Good evening. Yes, I'm awake. I shouldn't be, but it was a very long day. I have a few things to be thankful for.
I'm thankful for getting up when I did this morning. I got seven hours of sleep.
I'm thankful for the Bible study this morning. It was a very good discussion.
I'm thankful for the lunch with the ladies today. It was almost the only thing I had to eat today. We went to Red Robin. I don't know if they have those in other parts of the country. It's a gourmet restaurant. It's a little pricey, but the food is wonderful.
I'm thankful day two is done with Twinky. I love Twinky. I like her owner. I don't like the way she keeps house. Tomorrow, I give her the sad news that I won't be watching Twinky again.
I'm thankful that when I fell in her apartment this morning, I didn't get hurt more than I did. I tripped over the lip to the patio coming into the apartment after taking Twinky outside. I'm fine. I hurt a bit and I'll be taking some Ibuprofen in a few minutes. It could have been a lot worse. I'm thankful one of the Bible study women lives close by and I could call her for help off the floor. I landed hard on my knees. They're sore, but they're fine. I didn't damage them. So, even though I fell, I'm fine and thankful I am.
I'm thankful for Writer's Guild tonight. We had a small group tonight. I read Guns of War and got feedback on the section I read the last time and corrected. There's more to correct. I love the feedback. It makes me a better writer.
Okay, that's what I'm thankful for. We're getting fall temperatures by the end of the week. I'm so looking forward to the cooler weather. What are you thankful for today?
Thanks for reading. My phone is now charged enough that I can go to bed.

I am thankful that the Hungry Root meals came in today and the fan fiction writers site called Archive Of Our Own where a few editors of fan fiction sites have invited me to write for them since my fan fictions are from my childhood of super hero shows which were family friendly.

@just4him It is fun for me to add original characters to assist the main event heroes.

@Deepizzaguy I'm glad you're having fun with it. That's what writing should be - fun.

I'm thankful you were not hurt too!!
Also, for getting more things in the antique booth and to get started on Fall decorations there. An hour flew by quickly there, but I did all I could do at the time.
Thankful the coyotes did not come into my yard and take out the chickens today while we were both gone.

@just4him The coyotes have been a problem for the last couple of months. I always dread leaving the house since they have come up in the yard during the daytime and even when we were outside. With the drought, I imagine they are looking for food and water.
