Right now I am most grateful for:
- my presence of mind
- 10 wonderful years with my husband
- fall weather
- my inner faith, unshakable even by me
- the blue mountains of jamaica and their excellent coffee beans
- corduroys
- possibility
- this forum
- this thread
- that i'm not alone, irrespective of the fact that i would also not wish this condition on anyone
Thank you
