Daily Gratitudes 2014

[Annunziata]

Old thread here

Welcome to our Gratitudes for 2014! The lovely crescentmoon started last years, and we are running out of space. So, here is our 2014 thread-for little things that go well for us each day.

Any MNer can join in! From any faith, no faith, every day, once in a while, everyone is welcome!

I am grateful for
a New Year and new starts
all my grown up DC having a good time at parties and returning home safely
a warm bath and a glass of wine

You should be so proud of them, what lovely boys!

Grateful for
a little bit more light in the evening

I am very proud of them annunziata. One of the great things about BB is that it can give the boys a glimpse of their place in the world and of how blessed they really are.

gratitudes today
that I live in a country which is stable and governed by the rule of law. All those poor people in the Ukraine

Morning all

I did yesterday's gratitudes in my head while I was tucked up in bed last night!

They were (I think)
For my safe journey down to London and back home
That there were no major incidents in London yesterday
For the spring-like sunshine
For longer days (echoing Annunziata)

gratitudes

a very successful Messy Church yesterday - we had almost 20 kids, so with their parents, we had 40 people. SO enjoyable and very well worth doing.
some lovely sunshine
food and clean water
children's telly, am really suffering today

Did you enjoy London, wing? I have only ever been to the airports and even they scare me, so big and crowded!

I am getting back into children's telly, stressed, my favourite is definitely Peppa

gratitudes
family
religion
laughter

I'm from London Annunziata so it doesn't faze me

Gratitudes

• for the opportunity to listen to those with other religious viewpoints, both within my own religion as well as from others
• for the comfort those who are grieving can get from their faith

Just discovered this thread.
I do need to remember to be grateful more often.
Gratitudes
health
family
employment
a lovely safe home

Hope it is okay to join

Hi Shelly! :)

DD woke early this morning and I got up with her and DS who crept downstairs soon after. It made me very thankful for DH who gives me a lie-in every other morning in the week! (He's a morning person, me not so much.)

Welcome Shelly!

A lie in every other morning, you've got a good one there Wings!

Hi Pat :)

wishing where have you been? Hope it was for pleasure and not business.

Gratitudes:
That I didn't hear DD until 6:20am this morning as opposed to 5:40 which it's been the past few mornings!
That DS ran into school this morning so happy.
For the ability to buy new sofas for the first time in years (last ones were second hand) which will give us more space for our church house group.
For spring! (Although it's most odd that there hasn't been any snow this winter for sledging.)

Evening Wing et al,
I was in the West of Ireland short haul but flew at sunset and was simply spectacular over the river Shannon. Given all the storms and flooding here and there was grateful was able to fly on the days. Not there for work thankfully :)

Gratitudes:

Holidays - even short versions that are weekends which I am grateful to have as some work 7 days a week.

My neighbour who continues to live with such gratitude and patience despite her grave illness

The beautiful sunshine

The human ability to forget - we can complain about forgetting but it can serve a very positive purpose too I think

Morning all.

Gratitudes
That DD slept till 6:40 today! (She's got hand foot and mouth so I think the calpol assisted with the lie-in.)
For birdsong
For great music of every type

Oh bless her Wing, I hope she's on the mend soon.

Did you have a good time in Ireland then wishing?

Well, we had 4 seasons in one day today in Glasgow, so I shall be glad for the variety and entertainment!
