29 July - What I'm Thankful for Today

Good afternoon from hot and humid Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA. It's 79 F and feels much warmer. It's been a good day. I did everything this morning before I turned on the TV and started watching the Olympics. No gold for the US today, unless I missed those games. We did get silver and bronze though. What I liked most was that countries who don't usually medal in the events I watched, scored gold for their countries. In the pool competition the difference between gold, silver, and bronze was hundredths of seconds. It was exciting. Okay, that's great for the athletes, but it's not me. So what am I thankful for today? I'm thankful I was available for my friend who needed me to watch Sammy for her while she ran to the store and pharmacy. He was really good. I'm thankful I got my walking done early before the heat settled in. I'm thankful I worked on several books today. And I'm thankful I spent time with you today. It's always fun to see what's going on in your world. Okay, that's my day. I need to find something to eat and workout on the foot cycle. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.

I'm thankful that my wire3 install went successfully. It took about two hours, hardly knew they were here. I'm thankful that George didn't put up much of a fight. I got his second tube feed in. He has spent the entire day on the couch. I'm okay with that. didn't hit the 90's today, but still hot enough. I'm thankful I've made my office somewhat usuable. that's been real handy with this god awful heat.

I'm glad the wire3 installation went smoothly. I'm glad George didn't fight you. I'm glad it didn't get into the 90s.

Those seconds sure mess with competitions don't they? Last I saw the USA was leading in medals so that's good. How are you feeling? Are you all well now?

I’m thankful for a good cupping session with my acupuncturist today, and then having lunch with my dad and his wife. I look forward to catching more of the Olympics this week. Although my nerves get wrecked when I start watching these competitions.

@just4him He was upset because he rutted up the yard a bit. He will set the bushhog up on one side and then the other side will dig in and vice versa. No happy medium!

I must say that I have never followed the summer nor the winter Olympic games. I feel like they are often too political, so I am better off not watching them. I only worked a few hours today, which I am thankful for. This afternoon my hubs and I went for a nice drive to an orchard and picked up some fresh peaches.

I don't find anything political about the games. Just the opposite. Canada won a gold medal in the pool yesterday.

I am deeply thankful for the gift of life, my health, and the strength to face each day. I appreciate having a roof over my head, clothes on my back, and shoes on my feet. Most of all, I am grateful for the peace of mind that surrounds me.
