1. Car Service gave me $5 for a mocha (they have a coffee machine). I had asked for $5 to be added to my bill so I could get a mocha but that would muck up accounting.
2. My son received a half-dollar for sharing with the gold dealer a little-known fact of the Declaration of Independence signing.
3. I did not get drenched nor was hit by a car while walking on this grey gloomy day.
4. My expensive medications were paid for fully by my our Health Savings Account.
5. I was allowed to activate my new computer's copy of office 2010 after uninstalling it on my old PC by a call to Microsoft. I saw that I still had Office Ultimate 2007 on the old PC.
6. Bed Bath & Beyond honoured my $5 coupon postdated as I furnished a receipt.

Today I am grateful for rising temperatures, old friends who want to keep in touch, and for my uncanny talent for finding free reading material!

Little Ones: Grateful for friendly neighbors. My husband's corny jokes (sort of grateful!). My daughter's mindless singing. My son's continuous straight A's now in high school.
OK, maybe some of these are big ones too.

1.) Thankful that I can freely celebrate the birth of my Lord and Savior, Jesus!
2.) I appreciate the privilege of being raised by parents who taught me "where there's a will, there's a way" and to think outside the box (problem-solve).
3.) Grateful for a husband who willingly works and allows me to be a stay-at-home mom/grandmother.
4.) Thankful I have had the opportunity to teach my kids/g-kids that the greatest gifts I can give have my handprints/heartprints all over them!
