~~Daily Thanksgivings~~

When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.

Happy Halloween Cali Friends, what are you thankful for today?


Today I am thankful for....

1.  Halloween, because I love seeing the kids so proud of themselves, their innocence with life and the smiles on their faces when they come trick or treating.

2.  Going to Tuesday Morning last evening and getting the cat that my sister-in-law saw there and fell in love with for her Christmas present.

3.  For the weekend and a chance to rest my brains!

OK your turn, what are you thankful for today?

Barb,

You did it again.  I am dealing with a situation myself right now that this saying comes in mighty handy.  I can't change the situation so I have to change me.  I am going to focus on that today.  Thank you my freind.  I don't know how you do it, but it is like you read my mind or something.  You are awesome my freind.

I am thankful for....

1.  My freinds that are honest enough to tell me gently that I screwed up and still love me inspite of myself.

2.  My forgetful mind, I can't believe I can't remember anything or can I?  I forgot.

3.  That I am going to play a little today against my better judgement but I do need retail therapy.  RIGHT?

Rhonda,

You've got a friend for life in me! 

Hugs and retail therapy, I'm all over it!

Hugs and love,
Barb

Hi Barb,

Ms V send you her best Halloween Boo! and Trick or Treat! 

Today I am thankful for:

Spending a lovely day with the family out and about!

Finding a few more long sleeve shirts at the thrift store brand new!!

Getting through my first week on a new job uneventfully (so far my director has not reviewed all of our work yet!)

Hope you all have a spooktacular day!

Dolores,

Please give my buddy Ms V a big hug and tell her not to eat too much candy tonight!

Can't wait to see you in Nov.

Hugs and love,
Barb

What a fabulous quote.  I find myself in this situation just about daily with work. 

Today I am thankful for:

1.  The full night sleep I had last night because I woke up completely refreshed and rested and my house is now clean!!!!

2.  That my scale is moving quite well this week.

3.  That I can pick up my new pants from the cleaners (hemmed) and I will no longer look like a frumpy old lady in clothes 2 sizes too big.  (he he)

4.  For my friends on OH and my loving family.

5.  NO WORK TODAY

Next..........

Good Morning Miss Barb,

Today I am thankful for:

Friends, who love me no matter what

God, who has supplied us with everything we need in our lives, He is good and He is great.

An eye opening picture, that I am NOT FAT any longer, I am going tomorrow on the way home and get some clothes that fit me smaller so everyone and I can see that I lost weight.  NO more 2x's for me, probably into the XL's I really wear!!!

Dougie, who still cares for me even on his vacation.  I can't wait for his retirement date! DEC 18th here we come.

Have a wonderful weekend Barb, I still prayer for your FIL, and love to you and Ron.  Diane

Diane,

Hello my friend, of course you are not fat anymore, heck, I could have told you that in Sept!  LOL

Hugs to both you and Doug from us!

Love you both,
Barb

Today I am thankful for:

1. Getting to go out dancing last night

2. Getting under 300 pounds

3. Halloween! It's my favorite holiday :)

4. My boyfriend, who is the best support system I could have ever asked for
