Grateful Post..

Happy Hump Day.. Today I am grateful.. That I am healthier that I have ever been in my life.. For love of friends.. That others see me as an inspiration.. For very important people in my life..  For everyday I wake up..  For descions I have made in the past that made me the person I am today..

I am grateful for being sober in spite of my insanity. friends and family. a good job. getting up and riding my bike before work. sugar free Klondike Slim-A-Bear treats for a treat. my granddaughter's laugh that I heard this evening. my sisters planning a 50th birthday party for me next week. my kids calling me to let me know they love me. Hugs, Trish

Hi Trish.. .. is this the same sister that you were angry with not too long ago.. ??  And what day is your birthday.. ??  loved reading the granddaughter's laughter.. I called my mom today.. we talked and it was actually nice.  When she hung up from me.. lol.. a co-worker said.. you talked to her like she was your friend.  Not like you were so angry..  I said.. yeahh.. isn't that nice!!

Hi Rhonda, Yes, we have a tradition in our family.  The siblings plan a party for the 40th and 50th birthdays.  I am the third child of four.  Two years ago, we had a 40th birthday party for my brother who passed last year, sis turned 50 five years ago, and my older brother six years ago.  Now it is my turn, and my sister and sister-in-law, who I consider a sister, are planning a party for next weekend.  My actual birthday is November 1st.   Tonight, my daughter called me to have me listen to my granddaughter laugh.  My daughter was saying silly things to her, and Isabel was laughing loud, and giggling up a storm.  I was almost in tears it was too cute.   Hugs, Trish
