Today I’m grateful I did all the morning chores and headed off downtown to check heating at all my places. It’s still strange and overwhelming that my late mum’s house is empty and I’m the only one left to take care. I’m grateful everything is ok, all houses are tempered as we are expecting below zero all day and double digits at night for the next week.
I’m grateful for my reliable car.
I’m grateful I texted a friend where I was and when I was home safe again. It’s such a gift to have caring people who will act when you don’t check in. I cried because this was something my ex was always reliable. He called me and worried when I was unexpectedly not showing up or calling. I’m grateful I rarely forgot to call, I miss this part of his heartfelt caring on days like today.
I’m grateful I stocked up on firewood. I’m grateful for a warm and cozy house.
I’m grateful for the Advent arrangement and the christmas decoration I already put up Holiday decorations 2023 - #77 by erntedank It is so beautiful to sit in silence when it gets from bright sunshine into darkness and watch it. I’m grateful the house is mostly neat and tidy. It brings peace to my soul.
I’m grateful for my hillarious cats. They are adorable fluffballs with temper and attitude. I love them to pieces.
I’m grateful I visited my friend at the hospital. We took a nice walk and visited the hospital church. It was wunderful to hear her sing in the empty church. I felt deeply touched. I’m grateful I don’t break down anymore when something touches me deeply. I’m grateful I can let go. Most times.
I’m grateful it’s Advent and I wish everyone including myself a peaceful time. Even my ex. ODAAT
