Gratitude Day Nine (41-45)

41. Texting - I find texting to be a much easier form of communication than phone calls, even though less can be said... maybe Because less can be said.. lol

42. Coconut oil - loving it for my hair and skin!

43. That wonderful silence after turning off a fan, or the like, that has been humming in the background for a while.  Even though the sound wasn't bad, it's like a physical relief to have it gone.

44. Our new singles pastor

45. Feeling nicely put together last night

That's all for today. The list is the most important thing anyway. :)  I'll leave you with an old picture of me and my favorite horse of recent times.  The date is wrong.  It was '04, not 98 as I think the date stamp says.

Gratitude Day Eight (36-40)

36. Morning coffee

37. Flowers given for my garden

38. People who believe me in this illness and don't try to "fix" me

39. Free downloads from Alistair Begg and Truth For Life

40. Christmas pictures which I still have taped up on my cupboard doors

Busy day today, picking up prescriptions, going to singles fellowship, getting groceries after that.  The doctor suggested an anti-inflammatory diet, so it'll be interesting shopping.  I'm not even sure what that  means, but I'm trying to learn and have some idea where to start.  I think, actually, that I have already started.  I've been trying to cut out processed foods for quite some time.  I know I feel much better when I eat a lot of fruits and vegetables.  I'm a little concerned about cost, but I think it'll work out.  I eat thanks to state assistance, because of my disability, so funds are limited, but not so much that I'm always straining to get anything good.
