Jan 31 Retail therapy

It's nice that I can afford retail therapy once in a while.

Jan 30. Hiking

Had time for a morning hike and the sun was out.  There are rollers everywhere on the ice. These are like donuts formed by wind and snow.  

Jan 29.

Homemade bread AND flowers at work today, thanks to Ken.  

Jam 28 It's -2 outside

I'm thankful for shelter and I hope there are no homeless folks left in the cold. And I'm glad I'm not that guy who walked away from his broken car and froze to death. 

Jan 27

I'm thankful I'm over that stupid bug I had and my back feels fine right now. 

Jan 26

Walking the dog in the snow, Doug let me walk on the part someone had already walked on so it would be a little easier for me.  

Jan 25.

Great dinner with friends at the new Bricco in Kent. 

Jan 24. Grand kids

Taught Anna and Andrew how to play Euchre with Doug. A good time!

Jan 23. Flowers

There were flowers on my desk at work today, thanks to Ken. 

Jan 22. Warmth

Doug bought me a space heater I can use at work, where the heat never seems to work.  I was toasty today. 

Jan 21.

Thank God I have a reliable car. It's too cold to be stuck outside with a broken car. 

Jan 20

It's great to not be sick!  Walked the dog this morning before work and Doug made dinner for me.  

Jan 19

I really enjoyed sleeping in. Then we walked the dog and the sun came out! Karma enjoyed the walk even though her left back foot is injured. 

Jan 18

Today I am grateful for my friends.  

Jan 17. Trite but true. TGIF

Jan 16

I am so grateful that I don't have chronic, unrelenting pain. The pain in my back is finally easing up.  It would be hard to maintain a positive attitude if it never did.   

Jan 15.

It's great to have a buddy to share the day with on the way home from work.

Jan 14. Great dinner!

Doug made a wonderful pot roast with red  cabbage on the side.  Sadly, I gobbled it all up before I thought to take a picture. There are leftovers for lunch, too. Yum.  

Jan 13. A cozy bed

Complete with cozy husband. 

Jan 12. Starting to feel better.

I'm thankful for my friends who are kind enough to call and smart enough to avoid Vera's Villa de Virus. 

Jan 11

Grateful to get out of the house for a while.  Still sick. 

Jan 10. Doug's birthday

I'm so thankful to have such a wonderful husband. We are still feeling crappy, though, so no celebrations today.  

Jan 9. Chicken Soup.

Jan 8. Thankful I have sick days from work.

And Doug, who is also sick, to keep me company. 

Jan 7. Kerry cuddling when I don't feel well

Jan 6. Doing a happy dance because I don't have to work tomorrow!

The bad news is that it's too cold outside to do anything.

Jan 5 - A great day at the Goodwill!

Jan 4 2014 - Child Guidance Christmas party

Jan 3. - Gaiters!

Jam 2 - Home safe

I got out of work a little early so I'd have an easier drive home in the snow storm. 

Jan 1, 2014 - A new year!

I've decided to start posting daily something I'm grateful for, generally including a pic.
