25.01.2022 The previous owners had planted a passionfruit vine, which is great as I really enjoy passionfruit. The problem, it had overgrown, and was encroaching over the fence and into the neighbour's yard and the vine was planted where I want to establish the herb garden. A wise woman suggested I harvest the passion flowers and dry them and make my own Tea. Passion flower tea benefits: boosts GABA levels in the brain, which promotes relaxation, great as a sleep aid... shown to ease generalized anxiety with fewer side effects than prescribed sedatives effective inreducing the intensity of menopausal hot flashes *information courtesy of Healthline 365 DAYS OF GRATITUDE EACH DAY I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING IN MY LIFE FOR WHICH I'M GRATEFUL FOR.

24.01.2022 Food themed today. I was able to buy some super fresh eggplant (aubergines) over the weekend. Today I decided to make some crumbed steaks though used the organic rye flour as the initial dusting as well as the final coat after the 'egg' wash layer. I added some spices and dried herbs to the final coating and they turned out perfectly, very yummy and enjoyable, the perfect appetizer before our dinner. They were so yummy we didn't feel like much of our dinner. I'm glad hu...bby goes with the flow with my experimental cooking. We were talking about it this evening in the nearly 6 years we've been together he can only remember one meal which was a bit of a flop but he ate it anyway. 365 DAYS OF GRATITUDE EACH DAY I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING IN MY LIFE FOR WHICH I'M GRATEFUL FOR.

24.01.2022 Saturday I had a first aid course and forgot my phone, so I had a total phone free day, hence no photographs from Saturday. Even though there was lots to be grateful for including catching up with a friend. I'm most grateful for a phone free day. 365 DAYS OF GRATITUDE EACH DAY I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING IN MY LIFE FOR WHICH I'M GRATEFUL FOR.

22.01.2022 One of the things which I noticed of my husband when we were dating was the great relationship he had with his mother. Something which showed great respect and love for the women in his life .... Today we visited his Mum in her residential care facility, she has dementia, an insidious disease which robs the person of their ptesent and future, and family of the person they love, her is rapidly advancing. Most recently in photographs she has looked vacant, Today's show the l...ove of once upon a time. Whilst Mum would have forgotten about our visit 5 minutes after we'd gone, we knew we'd been. Although, we know that Mum is no longer there and what's there is just a shell of the former person, it's hard no to look for glimpses of the personality who once was. I'm grateful to have known my mother in law for her humour, fierceness, feistyness, kindness , acceptance and generosity of spirit.

21.01.2022 Today is my husband's birthday, I'm grateful to have spent a wonderful day with him. Each day is special and we live each day in the present moment always appreciating what we're have.. this is not the first marriage for either of us, so we've learnt some of the pitfalls, each day we give 100% of what we have to give. We started with morning tea at table 33 followed by lunch at table 44, where our meal tallied to $66.60 If you're a follower of numerology you'll know thes...e are all auspicious numbers. 365 DAYS OF GRATITUDE EACH DAY I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING IN MY LIFE FOR WHICH I'M GRATEFUL FOR.

18.01.2022 Mental health first aid training today, certified for another 3 years, a solid 6 hours of training, although it didn't trigger me, it certainly brought back some intense memories. Today was my late finish and I could easily have moved from my office chair to the lounge. Instead I decided on a short walk which grew in distance as I took in the brisk fresh air and the amazing fragrance of jasmine in bloom.

16.01.2022 I'm grateful for my local library membership and their online app, "Libby" where not only can you read a virtual book online, they also have audiobooks, so they're read to you. Today I finished these two great books while I tidied my craft room and organised my next few projects I was able to get a start on the shorts and I will have a start on the cropped top. I'm making a few changes- cotton yarn which won't be as chunky. The shorts will be finished in no time, waistband ...and heming to go. 365 DAYS OF GRATITUDE EACH DAY I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING IN MY LIFE FOR WHICH I'M GRATEFUL FOR.

14.01.2022 "The devil wears Prada" "you know what I'll call you now" he said jokingly. "You aren't the first and I'd say you probably won't be the last I responded" and we both laughed. rewind a while... ... As I left the sales counter it made my day as I overheard "That woman looked so attractive, those glasses looked terrific, they really lifted her face and accentuated her eyes" added such a bounce to my step, whilst it's wonderful to be given a compliment, it's so nice to overhear something so uplifting. All jokes and compliments aside, I'm so grateful for my sight, something I certainly don't take for granted. Once I had 20 : 20 vision, now I need a little help and the gift of sight is not lost on me. There was a time I would not have thought to spoil myself on designer brand glasses and whilst that was not the reason I chose them, it's no longer something I feel I need to apologise for. I chose these glasses for the great fit and how the colours worked for me. It just so happened these are Prada. Given that my next eye check is not for 2 years these glasses will be an extension of me and my appearance for the next 2 years at least. Do you spoil yourself or is there some history or generational trauma which stops or are you of the generation or time which feels entitled to pleasing yourself? 365 DAYS OF GRATITUDE EACH DAY I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING IN MY LIFE FOR WHICH I'M GRATEFUL FOR.

14.01.2022 How do you photograph your life? We photograph things and moments in time which hold memories for that moment in time with context for the photographer and maybe the people in the picture, or relatives and friends. The viewer and each of us bring our own prejudices and history to how we observe. The photo invokes emotion and memories differently for each of individually, for some we are simply voyuers looking into another life, for others there are triggers for events and me...mories Some days I struggle with what to post, not because I have nothing to be grateful for, because I have so much and it's so hard to choose. I have so much in my life to be grateful for and I am acutely aware of that every day. Studies show gratitude breeds contentment, happiness, peace and acceptance. My life has had it's fair share of challenges, struggles, frustration, abuse and heartache. It has also had and still has great love, kindness, accomplishment, food, laughter, people, lessons and joy. In my language, in my world food does not simply mean nutritional sustenance, it also means gatherings of family and friends, it means sharing, acceptance, respect and belonging. In our porch hangs a plaque "if you love the life you live, you will live a life of love." Today's gratitude is for my wonderful life and for love. What about you, are you able to find one thing to be grateful for today? Tell me, share, what is it? It could simply be for a hot cup of tea 365 DAYS OF GRATITUDE EACH DAY I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING IN MY LIFE FOR WHICH I'M GRATEFUL FOR.

13.01.2022 Which kitchen appliances do you love? I have a few, some I use infrequently others more often. We're not a fan of the microwave, it's more of a convenience for quick work lunches when we're short on time. What we do love about it is that's it's also a grill and convection oven, so perfect for baking 4 cookies for supper. The airfryer is perfect at removing all that extra fat from our diet.. nothing beats home made hot chips /fries for dinner .. and veggie chips. There go...es the timer our cookies are ready ... its friday night and we're ready to start Midsommer murders after NCIS grateful the weekend is here. 365 DAYS OF GRATITUDE EACH DAY I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING IN MY LIFE FOR WHICH I'M GRATEFUL FOR.

12.01.2022 Sunday, yesterday, I made time to spend time in the garden. Even though there's a myriad of bromeliads of all sizes (which we will sell, so if you're in Brisbane and would like some, get in touch) there are many other plants, herbs and the makings of a terrific veggie garden. Can't wait to finish the unpacking so I can get started on shaping the gardens. The gardens host many frangipani trees, Iwas so excited to discover the original pure white in flower. The photos are ...from the back yard, there are gardens in the front too, with a mishmash of assorted varieties of plants and 5 massive palms which frame the property. Also something I'd be happy to have moved to a different home. Putting my hands in the soil really grounds me, and connects to earth energy, what about you? 365 DAYS OF GRATITUDE EACH DAY I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING IN MY LIFE FOR WHICH I'M GRATEFUL FOR.

12.01.2022 Today my gratitude is for something for my husband. Our old big screen TV was a casualty of our house move - the screen was actress cracked in several places. The removalist was insured so we didn't have to bear the full cost of a new TV and my husband loves his big screen. @sonyaustralia @sony @sonytvofficial @sonybravia... @sonyselect 365 DAYS OF GRATITUDE EACH DAY I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING IN MY LIFE FOR WHICH I'M GRATEFUL FOR.

02.01.2022 And just like that.... A new exclusion on my insurance for yoga and meditation, etc ... Listed Human Disease Exclusion (Applicable to Policy Sections 1, 2 and 3) We shall not provide indemnity under this Policy in respect of any actual or alleged liability directly or indirectly arising out of, related to, or in connection with a Listed Human Disease or any directly or indirectly related condition or threat or fear thereof (whether actual or perceived).... Listed Human Disease shall mean: any disease identified or listed at any time as a human disease under the Biosecurity Act 2015 (Cth) or its current equivalent, as amended or replaced from time to time, or any disease identified or listed in a state of emergency, public health emergency or pandemic declared by any governmental authority or identified by the World Health Organisation or its current equivalent as amended or replaced regardless of when the disease is so listed or identified. Subject otherwise to all other terms, Conditions, Exclusions and limitations of this insurance..... I'm not totally surprised, though it's now a very broad exclusion. The onus is really on seriously considering options and the viability of keeping a business... I'd be interested in your thoughts and encounters....

01.01.2022 "Is there a glass I can use for wine?" "They're all here in the cupboard" "Any one in particular?" "Any one you like." "but they're all good.... "we don't have good here, everything is to be used" Do you have things in your house or your life which you keep for "good" Where you brought up with that concept? Are you old enough to remember when this was really a thing. We made the conscious decision that nothing is left for good and we use everything. A comment on yesterday's gratitude post reminded me about the story of things being left for good, cause they're too good for every day use. I have quite the collection of tea cups some dating back to gifts given me in the 80's... cups and dinner sets kept for some strange reason... Now we live in the moment and use everything we own. Every day is special and a day to be grateful for. Some day, if you visit, you'll have tea or coffee in a china cup and saucer.. because each day is special and should be celebrated. 365 DAYS OF GRATITUDE EACH DAY I'LL SHOW YOU SOMETHING IN MY LIFE FOR WHICH I'M GRATEFUL FOR.

01.01.2022 So many changes in the last 24 hours. Horrific scenes in the USA. Where a narcissist is inciting violence for his own end. How do I know he's a narcissist? I lived with one and have learned how to recognize one. I'm grateful I have grown through that episode of my life. I'm glad to not be living in a society where this level of violence is tolerated.
