GRATEFUL FOR A NEW DAY

I am grateful to the Almighty for a beautiful new day.  It is autumn and it is lovely outside.

Since the last time that I wrote to you, life has been so much fun.....the Halloween Party....the Sports Book Club and lunch at The Old Pub in town.....Mahjong with the girls and today I'm back to Charles for an overnight.

Thank you Almighty for my health and my joy.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR A QUIET SABBATH

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has allowed me to have a blessed and quiet Sabbath!

Last night was wonderful. I made swordfish for Shabbat dinner.  Today Charlie and I ate breakfast together and left at the same time......me to go to services at PJC....Charles to go back to the apartment.

Tonight we are going to The Country House for a Halloween Party and dinner.  We are dressing up as Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head.   I'm beyond excited.

Thank you Almighty for the joy and peace in my life.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR LIVING IN THE MOMENT

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has helped me to live in the moment and appreciate my life.

Today is a busy day!!!   I spoke with Dom about my last will and testament.  I'm heading to Dr. Ludwig to check on my tooth.  I hope to walk and I have Plainview Meditation.

I need to head to the Supermarket because I need fish.  Charlie will be here for dinner tomorrow.

Life is good and I am grateful to the Almighty for that.

GRATEFUL FOR A WONDERFUL OVERNIGHT

 I am grateful to the Almighty because He allowed me to have a wonderful overnight with Charles.

Charles made a meatloaf for dinner complete with a salad and veggies.  Then we went to the Smithtown Library for a lecture on Long Island-250 Years of History.   Back in the apartment we had a drink....I put BenGay on Charles and off to bed we went.

This morning we had breakfast.  We goofed around.  I again put BenGay on him and he went off to a ROMEO CLUB luncheon and I had a phone session with Judith and came ho e to do food shopping.

I am grateful to the Almighty for this wonderful day.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR WAKING UP

I am grateful to the Almighty because I woke up to a beautiful autumn day.

I'm happy!  I'm healthy!  I'm ready to begin the day!  

Last night the girls played Mahjong at my house.  It was lots of fun. I also went to Plainview Meditation where I'm learning a great deal.

Today I was supposed to have an early morning meeting with Dom BUT that did not happen.  I will be going to Plainview Medtation and then going to the apartment for a wonderful overnight with Charles.  We are going t a library program in Smithtown called LONG ISLAND 250 YEARS:  THEN AND NOW.

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

GRATEFUL FOR LEARNING NOT TO WORK SO HARD

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has shown me that I don't have to work as hard as I do.

Charles left this morning and I will be going to the apartment tomorrow and come home on Wednesday.  We had a wonderfulul weekend at PJC and at All Souls culminating in a wonderful date with Anita and Ray at Bobby Sings Bobby.

I have decided not to work so hard with Dana and Madalyn.  Madalyn was horrible when she slept over and I raised my voice to her.   Dana will not let me speak to her even though I said that I would apologize.  I sent a Halloween card.  I am now moving on....the cards to Madalyn will continue to Madalyn but the texting and calling won't.

Thank you Almighty for teaching me to work less.

I am grateful.
