Today I'm grateful that we finally fixed the shelf in the linen closet that was on the verge of collapsing.

I'm also grateful for how amazing the baked beans turned out tonight (lots of veggies included for my new diet too!)

I'm thankful that our neighbour needed us to help her pick up something at the store tonight, which allowed me to run two errands, which means I won't have to go out shopping tomorrow - I love a relaxing day at home!!

I'm grateful for the wonderful coverage of the Olympics...how we are able to watch these amazing athletes from all over the world.

And I'm grateful that I feel stronger these days, more energy, more physical stamina, more muscle strength than I've felt in many, many years.
