What are you grateful for today?

[Jessica]

It's easy to complain about the cool, wet weather, so instead I'm grateful that the garden is low maintenance this way, and the rain barrels are full for when it isn't

My life - my faith - my husband. But just life, in general really. After seeing that Miami condo collapse and I live about four hours from there, it really struck me. Buildings don’t just collapse so I’ve felt this inescapable sadness and shock for the past two weeks, as the death toll goes up. Life is fragile so be grateful. <3

I am grateful for another day of being alive. I am grateful to having a great day yesterday with my wife and daughters, exploring old foot bridges, watching street shows at balboa park and riding the carousel together. Also grateful to have pain pills so I can manage my pain so I can still put some miles in daily on my walks.

[Jessica]

As most days, grateful for my close proximity to the ocean

For the every now and then customer who specifically compliments my choice of music for the shop (radio 3, mostly classical)

Jessica happy sunny Friday greetings I agree cheers to a good game and at this point yup I see your stalemate strategy lol?

[Jessica]

You just need to concentrate on getting that pawn of yours to the other side, turn it into a Queen, and then I am toast ;-)

[niftypebble21]

Thanks very much Jessica that's very cool strategic advice! : )

[Jessica]

That my mother is so good at altering dresses and is happy to do it at my request when she visits :-)

Grateful for this Strawberries Wild Smoothie. I don't drink these often but sometimes they hit the spot.

[Meliai]

I am grateful for opportunities for self realization and transformation

and forever grateful for rainy days, especially 70 degree rainy days in late July

[Meliai]

and I am grateful for plants. Plants > humans
(no offense, humans)

[neonspectraltoast]

I'm grateful for you, Jessica. And I'm grateful for water.

(My mouth is dry - just woke up - and I'm drinking strawberry flavored sparkling water beverage.)

[Jessica]

Same for you, Andy :-)
and also for water, in all its forms. In a glass, the sea, a river, rain...

[SusieDerkins]

Grateful that even after treatment yesterday, I was able to do my normal walk this morning. Staying positive that I can keep it up

[Jessica]

I'm keeping you in my thoughts, Don. Glad you were able to get out walking, I know you'd find it worse if you couldn't.

[SusieDerkins]

Thank you Jessica, much appreciated. Walking is my favorite thing to do in life and has been for a long time. If I couldn’t do that, I definitely would have a hard time reaching some kind of resemblance of happy.

[SusieDerkins]

I'm grateful for you, Jessica. And I'm grateful for water.

I had strawberries ? and cream this morning but it is a protein drink.

[neonspectraltoast]
