Good evening from cloudy Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA. It's currently 52 F. Our low for tonight will be 50 F with thunderstorms. We need the rain.
It's been a good day.
I'm thankful for the seven hours of sleep I got last night. It was daylight when I got up, but it was good. I didn't feel like I was behind the entire day.
I'm thankful for the time I spent with you today. I only got through the notifications once today. I have a lot of notifications now that will need to wait until tomorrow. I enjoyed visiting with you while I could. You're a big part of my day.
I'm thankful for Canasta. We played two full games, partners as there were eight of us today. Two tables. My partner and I won one game. The first game was a slaghter, so it was nice to come back and win the second.
I'm thankful for Prayer tonight. It's the National Day of Prayer. I hope all Christians here took time to give thanks to God for the many blessings He gave each of us. We had a good prayer time in my apartment.
I'm thankful for my new fitness tracker. I've had it for a few days now. I love it. It gives me an accurate reading for how much sleep I got last night. It also lets me know my blood pressure, which is normal. Not like the electronic cuff at the hospital that makes it look like I have high blood pressure. I'm grateful to know I don't have high blood pressure.
I'm thankful I'm tracking the food I eat each day. With it, I'm losing weight.
I'm thankful I have my steps. I'll soon be on the foot cycle to get a workout on it as well while I watch television before going to bed.
Okay, that's my day. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image is from Bible Gateway free to share.

You had a wonderful day! I'm glad to hear that your blood pressure is normal!!
My day started with waking up with severe leg cramps. Not sure where that came from, but my blood pressure med was changed up a bit. I'm thinking that maybe the switch caused the glitch. We will see.
Thankful that I got the 30 day notice in to the antique store today! I can't wait to find a new store and get out of there!

I am thankful to have our errands and work done so I can stay home for the next couple of days.
Our town is having an apple blossom festival Saturday, if it isn't raining. They added this a couple of years ago because the apple festival in Oct. draws so many visitors in. Since we live in town, the roads get shut down, and it makes getting around if you have to be out a pain.

I'm thankful today was rather smoothe going. I got most everything I wanted done including getting the recycling and trash down to the street for pickup. I'm thankful George is doing a bit more. He wants to do more for himself. I don't miss him not asking me for help, but will gladly jump up to do so when he needs it. The little things he does, that are noral make me smile.

@just4him Our neighbor stopped by, and he answered the door. He isn't exactly springing up off the couch, but he's doing it.

Yes, they do. If more people prayed, it would change the world.

That's good to hear that it was a good day. That's good about not having high blood pressure. Sometimes people get "white coat" blood pressure...where it is higher when they see a doctor but not normally high otherwise. I had a watch that told me too. My current one just tells me heart rate and oxygen level.

I heard that from the nurse at the hospital with my friend this week. I'm glad yours is also normal at home. My tracker also shows heart rate and oxygen level.

@MommyOfEli2013 I'm sure it's good. My oxygen is between 97 and 100%. I saw it register 100% this morning.

@just4him Well it is good if that is the case for some, that they only have it then. Well mine is not bad because I am on meds for blood pressure. I'll have to go off them though if I get pregnant. That's good your tracker shows those things. I don't know how accurate the oxygen is being on the wrist and not a finger.

You had a fulfilling and thankful day. 
It is great to hear that you are taking care of your health with your new fitness tracker and monitoring your food intake. I am thankful for this day, for my family, and all the people that love and care for me, for all the blessings, big and small. There are so many things I am thankful for, really.

Look at you being all healthy and all with your fitness tracker! You go Valerie!
I did not know it was National Day of Prayer. Shame on me.

@just4him I’m not the greatest at prayer, but yes I pray several times a day.

@moffittjc I do too. It's what is called praying without ceasing.

I'll be thankful if we win the latest appeal I have filed with the insurance company. They wanted my husband out of the rehab facility today! They don't give you more than a day's notice. Sigh.

@just4him Thanks. They don't care about the fact that you'd have to vacate without notice...they only care about the bottom line.
