GRATEFUL FOR MY NEW LIFE

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

Shabbath dinner with Charles was wonderful.  I made salad and swordfish with carrots.  We start with a cocktail that I make and end with one as dessert.  Charles is so respectful of Shabbat services that I do and candle lighting.

Today I attended services.  I will read and walk at The Home Depot. Charles went to a Commack Library program with Stephen.

Tonight we are having dinner with Ray and Cindy. They live in Plainview and know many restaurants that I don't know.  We're going to Villa Monte. I'm very excited.

Thank you Almighty  for this new life.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR LOVING MYSELF

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has taught me how to love myself.

It took a long time BUT I finally learned how to do this.

I've gone shopping for me.  I got a manicure and pedicure. I joined Plainview Meditation and am learning how to throw away false pictures.  I am aware that Hilary is a narcissist and I learned how to deal with it. I'm eating healthy and exercising too. I'm very proud of me.

 Today I'm getting my hair blown out and going to Plainview Meditation.  I will walk at The Home Depot.

Charles will be here to spend Mother's Day Weekend with me. We will do the Sabbath together. Tomorrow we will be going out with Ray and Cindy in Plainview. I will finally learn about the Plainview that I never knew.  Hilary is hosting a brunch on Sunday and I bought Remi lots of gifts too.

I am grateful to the Almighty for my life.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR QUIET IN THE MORNING

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has allowed me to have quiet  in the morning.  It's a blessing that I NEVER had before.  Waking up in the morning to peacefulness is an absolutely beautiful gift.

Today will be a quit day.  I'm going food shopping.  I will walk at The Home Depot and then do a session at Plainview Meditation.

Margie and I will have dinner tonight at Mario's and I'll speak to Charles at the end of the day.

I am grateful to the Almighty for my new life.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR A CALM MORNING

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has given me a calm morning.  I really appreciate calm mornings as this was something that I NEVER had.  I am grateful to the Almighty for the gift of calmness.

Today will be a quiet day.  I'm treating myself to a manicure/pedicure this morning and Plainview meditation later in the afternoon.  I will walk at The Home Depot and I hope to finish my book....The Long Island Reads....Doorman.

Thank you Almighty for the calmness of this morning.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR A NEW DAY

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

I am happy. I am healthy and ready to begin the new day.

Mahjong was fun last night.  I know exactly who my cast of characters are and what to expect so it was really fun playing the game.  The girls left about 10:15.

Today I will be at the Verizon store dealing with technologies many problems. Then I have a dental cleaning as well as a discussion about my bonding.

I hope to walk at The Home Depot as well as clean the kitchen and both bathrooms. I hope to have tofu and veggies for dinner.

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

Thank you. 


UPDATE:   I am delighted to report that Dr. Kurtz will redo my bonding. I have a new product to use on my teeth before I retire too!   Big fun!

GRATEFUL FOR A WONDERFUL WEEKEND WITH MY HUSBAND

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has given me a wonderful weekend with my husband Charles.

Friday night, Shabbos dinner was wonderful. Charles is beyond respectful. Services were quite good too.  Then we left for the apartment.  Charles made dinner Saturday night and we slept late on Sunday......had sex and breakfast and went to the Smithhaven Mall and got everything done.  We went to the new Galiano Wine Bar and Restaurant and then had Japanese food for dinner.

This morning we went to the Sports Book Club and lunch with the guys.

I came home to play Mahjong at my house.  I'm hosting.

Thank you Almighty for this wonderful weekend.

I am grateful.

I will be heading to the apartment and will be back on Monday!

Thank you Almighty for all your help.

I am grateful.
