What Blessings Did You Have Today?

I'm starting a new thread, in the hope to set a positive aura. Counting your blessings is a great way to realize what you have (as opposed to take focus on what you don't have). Since every day is a new day, each day presents a different blessing than the previous days. The list may not be complete for the day but at least what you remember is important. :)

Ok, I'll start off...


My blessings today:
- someone lent me money to survive tomorrow
- no one is sick among us in the family
- i get to use the internet from an internet cafe
- we've been getting used to the dark that probably by the next electric bill, the bill will be much lower
- climate cool enough that having no electric fan is just fine

Good idea C5.

- My auntie in hospital is better than first thought.
- I'm approaching the final stages of a big project at work and, today, got the seal of approval from someone I respect.
- And my cats are using their fancy new water fountain without splashing all over the floor.

My amplifier gave up the ghost just before I need it for concert tomorrow. A friend lent me his.
My volume pedal broke, managed to find and buy a new one.
Both sound better than the old ones.
Had two phone calls telling me that the C.D's I made for church services work really well.
I don't have any debts. (A great blessing that!!)
I am warm, dry and fed.
I could go on and on because my glass is ALWAYS half full.

- found favor with the landlord for not throwing us out the house for not being able to pay 3 months' rent

- found money in a pocket meant to be laundered (will survive the day) :)

- mom called to ask the kids for vacation

- woke up at 3am to do the laundry (it's at that time the water is strong

@sylvie, it's really great to see the glass half FULL. :)

That's excellent news, C5. Well done.

I had fun at a Christmas lunch and, afterwards, was witness to four big, boofy, blokey colleagues singing Material Girl at a karaoke place. I laughed until I cried for most of the afternoon.
