August 16 - What I'm Thankful for Today

I had a difficult day today, but it was still a good day because it's the day the Lord has made. I'm thankful I could go to church this morning. With my car at my son's, a friend who lives close picks me up. It was a wonderful morning. I'm thankful for the fitness goals I achieved this morning. My knees aren't thankful. I've got over 21K steps including my hourly goals. I had my first 10K by 6 AM. Yes, you read that right. I was very upset so I took a walk at daybreak. I'm glad I did. I saw a deer cross the trail. I also took another walk this afternoon when I logged off the computer. I'm thankful for the time I was here. It was short, but I did visit a few posts and took care of a couple of notifications. I'll try to do better tomorrow. I'm thankful for movies to take my mind off what upset me so badly. I watched a movie and a half. I found The Greatest Showman on Disney + and I watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang until the intermission just now. I'll finish it tomorrow. That's my movie not on any of the streaming channels. I only watched half because my son is picking me up tomorrow when he gets off work. I have an early morning doctor's appointment, my annual Medicare wellness appointment. I'm going to be talking to him about knee replacement. I'm thankful those movies helped my mood as my only other thought was venting and I didn't want to do that. It also meant no book work today. I didn't want to spend the day tomorrow fixing what I did today because I wasn't in any frame of mind to write. Okay, that's my day. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me of the clouds today on my walk. I'll see you tomorrow.

I enjoyed my Sunday doing surveys, fan fictions and writing good news stories.

We had a bad night of heavy rains and croaking frogs until morning. Now it is 9 am and the sun is coming out. Thanks for that.

@just4him but not for long. There was rain again after 2 hours of sun. This rainy season now is terrible that the ground is always wet.

I am sorry that something upset you so bad. I hope you find some sort of resolution to it and tomorrow is a better day for you. I hope that you are able to find some answers for your knees with your wellness check up tomorrow. I am thankful today was a quiet day. I am thankful Mike is a wonderful son and is staying the night with his mom. She doesn't want to be alone at nights.

Thank you. When my son picked me up we had a bit of conversation about what happened yesterday and he went a long way to reassure me about several areas. I'm doing much better today. I'm better focused on what I need to accomplish today. I'm glad Mike spent the night with his mom.

Yesterday was an ok day. I did go to church yesterday. I also went to Target to get some earrings I ordered. My leg started hurting me yesterday afternoon. I put some icy hot on it and it helped. It's not hurting today. Today I cleaned out the litter boxes, the hummingbird feeder, and the bird feeder. I also changed the tablecloth and put a new cover over the bathroom fan. Lily threw up so I cleaned that up too. She's been stubborn and won't come in.
