GRATEFUL FOR THE SABBATH

I am grateful to the Almighty because today is the Sabbath.   I am grateful that the Almighty has given me a day of rest.  I need it.

I came home yesterday from a lovely visit to Anita's where I dropped Charles off to begin his trip to New Orleans and Bolixi......he will be back on Tuesday.

Today I will be going to services and resting and relaxing.

Tonight I'm having dinner with Margie.

I am grateful to the Almighty for giving me this wonderful new life.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR THE SABBATH AND SUKKOT

 I am grateful to the Almighty because today was the second day of Sukkos and I went to services.  I didn't go yesterday because I was exhausted and quite cold because the temperature had dropped and my boiler wasn't working.

Freddy came after I called today and fixed it.

Services were wonderful and there was a delightful luncheon in the Sukkoh. 

Charles will be here at 2PM.  I will be driving him to Anita's as he and Anita and Elizabeth will be flying to New Orleans and Biloxi to visit relatives.  He will be back on Tuesday and staying over at my house.  Wednesday we will be taking our Bible class.

I also changed my H2O appointment to accommodate my class with Charles.

I am grateful to the Almighty for the good in my life.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR UNDERSTANDING MYSELF

 I am grateful to the Almighty because I am FINALLY BEGINNING to understand myself and my needs and wants.

I need to be positive with myself and to appreciate my accomplishments.  I can't be so hard on myself and I need to LET GO OF THAT WHICH DOESN'T SERVE ME SO I CAN HEAL!!!!

Today I will be driving to the apartment to meet up with Charlie and take a course with him.  I'm excited.

Forms need to be filled out and mailed and they will be.

The holiday of Sukkot begins tonight.

Thank you Almighty for all your help.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR A WONDERFUL WEEKEND

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

 Charlie and I were at the Celebrate St. James Theatre Saturday night to see a wonderful presentation of Murders on Long Island.  We had dinner in a Spanish restaurant called Sangria.Sunday night we went to the Smithtown Historical Society to hear a lecture on the history of Smithtown.  In between we watched a Met game and a Yankee game and The Penguin.

Charlie really helped me to deal with issues with Hilary.  He said the same thing as Judith.  I am blessed to have him in my life.

Tomorrow I'm heading back to St. James because our course is starting.

I am so beyond grateful to the Almighty for all the good in my life.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR THE MIND/BODY CONNECTION

 I am grateful to the Almighty because it was He who led me to practice yoga.

It was there that I learned about the mind/body connection. I know that  the Almighty is always in my life.

Tonight begins the Yom Kippur fast.  I hope and pray that the Almighty will grant me another year to live, love and be healthy and happy.  There are so many things that I am grateful for.

Dana and Madalyn will be spending the holiday with me and for that I am also grateful.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful to you for my life.  May I and all my loved ones be sealed in the Book of Life.

Amen!!!!!
