I Am Trying Hard to Think......

So it is days like yesterday and today that I made this blog. The days that you don't feel real grateful but you know you should. So I am writing to help me think of things I am grateful for, so here it goes............Well I am trying ok.......

I am glad that I get to go to sleep and try again.
I am glad for a half an hour of quiet at the church this morning (even if it was at 6:00 AM)
I am glad that it will be warmer soon. (hopefully tomarrow)
I am glad that I the CO detector hasn't gone off today (really that is a great thing - hopefully it is fixed)
I am glad that the dishwasher works.
I am ..... (I am still trying)
I am glad my 9 year old wrote a book today (about horses).
I am glad my dog likes me (that is why I have them so that when it doesn't seem like anyone else does at least the dog does - notice I said "seems" I know they really do it is just in the perspective)

Well hopefully that helped me a little bit. I guess every little bit helps.

Ok so I still need a little help. So I will go to the next thing I try.... talks from the Prophets. This is what I found.

"Let us follow Him. Let us emulate His example. Let us obey His word. By so doing, we give to Him the divine gift of gratitude." President Thomas S Monson Oct. 2008

Well I guess I will follow the quote and keep trying to be grateful. And I think I will go and hug my kids and husband. That usually helps too.
