I understand there's a thankful challenge going on. That's awesome as there is so much to be thankful for every day. I started my thankful posts a year ago on November first. Many of you said you wanted them to continue past November. Here I am a year later still posting them. Today, I'm thankful for the nursing staff at the hospital. My nurse today was awesome. Great personality. I'm thankful I'm now in rehab. It's the same place I was with the last knee replacement. I'm thankful the therapist saw me right after I got here and was impressed with how well I'm doing. I'm thankful I got my notifications done twice today and could visit with you and see how your day is going. That's my day in a nutshell. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me. Chalk pictures on the sidewalk at the Botanical Gardens.

That's all very wonderful to hear. And this year has gone by pretty fast even with all the craziness! I am glad you continued the thankful posts though. I would join the challenge if I knew I would post daily. Very nice photo! And I am thankful that my Grandpa has his infusions scheduled to start on Monday.

@just4him 16 lives lost. A village was covered by mud. Trees were uprooted. Houses were flooded with water.

@crazyhorseladycx I'm sorry the mockingbirds were uncooperative. I guess they didn't want to get their pictures taken. Okay if they repaired the pump when they were out, why is there so much trouble with it now? Or am I missing something? You're mooning me. Very nice picture.

Thank you. I'm glad to be here. I'm glad you saw a mockingbird and the water is still flowing through the pipes. I hope it keeps up. You don't need to lose water during the winter months. I'm glad there was an interesting moon last night. It sounds like a very pretty night.

I'm thankful that Kitty slept in my bed last night. I'm thankful that I sold some coasters, and may work on more later today.

@just4him The idea came when I realized that taking surveys for a period of time does pay off in the long run.

Overall it's good. I'm dealing with a wrecked back due to the mattress in rehab, but it'll get worked out when I see the chiropractor next week.

I think the challenge is a good one. And, I've been responding every day to yours. I think it's a good thing, actually. A reminder to us all to stay positive even when it feels hard to do so. So here I go. I'm thankful that, despite looking like it might rain, the weather held out. I'm thankful, for a new day and feeling better. (It started out crappy, but that's okay, too.) I'm thankful our cats seem happy and healthy.

Yes, I do. He was impressed with what I could do with this knee already versus what I couldn't do with the other when I got here last time. It's going well. I had a great therapy session. Thank you. I enjoy doing them.
