20 February - What I'm Thankful for Today

Today was a good day. I probably could have gone swimming this morning, but with temps going down during the night, I didn't want to deal with icy roads this morning. So, it will be a week before I'm back at the pool. Why? Wait for it. I'm thankful for the sleep I got last night. I got 7.5 hours of sleep. I seem to be getting more sleep than usual lately. I'm thankful for the weather report this morning. We're getting snow. I should start seeing flakes soon. We're supposed to get 1-3 inches tonight and then Tuesday through Thursday we're getting over a foot of snow. Yes, you read that right. There are two models. One has 13 inches predicted, the other has 16 inches. You know which one I want. The advisories are already posted. @TheHorse you will see some really good snow pictures. I'm thankful for the exercise group this morning. I rode the bike for 30 minutes while the rest worked out to the tape. I had over half my steps this morning with the bike. I'm thankful I went shopping this morning. Not only did I get the rest of my steps, but I also figured out what to do for the potluck tonight. I bought extra fruit to make up a fruit tray. They didn't have any already made up that I was interested in. So, I will have plenty of fruit for a little while. I'm thankful I remembered to get gas on my way home. I was also thankful to get it for $3.02/gallon with my reward card. I'm thankful I have all the notifications finished. It was great spending time with you in your world. Okay, that's my day. I didn't have time to work on a book, but I still got a lot done. With all the walking I did at the store, I have over 9K steps and the day isn't over. There's still the potluck in an hour. That will be close to another thousand steps. I could easily get 10K today. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me. Here's an old snow picture taken from my last apartment a couple of years ago.

Those all sound like good things to be thankful for, for sure. $3.02 for gas? That's really good. Here it is about $3.63 for the cheapest places

@MommyOfEli2013 Yes, it is. I saw the same station selling at $3.03 today.

It's good to have a rewards card for gas. It saved me a few cents per gallon.

@just4him That's good to hear that it does. We do have one where we get 2 cents off. But $3.61 is still high lol

While I am not a morning person, I am thankful that we got Chilly's nails done. I am thankful the girls were willing to try, and despite him giving the place a yellow shower, it got done. He got to come home and wait for us while we went out to do things.

I am thankful that the city garbage disposal truck came today to pick up the trash despite it being President's Day and the day before Fat Tuesday where the city services will be closed for a day to party.

@just4him If not the garbage would have been picked up on Wednesday. By then the garbage would have been a huge hill on the sidewalk area.

You have been very active lately so that is probably why you have been sleeping more. I think a fruit tray sounds awsome for the potluck since the spaghetti dish didn't seem to work out.

It worked perfectly. Everyone likes fruit. So, I didn't have a lot left, except the blueberries. I've been finishing off the fruit this morning from their individual partitions in the tray. I wasn't planning on spaghetti for the potluck. Though, I found a nice spaghetti squash yesterday when I was shopping.

It might snow here on Wednesday. I hate the snow so if it snows we are staying home.

@just4him It's always good to keep the tank full, especially at that price. Never know when you'll need it. Thanks!

Yes, it was. I was happy to see it. I still had a quarter of a tank, but with the storm happening, I didn't want to wait. I'm glad you're home after a busy weekend.

The only things I was thankful for yesterday was I got to work on my diamond painting and I got some cake from my great-aunt.

It would take quite a chunk out of your day to do so many steps.
