Today, I am grateful, so very, very grateful for this site and the people who show up here.

Today I am grateful that I had a very sweet helper yesterday, and my hubby and I and that helper got a lot of deep cleaning done. Though I fear the spiders weren't too grateful when we sucked up their webs.

Today I am grateful that though I didn't sleep well last night, I have an hour later in my day for a nap that I already know will be delicious.

Today I am grateful that yesterday I actually made more and more decisions on what to keep and what to get rid of....and I didn't die from the emotions.

Grateful to have had parents who valued family closely so I could grow up feeling part of them all. Miss them.

--for living in the amazing time I have in history.

Today, I am grateful for Sunday newspapers and lazy days,

Today I am grateful for . . .

*** a working vehicle

*** a brain that, although it doesn't do everything I might want it to do, still works as well as it does

*** for yummy spaghetti sauce and the ability to make it.

Today I am grateful I was reminded to post things I am grateful for.

Grateful: Only 10 more days with this dog.

that it is sunny out

that I am becoming more aware of reasons I procrastinate

that Roxie survived heart attack

that Tillie was out and about, reminded me to do the same soon

that I have everything I need

I am grateful...

that the bird Scooter caught was able to get over the shock and I was eventually able to take her outside where she flew out of my hands and back into the trees.

That after so many months away, Nathan was free to come spend the whole day with me and we went visiting people together.

That I am still able to do so many of the things that I want to do, even if I do do them slower than when I was younger. 😀

Today I am grateful for

*** a roof over my head

*** food in the pantry

*** all the supportive people on this website.

(So glad you have joined us, whew!)

Today, I am grateful:

1) That such insightful people, who are both real and kind, post on these boards regularly. I am very much supported, even though I have never met anyone in person.

2. That just by reading Buried in Treasures and doing some of the exercises I've found such relief at being "home" with folks who have many of the same issues I have.

3. That today I have no big obligations, and can spend time working on both letting go of "stuff" and revising my novel.

4. That tomorrow I have a cleaning professional coming in for one day, and that we will work together.

5. That I have a hubby who is on board with this.

Thank you so very much for being here.

I am grateful to read my last post and realize I'm still alive and have more life to live;

--to have the patience to try to properly learn to care for myself, finally!

Today I am grateful for sunshine and no wind

This site is a safe place to have social interactions with people I enjoy

I learn new things every day from your posts

When I cut all the lilacs back the dying flowers still smelled beautiful today

I am beginning to see the beauty of empty spaces.

Mar, I LOVE your #3 gratitude ~ your nerves have not exploded ~ hahaha!!! I need to be grateful for that in myself too!

the tininess of activities going on all around us that we are not aware of

Today I am grateful:
1. To meet new people on the message boards just beginning this journey. It makes me reflect on where i was when I began facing this head on and the progress I have made over the past few months with the help of Tillie, Diane, Dianne, Karl, Dave, Cory, Sheryl, LR, Violet, and MayMay. If I have left anyone out, please know it was not intentional. You are all important to me.
2. My big pot of red geranium, white cascading petunias, dark blue lobelia, spiky plant, and sweet potato vine that greets me on the porch when I come home.
3. My new ability to take these headachy days in stride and that I am learning to accomplish what I can and not beat myself up for what doesn't get done. This is a hard lesson to learn for someone who has developed the life long habits of perfectionism and over achievement. I am learning to adapt to my own circadian rhythms; not to fight them. This will bring me balance and shalom (a sense of peace and wholeness).

Grateful for:

1) Making progress a little in my schoolwork
2) The help of God that keeps me going
3) My nerves have not exploded! LOL 🙂

Today I am grateful that I completed my CPR renewal and she was a good teacher.

That I was able to let go of 21 pieces of clothing that I still like.
