    I'm grateful for the smile that a Kentucky Lawmaker gave me when I read about her proposed bill to "protect family values." I'm only sad that the sarcasm will likely go right over the head of the people to whom it is directed.

    I'm grateful for the advice and support of my TE sisters, and my own awareness of my state of recovery, in deciding to take it easy last week. Feeling much better.

    Grateful for the great horned owl hooting outside my window yesterday morning. Such a gentle sound from such a powerful bird.

    You make me smile, Oak.


    I'm grateful for finally feeling a little bit at home here in FL, feeling hope about the future, and just being happy in general these days.

    Happiness is good. :-)

    I too am grateful for feeling much happier than I have in months. Mexico was a fun place to visit, maybe even a good place to live one day, but not in Playa del Carmen and not now. Just happy to be living in our motorhome, in Florida, getting lots of good bike rides in, cooking fun food, and planning/doing projects, which we thrive on.

    I'm grateful that the heavy rain that will fall here tomorrow is not snow and ice.

    Also grateful for the great deal I got on the 6-cd set of Leonard Bernstein conducting all nine of Beethhoven's symphonies plus some overtures and concertos.

    NY, your comment reminded me that I guess I should be grateful to my mom for making me sit and watch every single one of those Leonard Bernstein's Young People's Concerts in the early 60s. No one in my family was musical (though my dad did have a short lived avocation as a drummer with Geoge Wein, the founder of the Newport Jazz Festival) and I never went to Symphony Hall in Boston, as a kid. But, watching those shows got me interested in classical music. Years later, when I moved to Miami in HS, one of my teachers used to take a bunch of us to see the Miami Philharmonic Orchestra monthly. We got cheap student seats, I would get dressed up (granny dresses!) and enjoy the teeny bit of culture in that cultural desert, in 1970-71.
