Daily Gratitude List

I am grateful for
Twinkly stars on nighttime walks
The sleepy pupper on my lap
A whole Saturday to do as I please
A bag full of library books
This honest and amazing community
Day 126

I am grateful for the good sleep I had, for the courage to feel my sadness now without numbing it, for the full shelves in the shops this morning, for the hugs I received yesterday and most of all for all the encouraging posts here I can read every day. Thank you so much, I am grateful that you all are living and here :heart:

Grateful for another morning. I’m not hungover. I’m sober. I got up at an early reasonable time. I got my pets all around me, a fire in the fireplace and my grandmothers quilt and Benson on my lap.
Grateful I got a lot of my Christmas shopping done.
Grateful my Zoom call with my doctor is over. I hate Zoom calls. But it wasn’t so bad I guess.
I’m grateful that even though my doc didn’t have my blood work. The whole reason for the call :grimacing:. I took it in stride. He has it but “the system is down.” Kind of thing. He’ll DM me in the app next week. I usually would have been all pissed off.
Grateful for the calm demeanor I seem to have now.
I’m grateful I enjoy all my Christmas decorations.
I’m grateful I got 2 dogs sleeping; one on me and the other next to me.
I’m grateful for my music and all my cool playlists.
I’m grateful I got to the post office yesterday and again calmly waited in the long line to mail some Christmas shit.
I’m grateful the critter dude came by yesterday and said “we got him!” A great big rat bastard up under the house by where our tub is where we were hearing the scratching sounds.
I’m grateful I can pay people to go down under our house into the crawl space.
Also grateful he said it was damp down there but no standing water anywhere. Which has been an issue since we moved in.
I’m grateful for all the healthcare workers that face all this COVID death ever day :pray:t2::pray:t2:
:pray:t2::heart:

I’m grateful for a Saturday morning and the chance to catch up on some sleep (I suck at sleeping in) or at least have a slower morning with my coffee…

I’m grateful for a full day ahead of me to get ready to leave tomorrow for a longggg drive to Mom’s…

I’m grateful I’m not stressed about all I have to do before I go. Even when I do start to think about it all, I don’t automatically think a drink “to take the edge off” will help! I know there’s a far better way…

This sounds goofy - but I was thinking yesterday that I’m grateful for the wrinkles (they’re coming!) on my face. I like the age I am. I’m not proud of all of my actions, of time wasted, but I like where I am right now in my life - and these 159 days - and the wrinkles seem like good proof of that. Mostly they are smile lines :wink:

I’m grateful for the trails around here and that the dog girl and I are planning a special saturday walk after I tackle this list…

I’m grateful for all of you, sharing your gratitude too.

I’m grateful for another day. :orange_heart:

EDIT: after i tackle my to do list! not gratitude list :laughing:

I’m grateful for the stretch of mild weather we’re having right now here - not typical, but enjoyable to walk the dog girl in the morning sunrise…

I’m grateful I have a beautiful sunshine-y day ahead of me to drive some 850km to where my Mom lives, and brand new winter tires, cuz after all it is winter…

I’m grateful for the music that I will listen to all the way there, and that the dog girl doesn’t mind my singing voice (at least, she hasn’t complained!)…

I’m so grateful for the support of TS. I’m grateful for my pals in real life, yes, but this place makes me feel so understood and supported…

I’m grateful for another day. :orange_heart:

I was wondering what you were going to do with the dog girl. I’m so happy she can accompany you to visit mom.

What is your dog girls name?

My dog girl. Minnie won’t let us play music in the car. It upsets her.

LOL! and scrubbing you-know-what out of the treads of high-end running shoe soles (for me it’s hiking shoe soles) makes for a shitty day indeed!

Ok, you are all @anon74766472, @I.cant.We.can, and @Dazercat making me laugh way too hard and not get my car packed up! But let it be said that I’m just grateful that you have got my day off to such a smiling start. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :relaxed: :pray:
