Happy Wednesday everyone! I hope you are enjoying these weekly posts about gratitude. I really can’t express enough how much they help me maintain a positive attitude during stressful times. I’m not saying this is a  cure-all, but it definitely can reframe your thinking! Here is my recap from last week:
1. M is currently on a temporary job assignment that he is really enjoying. They have still not asked for permanency, but they did ask him to stay awhile and sent others home.
2. I finally received some baby spoons and forks I ordered because I was unable to find the kind I wanted here. It has made such a big difference in helping our little monster eat with utensils. He is so excited!
3. One of the ladies in a local group I recently joined messaged me on Facebook and ended up bringing her two little boys over on Friday. We walked along the Mosel and took the kids to the two different playgrounds here. It was so lovely to have some adult conversation and so nice of her to reach out to me.
4. Sons of Anarchy. Do I need to say anymore?
5. It’s been raining ALOT. I can’t express how much I LOVE THE RAIN! This alone makes me happy; sleepy sometimes, but happy!
I hope you all had a great week last week and that this one is also going well. I love to hear your thanks for the week! Please share with me and it can be both the good and the bad! Looking forward to hearing from you!
We have had rain too and I also am so happy about it!
I can’t help but love it….it’s the dessert girl inside me!
Thanks for stopping by!
I’m sick of the rain… and the cold. Just goes to show we are all different.
Today I am grateful that I was able to eat breakfast without too much discomfort.
I’d say you are in the majority. I just happen to be in the minority in which I’m not summer’s biggest fan. Why? Are you ill?
I had two wisdom teeth removed last week. Stitches come out today…
Oh! Yuck! Hope you’re feeling better. I bet you’re relieved to have the stitches out.
Oh I am! I’m counting down the hours until they come out (3 and a half to go). The pain is pretty much gone now, it’s just really uncomfortable to swallow, but I hope that will get better once the stitches are gone.
I miss the rain! The sound, the smell, everything!
I bet you do!
I love this link up! & I love reading what others are thankful for
Everything you listed seems to be wonderful! I haven’t really learned to love the rain yet, but I’ve grown to tolerate it. Maybe one day I’ll learn to be at peace with it haha 
I think it’s a great link up also! We could all use more positivity in our lives!
Yes, yes, yes to Sons of Anarchy! I am glad the rain has brought on boot and scarf weather, but I’m ready to see some blue sky for a day or two.
It looks like you should get your wish soon! Sunshine is coming soon
Oh you LOVE the rain
that is always good here in Germany! It sometimes takes the pressure of of having to go outside (like when the sun is out around here lol) but it’s also lovely to just sometimes take a walk in the rain 
So good to be alive 
Happy Wednesday Deanna!
Are you in Germany as well? I checked out your blog, but then was interrupted by a little monster.
I like to walk in the rain too, but it is usually too cold here! Happy Thursday Lisa!
I’m so glad you’re still enjoying this linkup and I love popping over to see what your five things are going to be! That’s really cool about the playdate meetup!
Thanks Erika! It was very nice about the playdate! Thanks again for the lovely acknowledgement on your blog.

LMAO. Sara I think you win for the most hilarious comment I’ve ever received. And I feel the same.
