Daily Gratitude's 2020

[Lessstressedhemum]

A safe, friendly thread where we can pause, think and count our blessings

Everyone is welcome here. Whether you have a faith or not, whether you are grateful for huge things or simple pleasures, whether you post every day or just once; stop by and join us, we would love to see you.

Prayers for your friend, Admiral.

Sitting quietly just breathing

Prayers for your friend too @Redadmiralfanclub

Thankful a safe journey.

A visit from ds1 and ddil
Seeing my dad yesterday. His oncologist has told him to keep being very, very careful, so we don't see him often.
Shelter from which to watch the wind and rain

Church online
A very quiet day
Snuggly cardigans

That DS has food friends.

That my brothers new business seems to be going well and allowing him a better work/life balance.

That ex and I can still get along and are mostly on the same page regarding DS.

That we felt brave enough as a family to go out for a meal.

Fresh air.

Walk with family.

Sunshine
Washing on the line
Kids quietly getting on with their studies

About to our second load of washing out as wind has dropped sufficiently that it won’t blow away.

That nobody was hurt when the tree came down in our road yesterday.

A decent night's sleep
A new day
Ddil seems to be taking some of her treatment and therapy suggestions on board

A lovely family celebration yesterday
An engaging choice for our book club read this month
A restful day today

Sunshine
Exercise
Ddil had another reasonably calm day yesterday

Good friends
My new bible reading app
My new iron- I detest ironing but this makes it passable!

Oh, how I hate ironing orchid. One of the best things about the kids being HE, from my point of view, was that I didn't have to iron school uniform 😁

A lovely walk with the kids yesterday
Loads of line dried washing
Vet says the bunny has made a complete recovery

Visit to the optician
Fresh, clean, line dried sheets
Fruit and veg box delivery day, today

A lovely walk with ds.
Good friends.

A lovely late summer day
Unexpected contact from a long lost family member
The hopeful looking Covid data that we're being given - hopefully it's accurate, and hopefully people won't go wild thinking that they can now forego any caution

Decent, friendly, quiet new neighbours

That my friend passed a presentation she was dreading today.

That I've heard good news about my sick colleague, albeit it a rumour. Hopefully true.

For a lovely day spent with a family member at the weekend.

Green and Blacks chocolate

Scottish raspberries
A roof over our heads

Cool and dry weather.

Family.

A chat with ds3
A new day
Food in the cupboards and clean, running water at the turn of the tap

I believe eveyone has a story to tell. What's yours?

The youngsters happy at their new schools
Decisions made years ago proving to be right for me
A few wonderful friends and a bevvy of friendly acquaintances

(Not sure "bevvy" is the right word, above - bounty/profusion/abundance are what I had in mind!)
