  Gratitude
  1. The heat has finally broken
  2. I got to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory yesterday and I saw the first run of the original Willie Wonka in a movie theater with my best friend Terrie O'Meara (yes this means I am old)
  3. When the heat left it seemed to take with it most of the allergens (crap in the air like mold and pollen) that was making my son, my husband and myself sick
  4. Sam didn't have an ear infection after all
  5. I get to be home all next week with Sam
  6. The church around the corner had a slot left in vacation bible school for next week
  7. I am still in the running for the job I really want
  8. I will find out if I have the job next week
  9. My tomatoes are finally coming in
  10. Two of my "commercial sites" seem to be taking off, at least in a small way
  11. I get to go to an A.A. meeting this morning
  12. I get to see Sam "graduate" from summer school at noon today
  13. After 4 months of not being covered our health insurance kicks in on August 1
  14. Chuck's job is going well
  15. New sponsee
  16. The Annual A.A. family camping trip and retreat is next weekend

Comments:
I am grateful you did a grateful list. I too am grateful the heat finally lifted...boy it was HOT. I can't wait to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I tell my daughter she is acting like "Veruca Salt" from the original movie "I want it and I want it now" except I can't turn her into a blueberry and ship her down a shoot...lol.
Peace,
JJ
 
We have yet another thing in common...Charlie! Saw the original more times than I could count at that age. Going to buy the new DVD as soon as it's out. Love me some Johnny Depp, too!

Great grateful list. Good on you!
 
Good list.
You'll have to keep us filled in on the AA camping trip/retreat. Of course, pictures as well.
 
It's been awhile since I've sat down and done a gratitude list. Thanks for reminding me of the importance of them.
