I am so grateful. I have so much to thank Hashem for. I have this whatsup group but I don't feel it's anonymous enough. And I would like to thank Hashem publicly too!!

I am so grateful to Hashem that with hard work on myself I'm able to approach my finances with only little anxiety. I am a single mum and trying to get a mortgage which is a huge thing in its own right. Never mind dealing with day to day finances.
I will thank again publicly when I managed to get it which will only be with Hashems kindness of course because it doesn't look so simple with my small income.

I thank Hashem for my health and will thank again publicly for the outcome of my blood test.

I thank Hashem that I am able to sell my car in order to get a smaller one.

I thank Hashem for my children and that they are happy.

I’m grateful to Hashem for allowing me to feel the joy of being a mother. It is truly the greatest happiness for me, and nothing measures close to it.

I am grateful that He opens my eyes to see His hand in every day life and I daven that I should always be able to see this, even through the hard times.

I like to thank Hashem for all the little things. Of course I'm grateful for the big things: my family, my health, my job, the State of Israel and so on, but I really do briefly say "thank You and I hope this isn't my sachar in olam hazeh so that I can be punished in olam haba" in my mind whenever...

--the elevator is right on my floor when I get there;
--I get to the bus stop two minutes before the bus that runs only three times an hour;
--I get a seat on said bus;
--eggs go on sale just as I'm running out of them;
--eggs are on sale, there are only two cartons left and I get them;
--a dental checkup requires only a cleaning and no restoration work;

you get the idea.

To my dear father in heavon.
I pen you a note so small
Of immense gratitude we keeps me up tall
Gotten covid a week ago
The test positive it did show
Weak, heart pain and tired I did feel
Nausea, no taste and smell oh how I did miss a meal
But bh the weak flew
I was able to get up walk, cook, chat and daven. Activities I managed far from few
Of course slower and less complete
But covid I do have lets not cheat
And RBSH for you I did a favour today was the day
Which I didnot fast. I ate and drank. You said I may
I prayed for the final geula, beauty complete serene
A sight we cry for something so serene
And tatte thank you that I have no energy for a shower even after 9 long days
Its also Hashem your proper wsys
Thank you Hashem I have no energy but to sleep
And my dirty washing fills up so deep
Thank you Hashem my 7 days are over so for shabbot I can sleep out
And relax while my needs are taken about
You provide so much light even in the times so dark and black
Our choice to choose what we feel is a lack
Youre the best. I continue to daven always to see it
And only better blessings to shout your praise. Oh tutte for that let me be fit

Thank you Hashem for everything- - - -
Right now I’m especially grateful to Hashem that so far we’re home & not in the hospital despite dc fever and that means that fever is not the biggest enemy anymore like it was was for years. That’s a reason to celebrate 🎉

Thank you hashem for:
Wonderful Husand
Beautiful children and they joy they bring!
For dhs job
For our house, for the heating/ac for the privacy peace and serenity this house and neighborhood has provided.
Thank you for nudging us to end up here! Had we had more money, we would have bought somewhere else and we wouldn't have had what we have now.
Thank you hashem for such kind sweet neighbors with such outstanding middos. And thank you for those neighbors who aren't so kind, I know now to appreciate my good neighbors more, and even more, to appreciate myself!

Thank you hashem for creating me a Jew, and for putting me in the family that you did so I got to grow up and live as a frum jew!

Thank you hashem for coffee, and thank you hashem for my sweater (im cold when I fast. And this sweater is close to 20 years old... still from sleepaway camp as a preteen. Lol!)

Thank you for showing me you are here with me in those little but meaningful ways.
Like finding exact change, make carpool work out so easily, and the convenience of garage door openers!!!!
Thank you hashem for pools! And the ability to pay for it, and to swim!
I can go on and on.
But mainly, thank you hashem for taking such good care of me. For giving me what I need all the time and a also sometimes what I want.
Oftentimes, when things are difficult, I wonder how people who don't have You survive and live their lives. Thank you for being my ROCK.
