Quality time yesterday with my 15 yr old, we went and played a few games of pool, though I wasn’t too shabby he did whoop my butt!! Seeing him have fun was beautiful. With everything he has going on (ASD,CFS) I’m truly blessed at having such an inspirational son
Being able to take my other son to view a car today, fingers crossed it’ll be good enough to purchase and if not, that’s fine too, we’ll continue the search
The pain in my bicep easing, must’ve pulled something at the gym but it’s feeling better today

The ability to take part in TMS even though insurance may not cover it. They said my history of bulimia and alcohol use disorder precludes me from coverage for this therapeutic modality, even though TMS is used to treat both of those diagnoses. But the TMS people said the company will cover my treatment down to the same cost.
Trashy TV shows to keep me lighthearted
A husband who wants to be active doing things, where my nature is to stay home and do nothing. I appreciate him pushing me.

I’m grateful that I get “Good Morning” texts from people, it’s something simple that makes a huge impact.
I’m grateful I live in a safe town, away from the city. I’m grateful that I don’t have to worry about any of the news that comes out of there.
