Blessings

Just because - 
There are 31 days in August, so I've decided to list 31 blessings off the top of my head.
  1. My husband's hand is healing nicely and he is cleared to go back to work by the middle of September!
  2. My 90 year old father called me through Facebook Messenger today. Don't tell me you can't teach an old dog new tricks. He had never even seen a Portal before the pandemic and now he can use a portal and an iPad with touch screens and we can talk AND see each other despite the frustrations of the day!
  3. I am able to go to work in a safe environment and be productive in my job.
  4. I was able to be with both of my (grown-up) children for their birthdays this month.
  5. The portable A+ Handbell Tree Stand that my husband and I developed earlier this year has proved to be quite popular among handbell enthusiasts.
  6. Virtual banking.
  7. Sourdough pancakes are yummy and a nice diversion from sourdough bread.
  8. There are 3 cooks in this household to share the daily meal preparation.
  9. Education is possible.
  10. I don't have to agree with someone to love them and value them as a person.
  11. Because my doctor listened to me 18 years ago, I was diagnosed with sleep apnea and began using a cpap at night. Because I consistently use my cpap every night, my quality of life is better now than it was then and I do not take any medication at all.
  12. Arranging music and sharing that music with others.
  13. Playing my flutes.
  14. Catching up with friends from various points of my life through online social media.
  15. Pantyhose are no longer part of my life!
  16. Rice cookers.
  17. Weekly zoom chats with my siblings.
  18. Central air conditioning.
  19. Laughter with friends and co-workers.
  20. Safe, reliable transportation.
  21. Creative genes.
  22. Multiple alarms available on my phone to keep me on task throughout the day/week!
  23. eBooks
  24. The growing popularity of solar energy
  25. Choices
  26. A loving Savior!
  27. Hearing the rain dripping through the leaves of the trees
  28. Seeing pictures of all my nieces and nephews and their growing families
  29. Florida life
  30. Learning from mistakes
  31. Supper ready to be served as I finish this list and blog post!
