Day 6

It's been especially difficult today to count my blessings...I was just in a lousy mood.

I was happy to put on my cotton yellow jacket today.  I'd forgotten about it but spotted it in my closet this morning.  I don't have a lot of clothes that I just love, that make me feel good when I wear them...but this jacket does.

And I'm always grateful for a good hair day.  I have been trying for quite some time to wash my hair every other day and sometimes "every other day" my hair looks just okay.  But today it all worked!

We had some disappointing news from a family member.  I listened to my husband have some difficult conversations with his siblings and I am grateful that they have each other and work at having a good relationship with one another.

I'm grateful for my old pink flannel nightgown.  After lousy days it's comforting to throw on.

And I'm grateful for my husband and his dedication to his role as the "garbage man".  Every Monday night he gathers it all up and takes it out to the curb.  My job is to make sure I don't hit the can as I reverse out of the driveway in the morning!
