I am gratefrul that I got an interview last week with a new school district. Even though I'm not sure that it went so well (I suck at interviews), I'm still thankful that I got my foot in the door.

mauvaisroux 03-09-2004 09:30 PM

I am thankful for mother earth today. i can feel springtime in my bones.

Noodles913 03-10-2004 08:58 AM

Ditto! Cept it's been summertime like here...91° we hit yesterday!! I am grateful that my bones aren't aching & I am not sick anymore thanks to the sunshine and dry weather.

Noodles :thanks: the :sunny:!!!!

squeaker 03-10-2004 10:02 AM

Yeah well, *pppppbbbbbbtttt*

I had to scrape ice of my car this morning.

Noodles913 03-10-2004 10:13 AM

Feel free to move here anytime, squeak!! Jobs are a plentiful, rent and housing is cheap, and no smog!! :D Just got the 100°+ heat in the summertime to deal with. :lol: "But it's a dry heat." No squitos, no fleas, no bugs in general! They all keel over. hahahahaa :df:

Teufelchen 03-10-2004 12:18 PM

Squeak - my thoughts are with you. It is sooo difficult to see a child sick. You can't explain anything and you want to alleviate their suffering. I have nephews that I adore to death too.

I am grateful for my health. I say this because I was speaking to a friend yesterday who has fibromyalga and she is in pain almostly constantly.

I am also grateful for changing seasons. I love the fall.

Do you have seasons Noodles? :?:

Yeah...

Winter = December--January--& some of February
Spring = End of February--March--& if we're lucky, end of March too.
Summer = End of March to Mid October with a break from the heat when the monsoons roll in during July and August
Fall = End of October until Mid December

Keep in mind the temps still usually hover up and down in the 60's--80's during Fall...Usually when we get the coldest it is in January & Feburary. We got down to 19° in January!! That was COLD!! Brrrrr....

mauvaisroux 03-11-2004 07:31 AM

Gee my heart bleeds for you Noodles, especially those days when it hit -49 with the windchill here! :lol:

Oh, and we usually have a couple of snow falls between now and April :rolleyes: so I don't officially pack away my fall/winter clothes until May!

On that note...Happy and grateful to live in a beautiful country with season changes - my favorite time of year is fall :D

squeaker 03-11-2004 09:35 AM

Thanks Teufelchen. He is doing much better.

Noodles - I like my seasons, and as much as I don't like the cold, I would not want to live somewhere that warm.

ellis 03-11-2004 09:53 AM

Oh... fall. My favorite, too, Mauvais. :yes: Actually, this weather is pretty nice right now. It's going up to 7 degrees celcius today, and I've hung out my laundry. I'm grateful for that. :)
I'm seriously thinking of setting up my hammock. Although I inadvertantly left the poles out all winter, and some of them are still imbedded in the snow...
And I'm grateful for all my wonderful, supportive friends and family. :grouphug:

Noodles913 03-11-2004 02:48 PM

7 Degrees Celcius?! :yikes: That's cold.

I like the seasons...really I do. I miss that about Oregon. But I just cant live where it gets too cold for long months at a time. My arthritis just about crippled me in the winters of 1999 & 2000 and I was just a human body in a bed. My hubby says "Angel, you were so bad you didn't even get on the COMPUTER for days..." Now thats bad. I vaugely remember much cept that I couldn't walk down stairs so he would bring me my meals to my bed. Chemo didn't help matters any.

We sure get alot of snow-birds here from your country...and from our cold states. That's why Arizona is full of senior citizens in the winter...they all come here to de-frost! :lol:

I am grateful that I have good friends that love me enough to know I can't BS them about my feelings no matter how hard I try and even though things will always change, they'll stand by me with those changes and help me along. (Hidden meaning behind this...will explain soon soon soon!! :D )

blugirrl1 03-11-2004 04:20 PM

The first winter i moved up north I spent in bed, or running to a hot bubble bath and back to bed. literally. begged my hubby please take me home. it has gotten a little better but i still hate winter. guess you can't take the southern gal out of me.

ellis 04-05-2004 12:43 PM

I'm grateful that the sun is shining today. It's BEAUTIFUL out! (no comments please, Mauvais. :lol: )

mauvaisroux 04-05-2004 03:50 PM

oh ellis.......;) Actually I am happy and grateful to see some sun today too -although it is bitter cold out. It was grey and rainy/snowing for the last few days - good to feel the sun on my face this morning :sunny:

hannah_phi 04-05-2004 09:29 PM

I'm so excited that the time changed! It was a pain getting up this morning, but when I got out of class at 6:50 it was still light outside! Yay, no more walking across campus in the dark!

ellis 04-06-2004 07:26 AM

I agree, Hannah! :)

It's another beautiful day! (cold, but we won't mention THAT, will we, Mauvais. ;) )
I've started some new meds, and I've got the day to myself... feeling pretty damned good. :D
