GRATEFUL FOR THE SABBATH

 I am grateful to the Almighty because today is the Sabbath.

It's a day of rest and thankfulness for me.

Last night I went to Plainview Jewish Center for a Sabbath service and dinner under the stars.

It was beautiful!!!

Today I will be at services.

I will be going to the apartment today through Monday......returning for Mahjong and then on Tuesday....a BIG vacation to Pittsburgh where I will meet all Charlie's friends from college.

I am grateful to the Almighty for my joy of life.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR TAKING MEDICATION

 I am grateful to the Almighty because He has created medication for PTSD.

Sometimes I get overwhelmed by life.  Yesterday Charles and I purchased two cemetery plots at Locust Valley.  Although I was happy about this the dream of a "normal husband" came back and it was hard to let it go.  Thanks to Zoloft!!!

Today I have chores to do and packing for our next vacation to Pittsburg which starts Tuesday.....bills to pay and mail.....medication to be picked up.......packing....a book to finish and a dinner at PJC.

Charles will be going back to St. James.  I made a delicious dinner last night.  I will be heading to St. James after services tomorrow.

I am grateful to the Almighty for all of this.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR A NEW LIFE

 I am grateful to the Almighty because He has given me a new life.

It's a joyful one.

Charles arrived this morning after Matzah went for his medicinal bath.  We went to the Locust Valley Cemetery which is non-sectarian and purchased 2 plots.

Susan is arriving with my new pocketbook.

Remi began first grade and Madalyn is in pre-kindergarden.

It goes fast.

Charles and I will walk later and I'm making flounder for dinner!!!

Thank you Almighty.

I'm grateful for my normal life.

GRATEFUL FOR A ST. JAMES VACATION

 I am grateful to the Almighty because He has allowed me to have another St. James vacation.

I left after services and drove to St. James.  I came back today.

It was an absolutely wonderful vaca.  We visited Dan in Long Beach.  We walked at Avalon and saw the devastation that the flood brought. We went to Long Beach in Smithtown too.  I got to make dinner and sit outside with my love and watch the US Open with him.

I'm home now.

Charlie will be here tomorrow because we are purchasing cemetery plots.

Thank you Almighty for my new life.

I am grateful.
