Today, I am Grateful and Thankful for many things and many people...
Pat's smile and continued strength - this lady has proven to me that I am NOT in control. Our lives belong to God Almighty and that, He alone make the tides come in and go out - the tides of our lives as well
for a relaxed day - cool and enjoyable. One of the enjoyments is the fact that the storm is so docile
that I am renewed by the cooler weather
that I wanted to "eat", "eat", "eat" last night because of the possibility of a bad weather day to come. I, thankfully, resisted that compulsion. I did minimal damage.
That I have dieted and walked for a week and a half to no visible results of weight loss. Precious, on the other hand, has been dieting with me and looks swevlt !
Miss Precious is getting her teeth cleaned this Friday. I am taking the day off due to conflicting hours between work and getting her there and home after her procedure.
that I got very excited about receiving my "red letter Bible" that I have anxiously awaited in the mail yesterday
for the good seats to the Astro's Cubs game Sept. 13th for "Catholic Night". Cardinal DiNardo will throw out the first pitch
that, although I must go into work as usual, I am not as fearful that I will get stuck there by high water at the end of my shift
But, I will be prepared in case I must stay put
for the Grace and forgiveness of God. I strive to be pious, fail most often but, rather than throw up my hands, today I persevere
I am especially Grateful for role models that talk about their struggles on the same lines as above. One beautiful, loving and dedicated Priest that I have come to love and respect - when I stop judging, God shows me Heaven on earth -
THANK YOU, Father in Heaven

Weather-wise, we dodged another bullet.
