365 Days of Gratitude day 71

I am grateful for my husbands listening skills.  It is often underestimated as to the importance of being heard.  Active listening really makes a tremendous difference in a meaningful conversation.  Many times in a conversation it can be one sided or just superfulous listening.  My husband listens, engages and sometimes to my misfortune ;), remembers :):):).

365 Days of Gratitude day 68

I have said this one before however I feel it should be repeated....I am very grateful for a great nights sleep!
So many people have trouble sleeping though the night because of pain, things on their minds,  children to tend to and a host of other reasons. When I don't sleep well, it can really throw me off, effect my mood, my abilities, etc.  Sunday night I was up every hour, needless to say, Monday was challenging.  Last night, I slept awesome, went to bed early and got a good eight hours and feel like a champ today. I am very grateful for the sleep :):):)
