didn't need to go in. I brought my journal and Beck book. It gave me alot of focused time. It was good because I am leaving for a few days today.

- As far as the food out of town goes, I am bringing some softish things - banana's, applesauce, oatmeal, no salt soup...Grateful for the willingness to plan ahead.

- the big snow is over for now and it's suppose to be clear driving this afternoon when we head out on the road. However, it's really cold out. Also, I am grateful for warmth on this extra cold morning.

- mom's back is feeling a little better

- my family, my friends, you all, FB, internet, cell phone, music
