Today I am grateful for the beautiful sunrise. I am grateful for early morning blissful dog cuddles. I am grateful it’s not too cold outside today. I am grateful I have the whole day ahead of me to craft however I see fit, including managing my emotions, and my feelings around others. I am grateful it’s Christmas time and the holidays, for although it brings some added stress, it also brings much added joy and focus on family, love, and togetherness, which is a good reminder we all need. I am super grateful for the $2500 donation we received yesterday, wow, thank you!

Today is Colorado Gives day https://www.coloradogives.org/organization/Resqranch

It’s a special day for non-profits, because for each monthly donation that is made, they will match it, doubling the impact of your gift. Won’t you please consider a monthly donation to the ResqRanch in 2026? Even $5 will be $10 for us, and every little bit helps to pay for hay, medications, blankets, and all the other things these horses need. They have no choice in who they ended up with, or even if they would have ended up at the slaughter house. They are innocent creatures, counting on us, to give them the best life we can, especially for all they do to fulfill us.

​Thank you on this day, and everyday, for your kindness, gifts, and support. We appreciate you all, Animal Loving Angels. So be kind to yourself today, know you are just in the right place, at the right time, and all is as it should be. Have the best day ever, I am grateful for you!
