Three Things...Gratitude Thread

[leebee]

In regard to yesterday's topic/post, after a lot of introspection and thought, I'll say my mother-in-law. I know, believe, and felt that she truly loved me, just as she loved her daughters and sons. We lost her unexpectedly on Thanksgiving of 2018, and life has been different ever since.

Numbers...
I have turned into a math geek in my old age, so MATH!!

My wrist watch. It's analog, not digital, and I love knowing what time it is. I don't have a phone and nobody wears watches anymore (because they have phones) so I am really happy I bought a watch.

My scale. I know, the woman has lost her mind!! After decades of being anywhere from overweight to morbidly obese, I finally had bariatric surgery and lost a LOT of weight. I have managed to keep most of it off (there's about 5 pounds I wiggle around with), and seeing the numbers on the scale each morning reinforces that I did lose weight successfully, and I have kept it off... and don't hate myself for being weak anymore.

I’m with you LeeBee on the scale choice. I love the bright and easy to see read out that includes tenths! ( makes me feel better when even just this go in the right direction) As a Type2 Diabetic, it is one ore way for me to feel in control and to rein myself in when I get out of control.

My Mickey Mouse analog clock. I appreciate digital clocks, but I guess I am just old school and need to see the spatial aspect of an analog clock to really understand the passage of time.

I just love numbers in general, especially when there is something cool like a palindrome week in a month. (as there was this month)

Honorable mention: Disney Trip Countdowns!

I've only had mine for around 8 months, I'm doing my first long journey (over 400 miles one way) next month which I'm rather apprehensive about!

Thank you.. I find the concept interesting.. look forward to your trip report... I liken it to folks hearing about the first automobile..."where you going to feed it"

Hugs extra dear Leebee.

I was gifted a dozen tasty mini birthday cupcakes this morning. Dad and I enjoyed a couple and it was fun sharing the other eight. I would have loved giving each of you one.
