The Grateful Thread

I am grateful I have people in my life I can be silly with and laugh uncontrollably with and who see the wonder with me of being alive
They teach me so much

I'm grateful for the people who not only tell me but show me what i mean to them by their presence in my life day to day, and for the courage they show of opening up to me and allowing me to open up to them, regardless of what may or may not come from it. It's a personal adventure that I feel is crucial to our journeys, and it gives each other all the more meaning when we take that leap and allow it to happen for us to grow.

Today I am especially, specially grateful that I met my wife 18 years ago, that we got together 15 years ago and that we have been married for 10 years as of today! She has the patience of a saint, a heart of gold, and fortunately for me, she does tolerate fools gladly!

This was our first dance - get it?!? :lol:

On the other hand....Humming Birds & Orioles are back and using my feeders!! Yay!!!!! :woohoo:

I'm grateful that someone else has recognised that for every "rant" there's also something to be grateful for ...

Thank you, Kitsu ...

Always the Silver lining in life...Just got to look for it. Even if you are looking through Teary Itchy Eyes :woohoo: :lol:

for finally getting a full time job that has benefits, isn't too physically demanding, is somewhat enjoyable, has benefits....

For my patient Master, who understands the drama on my plate, as well as my "other" responsibilities...

Unexpected dinner and museum strolling with friends ... It was a lovely, spontaneous night out.

Coming home : the washing up is done and my bed is made.

After too long without a home of my own I'm now a month away from having my own place again. Can't describe how good that feels
