Good evening from Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA where the temperature is in the plus category 5 F. It's been a while since we saw pluses in Wisconsin. I know I wasn't here at all today again. However, it was a very good day. I'm thankful I got the laundry done early this morning. I was up at 2 this morning. I changed my sheets, I still need to make my bed, but I have my clothes put away. So that's a good thing. I'm thankful for the next book I'm working on - Guns of War. I started it around 4 this morning and just closed it after 7 chapters. According to AI, it's going well. I'm thankful for leftovers. I had Christmas dinner yesterday with my son and his girlfriend. It was perfect and well timed. The turkey was done as soon as they arrived. Dinner was perfect. With leftovers today, I didn't need to think about what to eat and it took almost no time to prepare, just heat up. That's my day. What are you thankful for today? Let me know in the comments below. I will get the notifications caught up again. I promise. Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.

I'm still amazed that you get up that early and get so much done before I get up and get my son to school! But that sounds like a good day and that sounds like it was a nice Christmas dinner.

Clean sheets, laundry done, and book chapters written at 2am? Meanwhile, I hit snooze three times.

Sometimes I would like to hit snooze. It doesn't work for me. Once I'm awake, that's it. No trying to go back to sleep when the brain is awake.

@just4him I’m the opposite

Snooze is my best friend - I can absolutely fall back asleep if I give it the chance.

I'm thankful that we had power throughout the storm. We got a little bit of snow, sleet, and ice. I'm also thankful that I got to work on my best friend's diamond painting.

Glad that you had a good day and it's always ok not to be here when you're having a good day. The only thing I am grateful for today is having to wake up alive to correct whatever mistakes I have done and to have an opportunity to change.

@just4him Yeah, I'm trying to convince myself that everyday is a new day, a new day to be forgiven, to change, and to start anew.

I am so thankful that with this horrible cold and all the snow that we didn't lose power.. I'm also thankful that I don't have to venture outside for anything. Glad you were finally able to enjoy Christmas with your son & girlfriend. Sounds like a good time and good food.
