A Daily Gratitude practice changes the brain and outlook on live. Its transformational and for that im greatful
Waking up this morning and remembering all the good things I have done so far in this life. Speaking with the VA and Nebraska Brain Injury Association today. Keeping my eyes on all the available help - because it changes. Grateful that they do a lot for a lot of people and not absorbing that they wonāt help me. Just two more weeks for my kiddo to be in college. I did want to cry when he sent a picture of his empty studio. I cannot cry. I choose to be grateful that issues could be far worse. Spent some time cleaning the toilet, while gross, I have tiny alone time this morning. YOU. ME. This thread. My meetings. My choices.
Iām grateful for the daily loud ārattlyā exhale of Daisyās purr in the morning when she is so happy to see me alone without dogs.
Iām grateful for small breed dog zoomies. I thought only cats had that market cornered. Iām grateful for my 12 and 14 pound little monsters and they both get zoomies!
Iām grateful Iām confident now in handling my 2 little monsters. And when Jojo is so stressed out on his walk I just turn around and go home and get a different dog. Andy.
Iām grateful wifey can walk. Surgery was on her thumb and all went well. Sheās in much pain but itās so much better all around that she can walk.
Iām grateful I get on auto pilot around here, just like the lunch or after bar rush at Katzās, and I am fully capable of taking care of everything. Iām grateful itās my codependent slice of heaven and it all feels good and successful. Iām especially grateful I donāt reward myself by getting liquored up when everyone is in bed.
Iām grateful I can stick Alice today and do her subcutaneous fluids.
Iām grateful for peace and quiet, and coffee and meditation music with gratitude and my Courage to Change. All before feeding the dogs. Iām grateful they are resting on the couch. Theyāre fine. Iām grateful Iām in charge. Of at least that currently
Cherry picked from todayās Courage To Change. Because I feel sharing, sharing anywhere, is healing
One of the most useful tools has been sharing in meetings and with members of the fellowship. When I put my experiences into words, they seem more real and I am less likely to push them aside. As a result, I can often face problems when they are still only slight irritations and deal with them before they grow and take over. Today I am not so interested in high drama; Iād rather have a real life.
Just going to extend my gratitude to a potential disability lawyer called to see if I had gotten my postponement. I called SSA and they didnāt even see that I had submitted that request. SOOOO - that might help.
My washing machine, dryer, dishwasher, vacuumer and mopping robot are doing what they are supposed to do.
My laptop, tablet and TV are doing what they are supposed to do.
My fridge, oven and espresso machine are doing what they are supposed to do.
My hairdryer, flattening iron and curler are doing what they are supposed to do.
My IPL laser is doing what itās supposed to do.
My medication is doing what itās supposed to do.
My rowing machine is doing what itās supposed to do.
My teenage daughter isnāt doing what sheās supposed to do. And this is the thing Iām probably most grateful for today. Love her uniqueness so very much.
