16 May - What I'm Thankful for Today

Good afternoon from sunny, warm Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA. It's currently 64 F. We had rain. I have much to be thankful for today; the rain is one of them. I'm thankful for the sleep I got last night. I have a sleep thing on my fitness tracker to help me get eight hours a night. Last night I was close at 7.55 hours. It gave me a perfect sleep score, but I missed because it wasn't eight hours. I'm thankful I got all my work done on the computer this morning before I went up for Canasta at noon. I got the notifications finished. I love spending time with you. I played my games, and I got a chapter worked on in In the Hands of Mighty Men. It was a very good morning. I'm thankful for Canasta. There were eight of us, so two tables of four. It was a close game. The last hand could have gone either way. Sadly, it wasn't our way. Though we were well over 5000 points. The other team had over 6000. Okay, that's my day. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.

I wish I could sleep 8 hours. I sleep for 4 or 4.5. I get up to feed the cat am usually up for an hour or two and go back to sleep for another hour or hour and a half. That pond is very blue. We don't get water that blue in the East.

@just4him I have tried tracking my sleep with a fitness tracker and a smartwatch. They are always lying to me.

@snowy22315 I'm sorry they are. This one isn't 100%. I know what time I went to bed and what time I got up. This morning was close, and I did get over eight hours in reality as well as on the app.

I think it's more a reflection of the sky. I'm working with my fitness tracker sleep function to get the necessary sleep. It's working. I never slept more than six hours before.

I'm thankful that we have another recourse after losing the Reconsideration. As soon as I can figure out how to fill out the complicated form, I will send it in. Have a great day.

Yes, it would, but this hill belongs to a senior community. No kids.

I’m thankful when the storms came through early this morning no one was hurt despite the baseball size hail. It took out windshields, and totaled cars, but no one was hurt.

Congrats on the game and having a productive day. Take those trackers with a grain of salt. You don't know what they might miss. It's meant to give you a general idea. I'm thankful for the sun after two days of rain. I'm thankful for the syringes that arrived in the mail today. I decided to order extra from amazon because the VA isn't reliable. I'm not worried about formulia, because I've got extra of that. I'll get some refills going as soon as I can on that. I'm thankful to still have George and Chilly. Even if Chilly makes getting anything accomplished quickly.

I know they're not fully accurate, but they're pretty close in some cases. I'm glad the sun came out after two days of rain. I'm glad you got extra syringes from Amazon. I'm glad you still have George and Chilly. George is making great progress. Soon you won't need the syringes for the tube feed.

@just4him That's one area where he's taking his time. He needs to eat enough in order to replace the tube, some days he doesn't want anything, and others I can get him to eat like two hotdogs, or a hormel completes microwave meal. Some meals he only eats half or less.

I'm thankful that my grandson did okay getting his wisdom teeth extracted. I'm hoping he isn't in much pain today. Mostly I'm thankful for the little things that we take for granted. Glad you had a good day and got to play Canasta and also got a chapter worked on for your book.

@just4him I asked my daughter how my grandson is this morning but he wasn't up yet. It's probably better if he gets plenty of sleep. I aways love the covers your pick for your books.

I hope he isn't in much pain either. I hope it won't take as long as expected before he's playing the trumpet again. Yes, we take a lot for granted. Sunshine for instance. It's beautiful out there today. Thank you. It was a good game. I need to get the cover ready for the book. I don't know if I'll get it published this year. I hope so. There's a lot of work to do. I'm thankful it's going well. This is only my first edit of this book. So, I have a way to go with it.

Good day to you! Last night, I woke up because of a bad dream. Fortunately, my partner was there to comfort me. I couldn't remember what happened in my dream though but I do felt terrified. Today is Friday in our country. Right now, I'm commuting to our office. It's quite a sunny day today. Not too hot, which is good. Hoping for a safe arrival at work today. Have a great day!
