I am grateful for @The Mix  


What are you grateful of today?

I've learnt two people can look at the exact same thing and see something completly different.

    We are so grateful for Postre Hotel caterers and local bakery Gelabert Panaderia & Pasteleria for producing under contract savoury tarts, sweet cakes and buffet produce for our private hotel since our catering staff went sick. One couple went to hospital from a car accident so we had to get caterers in to feed our 40 guests. We've also got 2 bands to entertain tomorrow night, the weekend ll next week. Our weather being horrible means we are under obligation to our guests and not let them down even if it eats into our profits. Since I was up at 4 am, now I can return to bed!

    I'm driven by self doubt.

    I find I'm not particularly grateful for anything, and that I take a lot of things for granted. Living like you automatically deserve things and have entitlements isn't particularly enjoyable, or fair, compared to working hard and earning it instead.

    I'm grateful to this thread for reminding me of that.

    I am very grateful to Jose, the oldest son of the Spanish family we gave refuge at Sant Llorenç. Throughout yesterday he replaced the heavy terracotta barrel tiles our roof from last week's storms and also rebuilt our new greenhouse, reglazing it this morning with polycarbonate safety glass. Talented, polite and trustworthy, he's also very good at accounts so we decided to employ him full time and give him a car.

    @Floxy @Thoughtsy @independent_ @The Mix Group chat. My lovely fleece. Sausages. A caring boyfriend.
    So salaam worthy friend. Come back soon! That's the end.  Till another Arabian night! A whole new world, a new fantastic point of view. No one to tell us no, or where to go, or say we're only dreaming. A whole new world, with new horizons to pursue. I'll chase them anywhere, there's time to spare. Let me share this whole new world with you. A whole new world, that's where I'll be.

    Also my lovely new hoodie, Boker Plus Rold for outdoor use, also British bangers and chips, ham egg and chips and mejool dates. Oh, and a gin & tonic will go nicely thank you. =)

    A very self aware comment! And great thing to realise. 

    Think a lot of people are the same. I used to think “i dont enjoy anything in life” but then realised there are many things i would hate if was removed from my life

    Definitely agree there!  Was having such a terrible time last night But my partners dogs cheered me up,  even if I couldn't use chat because the youngest laid on my laptop and licked my fingers while another cried 😂 

    I am also super grateful for my partner as usual and the times I get to see him even if they are brief x

    And @Millie2787
    For being there for me last night 💕

    Today I am grateful for the lovely lady at the b&b I was at yesterday, my friend from school and gymnastics as I could use that as an excuse to get out the boring place me and my mum were at.
