Happy Sunday Cali Friends, what are you THANKFUL for today?

Today I am thankful for...

Thank you God for another beautiful day outside, and sitting here with my yummy coffee.

A wonderful OH luncheon yesterday surrounded by friends who care, love and support one another.

For my lab work on Friday that came out picture perfect, pleasing my Doc and me!

For being reminded today by the quote above that I MUST journal everyday!  It works.

OK Cali Friends your turn, what are you thankful for today?

Good Morning Barb!

I am thankful for the wonderful freindships that have devoloped on these boards!  It is unbelievable.  It really is!  God has brought us all together for a common goal, to love and support one another.  It is really an amazing feat.   I am thankful to God today for opening my eyes and my heart to those who I did not give a chance to in the past as my eyes and ears were clouded.  I thank him for removing those clouds so I do not miss out on the love and support these others offer.  I also thank him for the gift of forginess that has been offered to me and to others.  Those are a few of the things I am thankful for today.

God bless everyone on this fabuloooooooous  Sunday.

Good Morning Barb!

No fair Rhonda and Becky said what I was going to say! Just cause I got here later and slept in!!! lol....

Today I am thankful for:

Friends, friends, friends, friends, and oh did I say friends?!

OH for bringing me these friendships. I didn't know what I was missing and now I will never go back to where I was.

Waking up today and sleeping in! Wow, thats a rarity for me!

Sitting here at the computer while DH made my protein, and now we start to enjoy the Sunday paper together. Boy, are we an old married couple? lol, 14 years is a long time!

Ok, since I mentioned him. Im greatful for DH, too. Lol! I am starting to re-know him and love and accept him. So this is a big step.

Im thankful for Barb and her lovely quotes everyday, that seem to speak to me.

Have a fantastic day!

wanted to share another quote in addition to barb's awesome one... it is on my daily calendar for today:

"Happiness is inward and not outward: and so it does not depend on what we HAVE, but on what we ARE".
~Henry van Dyke

I am beyond thankful today for God's provisions in my life of family, friends, home, pets, love, job, etc, etc.

I am also thankful IN ADVANCE for a DH who will love me and let me shower him with love, all the days of our lives... wherever you are today, DH, may the Lord bless you and bring us together....
