Day 30: Good Citizens

Today I am grateful for the people who are in the world that are good citizens.  We saw a car break down today, right in the middle of traffic.  Two separate cars full of good citizens pulled over, got out, and helped push a total strangers car out of the way.  The coolest part, they just jumped back into their car like nothing happened, took off and right back into their day.  I am so pleased to know that this kind of respect and chilvary is still alive and well.

Day 29: Massage and Chiropractors

I've had a little trouble with my lower back lately,  nothing big just a sign of my age and profession, and have started going back to a chiroprator.  I also found a gift certificate that was given to me by my wonderful in laws, and went and had a massage today.  Wow!  It is amazing to be pampered.  I think one of the coolest things is that we didn't speak for the entire time.  Udder silence.   I am grateful for the opportunities with these modalities to really do some healing and hopefully prevent any future problems.

Day 28: Myself

Today I am grateful for myself.  I am finally at a age that I feel very comfortable being me and appreciate things about myself.  Of course I have a laundry list of traits I would like to change or work on but overall I am grateful for the person I am.

Day 26: House Guests

I don't often have house guests and I am grateful for that.   It is very hard having people in your space for any extended length of time.  It is really fun for me though to have my house feel so full.  It is so fun to have one of my daughters favorite playmates just down the hall. It was glorious this morning to get out of bed, have my children up and fed, the coffee made and my breakfast there waiting for me.  I couldn't ask for better, more considerate people to be in my space with me.

Day 25: Extended Family

Today I am grateful for my extended family! When we all get together in a big group and outsider would never be able to tell who is blood and who is related by marriage.  I have the greatest of people that all have so much to offer and so much love to give.  My mother and father in law are two of the most amazing kind harted, genuine people I have ever had the honor of knowing.  My brother in laws are the brothers that I could have never dreamed better.  I love being part of this amazing journey with these people.

Day 27: Nice Patients

Today I am grateful for kind patients!  I have several of the nicest,  involved patients tonight and when I have those it somehow makes everything we do so worthwhile.  It breaks up the nights that are extremely rough and challenging. It makes me have faith in humanity.

Day 24: Family

I have the best family!   My sister and brother in law were expected in today to celebrate Thanksgiving here in Colorado and I was so excited all day.  I be bopped around,  talked to everyone at the grocery store, played with my kids,  teased people I didn't know.  I am so grateful for my family who are kind and thoughtful,  just like me in so many ways, and not dysfunctional in a negative way.  In my line if work I see so many horrible families that are intentionally hurtful and cruel and I am just so grateful that I am blessed to be with these amazing people for the holidays.
