Wednesday gratitude.
Today I’m grateful for relief. The overhaul of my townhouse is set on track :folded_hands: I feel like a mountain dropped off my shoulders. I am grateful for professionals who know their job and are reliable.

I’m grateful I rested a lot today, I was exhausted.

I’m grateful for dogsnuggles and catpurrs.

I’m grateful for my reliable car, for being home, for tea and biscuits, a blankie and series.
I’m grateful for my life as it is.

Almost forgot to come in here!
Grateful:
I woke up in a good mood with motivation and hope. It got tipped - however, it reminds me how much better it is when I am more myself.
Today I shared my situation and said, “I know myself. I will not fall for this.” I got so many responses about how THEY know me and I shouldn’t even listen to it. AND yes, that group (and this group) know me far better than they do.
Knowing that life matters, things happen - good and bad - and it’s temporary, which is one reason being present matters so much.

Grateful that I took a break from typing this and shared in my meeting about what I think is beautiful. I taught my kidlets to always share a beautiful/hopeful thing when they had a complaint about something.

Grateful I know I am a good person and I am lucky I know good people.

You. Here. Me.
