1) getting older. I really do treasure this stage of my life.
2) Chincoteague Island. It’s my new favorite vacation spot.
3) a new day. No matter how bad a day was, when you wake up in the morning and there’s a new day, it’s a wonderful feeling.
4) a clean sink. I hand wash everything. I also cook and bake a lot so the dishes pile up. Sometimes too much lol. It’s always nice to get them done and to have a fresh sink.
5) magazines. So much is done online nowadays. It’s really nice to get a monthly magazine and feel it in my hands and turn each page.

- Cooler temps so that I can sit outside on My back patio and enjoy the firefly show.

- My sweet cats. One of them just celebrated his 1 year "adoption birthday" yesterday!

- Knowing that I have come to a place in My life that no matter how rude people can be or how they treat Me does not affect My mood or where I am in My world as well as how I treat others. There has been a lot work that has gone into getting to that place. I am thankful that I arrived there a few years ago!

- Having a good memory and keeping the memories of My Mom at the forefront of My mind. While there are sad moments - I know I would be lost without those memories.

- The taste of the french pressed coffee that I am currently sipping. I love, love, love a good cup of coffee!

Five or more good things
 

Waking up in the morning
WALKING to the bathroom
SEEING where you are going
MAKING IT to the bathroom in time
Having that first hot cuppa'
Taking your FIRST TASTE of the day
Looking out at a sun shine
OPENING the window and feeling the fresh cool air
Getting dressed and going to the park

EVERY day should feel like this, they don't , but, it is within us to see the best we have right here in front of us.

1. My sweet dogs and cats, who bring me endless joy and love, even when they're naughty.
2. Max. After going through a difficult time, through hard work and love and stubbornness, we've built a relationship beyond what I could have imagined.
3. My job. Even on a day that I'm in meetings the entire day (which is hell for this introvert) I'm grateful to have work I like and that I'm good at.
4. My warm clean house when the weather is terrible like it is right now.
5. Good fierce storms. I like to stand in the fierce wind of a big storm. It's exhilarating.

5 good things.
1. My dog Copper. He is such a character.
2. Being able to see my grand babies this weekend
3. coffee
4. My family
5. Friendships

I rescued a kitty from being dumped in the hood that I work in. He’s got a wonderful new home!
I’m finally out for RSV. I really did truly think I was gonna die. I’ve never been so unable to breathe in my life.
I’m cooking Thanksgiving dinner! It’s been a long time. We usually go to my daughters but now she has RSV and is really sick so I’m making my own meal for me and my husband.
I love my job! I was working for the same company for over a decade. It’s been hard to transition to a new position and a new company that is vastly different than what I used to do. However, it is so rewarded financially and spiritually.
My eye surgery was a success. They close the hole in my macula. I can Elsie properly.

1. Learning how much the price of hearing aids has gone down, way down. So low I can now get two for what it used to cost for just one of the same quality!

2. Discovering I can now get behind the ear hearing aids that are almost invisible, so lightweight and comfortable it's almost like not wearing anything at all. No batteries and wow they really hold a charge.

3. This morning while we were out running errands my youngest grandson said – I love you grandma, nine times and each time he said it gave me a great big hug.

4. This afternoon my youngest grandson told me he didn't want to spend Thanksgiving anywhere but with me. Told me how much he was going to miss me on Thursday and made me promise I'd be there with him for Second Turkey Day on Friday. Then seeing him smile, how happy he was when I told him I pinkie swore I would be.

5. Finally starting to see some of the payoff, benefits of switching Monte back over to this better quality cat food.

FireSignFemme, thanks for the heads up. I really need these but I have never been able to swing the price. I have known I was eventually going to have to get some though. I will look into it again.

For Thread Compliance - Five Good Things:

1 - FireSignFemme.

2 - Mary Kay Satin Hands. I don't know if they even still make this stuff, but I found some in the back of a closet, and wow, this stuff is great.

3 - Pastries for breakfast on holidays (like Thanksgiving).

4 - Artsy, craftsy friends to do projects with.

5 - Everybody's pets.

1) homemade Canna butter (to use as an general cooking aid)

2) time off work for the holiday season (Yay for snowy weather)

3) Giving our Democratic officers in the HOR and Senate reverent respect for the spectacular focus on carrying out important missions for ... THE PEOPLE .

4) I have mad respect for the family of the fallen officer and his*The Sicknick* family. You gotta love them for telling McConnell and McCarthy exactly the hypocrisy of the entire GOP. Three cheers for Brian and his family, the Sicknicks.:vigil:

5) Obama. Thanks for all you do. You are simply outstanding, amazing and awesome.
