There are 31 days in August, so I've decided to list 31 blessings off the top of my head.
- My husband's hand is healing nicely and he is cleared to go back to work by the middle of September!
- 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!
- I am able to go to work in a safe environment and be productive in my job.
- I was able to be with both of my (grown-up) children for their birthdays this month.
- The portable A+ Handbell Tree Stand that my husband and I developed earlier this year has proved to be quite popular among handbell enthusiasts.
- Virtual banking.
- Sourdough pancakes are yummy and a nice diversion from sourdough bread.
- There are 3 cooks in this household to share the daily meal preparation.
- Education is possible.
- I don't have to agree with someone to love them and value them as a person.
- 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.
- Arranging music and sharing that music with others.
- Playing my flutes.
- Catching up with friends from various points of my life through online social media.
- Pantyhose are no longer part of my life!
- Rice cookers.
- Weekly zoom chats with my siblings.
- Central air conditioning.
- Laughter with friends and co-workers.
- Safe, reliable transportation.
- Creative genes.
- Multiple alarms available on my phone to keep me on task throughout the day/week!
