gratitude

On a week when I didn't get around to thankful thursday, Peggy preaches on gratitude. I'm not so sure about having no complaints, myself, but I totally agree with her description of using God as an "unedited sounding board. If I have to yell at somebody, why not God, I mean God’s a tough mother and can take it, right?" Amen.

Though it is true that some things you hate may end up leading to something useful in the long run. So I'm including the knee pain that various people have had to listen to me bitch about this week in my this week's thankful list:
  • Cozy sweaters.
  • Seeing more of [livejournal.com profile] jw1776.
  • Dinner & shopping with [livejournal.com profile] dianthus.
  • Relaxing time at yoga, even when I do lose my balance.
  • Periodic knee pain is reminding me to keep my knee soft and to build muscle.
  • [livejournal.com profile] jw1776, [livejournal.com profile] skydancer, [livejournal.com profile] dianthus, and others who've listened to me kvetch about the knee.
  • [livejournal.com profile] zoethe passed the bar exam.
  • Catching up on some things at work.
  • I'm good enough at massage to ease a dear one's mouse arm.
  • I'm still laughing at this Home On The Strange sequence.
    [livejournal.com profile] secanth is finally at home with [livejournal.com profile] falconcat. Congratulations!
