Alright!  I got my 2 walks in this week, one with my youngest daughter, Katey!  My major taskaccomplishment: completing ny insurance application. (At least I HOPE it's finished!!). And my...

Okay, so week 1 didn't go quite as planned. My goal to walk twice a week in the fresh air got rained out. I was able to get my walk in on Sunday. Guess you can't have it all. We'll see how the...

Can somebody PLEASE tell me why it is so impossible to get a billing cycle changed?  I am TRYING to get all of my household bills to come due at about the same time so I can pay them all in one...

I did it!  4 weeks of finding something to be grateful for every day. Even on my bad days, there was at least one thing I truly appreciated.  I will be continuing this exercise privately in a paper...

Dear heavens, you never know what is gonna push you over the edge, do you?  I have been feeling a bit "off" this week.  And a 14 yr old local girl that I have never met, but that my granddaughter...

3/12/14: hope.  I am grateful that I can still hope.  Hope for the future, filled with love.  Whether it be romantic love, parental love, grandma love, love of friends, love of space, love of...

I have managed 21 days so far of things to be grateful for. I decided to make this a 4 week goal here, then I will continue in a handwritten gratitude journal.  I am old-fashioned in some ways.  I...

I find this easier to do a week at a time... Less cumbersome in the editing. 3/5/14: today I was grateful that my boss was in a good mood and admitted that I am good at something.  The last couple...

What I am finding I miss most, 10-1/2 months after Marks's death, is intimacy.  I don't mean sex ( though I miss that, too).  I mean the everyday intimacies we shared: holding hands, talking about...

2/26/14: today I am grateful for the rain. We have really been needing it here and it smells so fresh and clean!2/27/14:  the view from my bedroom window - by day I see trees, birds, and airplanes....

Okay, I have gotten through 1 week. Not always easy, left me tell Ya! But I keep on looking for 1 thing each day that I am truly appreciative of. 

Got up this morning after an unusually good nights sleep. Betsey, bless her heart, went out and bought fresh donuts for breakfast. That, paired with a wonderful cup of coffee, started the day off...

2/19/14: Today I am grateful for the music of the Beatles. They can make me cry, or smile or sing out loud.  :)2/20/14: the sound of little children reminds me that there is much to look forward to...
