Things I’m Grateful For on Sunday 17 February

Things I’m grateful for or that I’ve appreciated today:

  1. My glasses.
  2. I’m off work today. :banana:
  3. Getting up early, instead of lying in bed.
  4. I might go to the river today. It’s nice and dry, and I have plenty of fuel in the car.
  5. Breakfast cereals. It’s odd, but I never used to be able to eat first thing in the morning. Now, I eat my breakfast at about 6:30, and I’m hungry again by 10:30.
  6. I really enjoyed doing those logic puzzles yesterday, so I’m going to do some more today.
  7. That I’ve been keeping this list of things I am grateful for for as long as I have. When I started, I sometimes wondered if I’d ever finish.
  8. I’m really glad that some of the toxic people I used to know are no longer a part of my life. I’d sooner be alone than deal with negative people.
  9. The time I spent playing about with PHP.
  10. Watching the finale of Angels in America.
  11. A tasty organic apple.
  12. A nice hot shower.
  13. I heard from Rani. :chili:
  14. Doing some fregair.
  15. I’ve successfully edited some of the Wordpress files, to rearrange the Dashboard. All I have now are the most recent posts, the last 5 comments, and the last 5 inward links. None of the extra junk that’s usually there. I am so glad I didn’t mess things up. :lol:
  16. Playing with Wenna this morning.
  17. I remembered to wash my uniform. :carrot:
  18. Hot fruit tea.
  19. Taking some photographs.
  20. Doing some writing.
  21. A colourful sunset.
  22. Realising that perhaps the hunger for direction is the distraction. :broccoli:
  23. Adding Black Gold to my Lovefilm queue. It’s a documentary about coffee farmers, and how they’re paid the same wage per week as we pay for a cup of coffee. I’m not a coffee snob by any stretch of the imagination, but I am glad that I only buy Fairtrade coffee these days.
  24. I’ve been paid back by another $6 on Kiva.org. I’m up to $239 now.
  25. A lovely hot bath.
  26. Interesting fregair.
  27. David Jordan - Sun Goes Down. Ignore the video, as it’s rather naff, but the song itself is quite good.
  28. Fiddling with my Lovefilm lists to try to get some DVD’s faster than other’s.
  29. Cold water.
  30. I’ve decided to mention here whether I’ve achieved my New Years Resolutions every day. If I post here, maybe I’ll try to achieve them every day I achieve them, it’s something to be grateful for.
  31. I’ve changed the delivery date of one of my credit card statements to be closer to the day I get paid. Not that I really need to, as I check my balance every few days and pay it off. It feels really good to be in control of my finances like this.
  32. Finding out about the Furminator. It’s a pet grooming tool that apparently really helps to cut down on the amount of moulting your dog/cat does. You use it just like a normal brush, and it fetches all the dead hair out. I’m a bit sceptical of the claims of 90% reduction in shed hair, but the video’s on the site do seem to be impressive.

Things I’ve laughed at today:

  1. Thinking about Mandy, and opening You Can’t Afford The Luxury Of A Negative Thought to the page about avoiding negative people and situations. Very apt advice. :lol:
  2. Watching a funny comedy show. :lol:

Things I want to manifest:

  1. A good day off. MANIFESTED.

Things I’ve done for others:

  1. Made mom a Lemsip.

    Actually, they’re vile. They’re incredibly bitter, so you need to add half a bag of sugar to make them palatable. So not only do you have the ‘flu, you have a massive sugar rush too. It’s great fun. :lol:
