February 3 - What I'm Thankful for Today

Not the day I expected, but still good. I'm thankful for the work I accomplished on two manuscripts. New Horizons: Predators and Blue Fire and Vendetta. I read the first last night at Writer's Guild and needed to make corrections. Feedback is great. Vendetta is coming along well. I'll be finished reading what I've written and correcting/editing so everything works together in harmony, soon. I'm thankful I have the groceries taken care of for the next few days. I didn't buy much, but it's enough to get through the cold snap we're getting starting Friday. I'm thankful I got my phone ordered this morning. I'll have the new one in a week. I messaged them that I want the same phone number. We'll see if that happens. I didn't make it to the Y this morning as planned. With the storm coming in, it's playing havoc with my lower back. It used to be the knees when the weather got bad. This time, it's my lower back. It was fine until the last time I got up last night. Then I knew I wasn't going anywhere and with the cold snap we're getting, I won't be going anywhere until the temps are back to normal. They've also updated the snowfall totals for tomorrow as you can see on the above map. Okay, that's my day. Time to get off the computer. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.

Backs and cold or rainy weather really gets those joints a aching. I get that with my knees as I'm pretty sure arthritis has a lot to do with it. Glad your book is doing well. Just finished shoveling snow from my driveway from our recent storm. I can't say I'm thankful for that, lol.

Yes, bad weather can really make those joints hurt. Thank you. I'm glad it's coming along well too. You can be thankful you had the strength to shovel it.

Thank you. I hope so too. If it's like other times involving my knees, it should be good as soon as the weather arrives.

I had a rough night, I did not feel well, may be the cold when I worked outside for a while. I am well today, but tired and sleepy.

@LadyDuck I'm glad it's not cold. We have the first of the cold days and this will be the warmest one for the next week plus.

@just4him I mostly curse Florida due to our brutally hot and humid summers, but this is the time of year where I'm actually thankful to be living in Florida.

It's interesting how our bodies react to changes in barometric pressure.

Yes, it is. I'll be glad when the storm arrives as that's when the pain ceases.

Take care of that back. You are doing well to get what you need despite weather and pain. Today I am thankful to learn a few things I didn't know before.

It's actually doing better right now. A bit sore from doing laundry, but the pain I had for the last few days is gone. The snow has arrived.

I'm extremely thankful that we didn't lose power these past few days with all the snow that fell. I'm also thankful I didn't have to shovel any of it

That's awesome on both counts. It would have been bad to lose power.

@DianneN I'm not either. I have a hundred to clear. I wasn't here this morning as I got my laundry done, so I'm catching up now.
