A True and Tried way to feel better - even in a pandamic!

I got up this morning and a gap in the clouds let the sunshine through the rain - and we had a rainbow!

Forgot to ask what is the new series please Anna7

Kind AC, no money worries ?and a cat to soften lockdown.

Happy birthday Lucca. What a lovely surprise to have presents left in your porch.

Your little dog sounds delightful company Anna7. Something indeed to be thankful for.

I’m grateful for still being here, me and mine being quite healthy, the vaccine roll out, spring being 60 days away.
Today I’m grateful for the tasty curry Orlin made and grateful that’s there’s enough for tomorrow and that I managed to get a stain out of my favourite T-shirt.

Very happy birthday Lucca ???

Happy Birthday Lucca ????
I'm grateful for my lovely little family, we are all so close, which is lovely for me, as I am not very close to my siblings. I'm so grateful being able to sit in a warm and cozy house whilst it is pouring down with rain outside. And after a childhood where there was absolutely no money, I am eternally grateful that we now have no money worries and are fortunate to have a relatively comfortable life.

Happy Birthday Lucca! I now find I am grateful for the things people have added to this thread ! Thank you! And a granddaughter just contacted me to chat about her life - so lovely that she wanted to tell me about it - and am grateful for that too.

Good idea Applegran? there is always something to be thankful for.I won’t keep a diary but will think of good things at some point in the day.We must never allow negativity to overcome us.
Happy Birthday Lucca??? worth being any age when you have nice presents and cards( makes up for it anyway.)
Enjoy your day.

What a lovely thread Applegran It is the small things that make me grateful. Mr J making me a cup of tea, receiving phone calls/emails from family and friends, seeing a rainbow, seeing spring flowers starting to come out. Although I don't write things down, I do try to think at the end of the day what I am grateful for.

@Lucca and FannyC. My dog is a golden cocker spaniel. He's 18 weeks now and it's gone really well. I have plenty of time to train him and walk him and its just so nice to have a dog around again.

I’m grateful that I cleaned the oven yesterday and don’t have to do it today.
? Lucca

Happy Birthday Lucca a mere stripling!
I have much to be grateful for, good thread Applegran

Happy Birthday to You Lucca ? ? ? ? ?

Three things to be grateful for today :

A family to care about who care about me

Friends who stay close with telephone calls and e mails during these times when we can’t see each other

A warm, safe home and food in the cupboards/fridge/freezer

Nice thread Applegran.

I love the parrots nanna8 and I wish I could see them through my window.

Oh Lucca what a lovely surprise. Happy birthday, and may the next one be when we are all in a better place.

I’m enormously grateful to the wonderful medics who treated me in hospital and since I’ve got home, as I’ve had a nasty bout of Covid. I’m grateful to be alive to be honest, and I’m looking forward to getting back to normal and doing normal things again.

Yes Lucca. Victoria. They are king parrots who visit from time to time.

Hard to pick just 3 things to be grateful for - my family who keep in touch, the walk in the rain today (no such thing as bad weather - just wrong clothing!) and the daffodils bought yesterday that are already flowering and making me smile and think of spring.

Are you in Oz ?

If I feel peed off I ring someone and have a good yack, eat chocolate and play a stupid game called Cubis on the computer. Also go outside and feed the lovely birds we get here

Happy birthday Lucca, have a ‘Lucckkyy’ year

Happy Birthday Lucca

Blue sky and sunshine here, elderly dog given a bit of a reprieve from the vet. He is not in pain from his tumours and can stay with us a bit longer.

Lucca

What is it Anna7 ?!

I'm more interested in the dog!

What is it Anna7 ?!

Happy birthday Lucca

This thread has come at the right time, I was feeling a bit down today . I am grateful for my new little dog, who has proved to be a delight. I am grateful that we live at the top of a hill so that I dont have to worry about being flooded with all the rain we are having atm. I have found a new series on Netflix to watch so that it always a positive.
