Good Stuff. I appreciate you very much. Read yesterday the more grateful you are the more to be grateful will come. Gratitude does work to lessen anxiety and calms the storms. I have proven this fact over and over since Sober.

Thank you dear friend :pray::hugs:
I certainly will keep you updated.

I’m grateful I have this monday to prepare some additional things I thought of yesterday evening and to stock up on firewood what I used up in the last days.
I’m grateful my neighbour will take care of the cats.
I’m grateful I have to get up now because the cat shenanigans are too wild. It’s cold, they are hungry, turning the house upside down playing and the oldtimer yodels. The first textmessages arrive. Yep, it’s monday morning :blush::dancer::four_leaf_clover: I’m grateful for monday morning.

@Dazercat Your sober party sounds great! All folks sober is so nice to socialize and have quality talks & fun :+1::pray:

Some early monday gratitude as I’ll attend a zoom workshop in the evening.

Today I’m grateful for a lot :pray:

  • Stocked up firewood. Boy oh boy do I need firewood in these temperatures. I completely forgot how it is when the days stay below zero. I hope the cold kills lots of critters and snails.
  • My green wonderwuzzi. Without this vehicle I could not accomplish 90 % of what I do nowadays.
  • My lawyer called and I really hope he got the message to bulldoze this annoying local authority.
  • Catfood is on the kitchen desk, dry food is filled up, the wuzzi is gased up and covered with its canvas, a fresh box of kindling is in the carport
  • I stored away some stuff
  • Grateful that I took time to journal
  • Tea, hot showers, fire in the kitchen stove, a blankie to cuddle up, snorring cats
  • Checked the household for anything I could arrange better to help myself recovering and not being able to use my right hand. Didn’t find anything. I guess I’m ready for surgery check-in tomorrow morning :+1: (pun intended as my right thumb needs surgical intervention :wink::smile:)
  • Calling it a day mid afternoon and relaxing on the couch
  • I’m up to date with bills, mail, chores & work. This feels so … adult :face_with_hand_over_mouth:
  • Grateful for humor, smiles & laughter
  • HALT It helps me through everything in life
  • White Frost. The landscape looks so beautiful. I walked around today and enjoyed the outlook and the silence that comes with dense fog. Balm on my winter-needy soul. Thanks to the warm coat and warm boots.

I guess I need food and a nap. I’ll be back for after surgery gratitude tomorrow if I can type. Good monday vibes. ODAAT
