GRATEFUL FOR A NEW DAY

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

He has given me health and happiness.  I am enjoying each day.  Yesterday I attended Lunch and Learn at PJC where we spoke of the history of the Conservative Jewish Movement.  I went to Plainview Meditation where I made it to Level 2.  I walked at The Home Depot. I bought my June cards at CVS.  I paid Freddy.  At night, I made dinner and attended The Sisterhood Book Club.

Today is a busy and fun day.  I am going to pack for the Minnewaska Lodge vacation this weekend with Hilary, Izzy and Remi.  I need to buy Madalyn graduation presents.  I'm going out to dinner with Margie too.  I have an appointment with Kyra.

I am grateful to the Almighty for this new, happy, healthy day BUT more than that I am grateful to the Almighty for my new wonderful life.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR ENJOYING SUMMER

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has given me an entirely new life and allowed me to enjoy summers in retirement.

The Almighty has given me Charles which in turn has given me an entire new life. Yesterday we went to visit his old friend Paula who lives on Roosevelt Island.  I looked at the island with new eyes and thought, "What if we lived there too?"  So now I'm on a new quest.

Today I'm heading to PJC for Lunch and Learn, Plainview Meditation and The Sisterhood Book Club.  My new life is filled with joy.

I am grateful to the Almighty for all that He has given me.

 Thank you.

GRATEFUL TO THE ALMIGHTY FOR A WONDERFUL WEEKEND WITH CHARLES

 I am grateful to the Almighty because He gave me a wonderful weekend with Charles.

Hilary and Izzy picked up Remi on Saturday afternoon.  Charles and I went back to St. James and had a delicious dinner in Galiano's.  We then went to Celebrate St. James and saw South Pacific.   It was wonderful.

Yesterday I went to All Souls Church with Charles where he did a reading.  After the coffee hour we went to The Long Island Museum and saw an exhibit on The 70's and one on the Revolutionary War.....this year is our 250th anniversary.   A delicious dinner followed in Centerport at The Old Mill Restaurant on the water.  We sat outside on the deck and had drinks too.

Today I went back to Plainview.  Freddy has put all the chairs on the deck and it looks beautiful.

I will take myself out to dinner and Charles will be here tonight after the wake he went to.  

Tomorrow we're going to Roosevelt Island to visit Paula.

I'm in love and beyond happy.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.

I am grateful to the Almighty because Charles and I had a wonderful day in St. James with Remi.  It was a dream come true for me.

GRATEFUL FOR FOLLOWING MY DREAM

I am beyond grateful to the Almighty because He has made sure that I could follow my dreams.

I have the finances to do wonderful things thanks to the Almighty. Oscar, my gardener, has created a beautiful front garden at the house.  He created a memorial for Matzah too. Freddy put in new lights in the front and the mudroom and is now building a banister.

The Almighty gave me Charles and he is taking me to the eye doctor today. I hope the checkup is a good one.

I am grateful to the Almighty for all that He has done for me.

Thank you.
