I spent the day in bed today. I learned how much I do everyday, because I didn’t do it today. I’m grateful for the ralization that even when it seemed like I wasn’t getting much done, I was still getting many things done. What are you grateful for today?

I am thankful for the mild weather we’re having. It is a nice break from the extreme cold and wet heavy snow that we’ve had early this year. I am thankful that we raised some money on our silent at auction for our ladies club scholarship, loan and grant program and that one of our nominees received a grant of $3,000. I love helping young women in financial need apply for assistance. It i inspiring to meet such bright young women.

I’m thankful for a chance to visit not-local family this weekend. We don’t see each other often enough.
I was really tired the other night and was so happy to pull on my flannel nightgown and climb into bed to read a while before sleep. I realized how thankful I am for my flannel nightgowns. I’m pretty sure living through all those Minnesota winters has something to do with that. 😊
I am thankful for our baby, who will be one on Friday. It was such a hard pregnancy, really a colossal struggle for the whole family, but she brings so much joy to all of us. I hoped all through every miserable day of that pregnancy that I would be looking back in gladness one day, and I absolutely am. Worth every second!
I am thankful for people who give unexpected compliments, because those are the best kind! Case in point: I got in line at the post office yesterday, and the woman in front of me, who I know slightly, turned around to see who was there, and said, “Oh, Hello, Heidi! I thought I felt something warm behind me.”
I shall see if I can spread her friendliness this week.

I am so thankful for those who came before me in my family, who were such great people and left a legacy of hard work, perseverance, caring and love.
We have moved to an area of the country (northern VA) that is much more costly than I was used to. Not what we were expecting in retirement! But family is here, and we need to make this work.
So I am thankful that I live within walking distance of a reasonably-priced grocery store (Lidl — similar to Aldi.) Both the prices and the walk do me good.

I am thankful to be able to answer the voicemail for my husband and son. I can do this from home.
I am also thankful, very thankful, that we were able to find what my husband needs for ski instructing. He’s the disorganized sort (but he tries) so I sneak in and get all together in the spring. Sometimes I do a better job than others. This year went well!!!!
I’m so thankful for a midwife who answered her phone at 4:59pm today, just a minute before she was supposed to be closed, and she helped me get a prescription sorted out that the pharmacy had messed up. Just grateful- I really needed that medicine and would have had to wait until Monday to get the issue fixed had she not been so compassionate.
