Sunday gratitude.
I’m grateful I was up early. Chill morning, beautiful sunrise never gets old. Waking up sober never gets old. Waking up not overeaten never gets old. I’m grateful Yesterday ME took good care of herself and didn’t borrow from tomorrow
I’m grateful I took pictures in the morning, if I don’t fall asleep I will post some on the fitting threads. I’m grateful I was grateful, happy, serene and full of energy this morning. After a crappy night and nightmares. Once they will kill me. Or a miracle happens and they vanish. I’m grateful this was one of the things I turned over to God at today’s service. I’m grateful for service on TV.
I’m grateful this round of preserving produce is done. I’m grateful for two dozens heaven in glasses, the dishwasher and funny cats. Missi played with a Jalapeno all day. And stole my teabags. I’m grateful the youngsters enjoyed the beautiful weather on the balcony while the old boy slept on the couch.
I’m grateful I cooked healthy today and have enough for tomorrow and 2 portions to freeze. The joy of not sweating and airing the house after cooking is unbeatable.
I’m grateful the ex fetched another trailer full of clinker today. I’m grateful I did not help him. I was busy in the kitchen and rested after lunch. I’m grateful I told him my opinion about working physically when he had fever the last 2 days and has a cold. And left it there. No overcaring, no nagging he should know better with his health condition. Simply kept my mouth shut, wished him a speedy recovery and worked on letting go. Not my business, not my health, not my decisions, nothing I can control or change. I’m grateful I fell asleep over breath meditating about it. Progress, not perfection.
I’m grateful for two calls with friends. It was nice catching up and chatting.
I’m grateful I take good care of Tomorrow ME. I’ll be happy to find the kitchen in an ok post-cooking-all-day state, the last charge of jars sterilized and ready to be stored, the dishwasher ready for the next loads, clean space to make breakfast, dry laundry to put away, a post it of additional morning chores. I do what I can and this is enough.
I’m grateful for silence, the noises of modern amenities working, for the comfy cloths I wear, for purring around me, for being at home all day, for hot showers, for finding confidence when I do my best. What will be will be, I can handle it as long as my mind is open and I focus on the things I can do and change. I’m grateful I’m good at making decisions. I’m grateful I’m only responsible for my life. I’m grateful days like today are learning and practicing days.
I’m grateful I’ll put my sober head on a pillow soon. ODAAT
