Three things for which I'm grateful today [Please check my sentences and feel free to rewrite the part that you feel it's unnatural. Thx!!] 1. I'm grateful that I can wake up in the morning even though I had some tiring dreams. 2. I did some banking after I got up, just like some millionaires(' morning routine). And I found...Wow! Am I a milli...or is it the time to pay my tuition fee? Well, I'm grateful that I'm able to pay the fee before the due date. 3. Sometimes, I just run out of stems. But it's fine to not get too sentimental on a normal working day, isn't it? I'm grateful that I feel much better only by roughly writing my gratitude down.

1. I'm grateful that I can wake up in the morning even though I had some tiring dreams.

Grammatically it is fine but I find the meaning a little hard to understand. After sleep we always wake up so why be grateful? you might never wake up? or you might sleep in too late? or you didn't like the dreams?

How about-
I was grateful for not not oversleeping...
My dreams were unpleasant so I was grateful to wake up and realise they were just dreams

I think I would have used 'pleased to wake up'. I would use Grateful more if I owe something to someone.


2. I did some banking after I got up, just like some millionaires(' morning routine). And I found...Wow! Am I a milli...or is it the time to pay my tuition fee? Well, I'm grateful that I'm able to pay the fee before the due date.
3. Sometimes, I just run out of stems*?. But it's fine to not get too sentimental on a normal working day, isn't it? I'm grateful that I feel much better only by roughly writing my gratitude down.

stems? The usual expession is - run out of steam -like a steam train.
