My Stepsister is doing this on facebook quite a bit, This helps her keep her from falling into a depression with the family situation we have going on right now and to focus on the good stuff in life. I thought with all of the crap that goes on in our lives with our sick relatives, I think maybe doing this thread will help people focus on the good stuff in life, maybe give some hope to some people who are struggling out there. Feel free to contribute to this thread!
One: I got a vacuum cleaner belt for my vacuum online today for 10% off today, plus free shipping.

2)we went out to dinner for moms birthday tonight and had a good time. First time in years that we’ve gotten to spend her birthday with Her. However we walked out of the restaurant tonight and right in to the cameramen for a certain very popular TV show.

2) My amazon order is shipping out today
3) So many people are responding to this post, this is very cool. I hope it's helping them. :)
I am sure it is. I’ve waited for a lot of things in my lifetime and I wasn’t always patient either but the things I waited for even though they were important to me pale in comparison with what you are waiting for.
I wouldn’t dare insult you by pretending to understand how you feel. I can’t imagine and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.
Promise me you will let us know when your nightmare or living hell is over. My grandpa used to say that heaven and hell are right here on earth. You know what? He was right.
I absolutely adored my grandpa. I spent a lot of time with him growing up and he spoke many words of wisdom. I didn’t quite understand everything he said when I was younger but that’s okay, because he knew that one day I would. He planted seeds to grow, food for thought and his words often come to my mind now and they certainly live in my heart. I feel that’s the kind of grandfather you would be.
My grandpa was larger than life to me. He was the kind of guy that anywhere you went with him, everybody knew him. That was cool but what I especially remember from my earliest years until his death he always proudly introduced me to everyone he knew. I felt so special when I was with him. He was a kind and generous man. I don’t mean that in a materialistic way, although he did help others when he could, but generous with the gift of self, his heart, which is most important.
Please enjoy your upcoming Wednesday off since your mom will be busy with her activities. Please post what a great time you had. Do something fun!
freakin patience is a lot easier to proclaim that it is to implement .
I am going to have hope with you if you don’t mind. Your situation breaks my heart. I have a feeling that you would be a phenomenal grandfather. Many hugs!
I admire your faith and hope and your desire for justice. So I am going to believe right along with you, okay? 💗 Transitional times are the hardest but one day, one very sweet day, it will happen. I believe it and I know you do too. When it does happen I sincerely hope that you will find peace. You deserve it.
HOPE for that phone call regarding arrests . im sure its going to happen ( the judge and detectives have no doubts as to what happened ) but i haveta say -- the wait is difficult .
my grandson doesnt know that i exist . that phone call will remedy that injustice .
My happy moment was reading that you saw the ultrasound of your grandchild. How wonderful!
I don’t have grandchildren but I have a granddog. My daughter has the cutest little toy poodle that I watch for her sometimes. This little dog thinks he’s human. Hahaha
Is this your first grandchild?
I cooked a nice meal today. Don't usually do that.
I did the first part of cleaning my oven, been putting it off too long. It is with the baking soda paste method so it has to sit til in the a.m. then I finish.
My nice neighbor lady stopped by and we had a nice chat.
My good things:
I am caught up on laundry, except the sheets.
I baked for the first time in 2 months.
I saw an ultrasound photo of my first grandchild today. The baby will be here in March.
