Today I am grateful for:

Sunshine, even though it was still really cold today.

My warm work coveralls, so that I can do chores and be outside and stay warm.

The comfort of touch. I'm very grateful that my sweetie and I remain cuddly and affectionate. I think one of the nicest things in life is to go to bed and snuggle with the one you love. To hold hands in the car when you drive somewhere, and when you sit together, and when you walk together. I'm amazed sometimes, that after all these years, maybe because of all these years, that this is still us.

Going to see a musical at the little theater in town. A group performed "Matilda", and there were lots of kids in it, and everyone did such a great job. It's really something in this day and age to go to a small theater with a stage, to see a local group of unpaid performers, and it's such a community thing. There were lots of people in the audience that were related to the people in the play, and the theater itself is run mostly by volunteers. There were also some really great performances in the play. Great singing, and they even had a live accompanist.
