What are you grateful for today? #2

Staying true to my feelings

Though it was a warm one I finally got the low mawned...laked some reaves as well!

Overall a fine day really...aside from the apparent dehydration related dyslexia...

Very grateful for my burst of energy and realized sense of responsibility.

.. that it's Friday!!!!!!!!

Music...

I'm grateful for a nice day.

It is only saturday.

Catching up with my sister.

My new computer arrived and it's a significant upgrade from what I had before. It's fast enough that I can now allow PsychCentral to show ads--with my last computer, browsers would crash when websites tried to load ads. It's also allowing me to get back to gaming,which I love, but my depression kept me from doing for 5 or 6 years.

Yesterday, I was grateful for Savasana in yoga class.
Today I'm grateful to be going back on antidepressants.

I am very grateful to have married a wonderful guy who loves me despite our ups and downs, we came through stronger. VERY grateful.

not much right now...

I am grateful for FINALLY being allowed to work after four months adjusting to life in America and waiting for the government to get their butts in gear

My dog. Always my dog.

I'm grateful for The Big Bang Theory for never getting tired and always making me laugh.

Grateful to see my sister today.

I am grateful to my loved ones for helping me when I need it most. I am grateful to have begun University so well.

I am grateful a client who had been missing for some time turned up at our group today - it was great to see him back.

I am grateful that I am getting interviews, at least. That's good.

I blog and on my blog I blog about what I am grateful for every day of my life. I began on March 12, 2013. It has been life-changing for me because it helps me focus on what I do have and not what I don't.

Today, Tuesday, September 26, 2017, I am grateful for being strong enough to fully accept the fact that I have been officially diagnosed with Complex PTSD. Years ago, when I was finding out about the health problems I had that led to being disabled, I would withdraw. Every time I went to the doctor, I would be told about more health problems I had. I stopped going for a long time. My life was very lonely then. I had friends, but I didn't feel real support from anyone.

Now, today, I do. I feel surrounded by real and genuine friends. Happily, we are part of each other's lives. That gives me the strength and self-respect I need to hold my head high and keep moving forward.

I am grateful the observation I had in my voluntary role today went well.

I catastrophizing today about nothing at all. I am going to bed and starting over. Made breakfast. Not worrying about making everyone lunch.

I am grateful for the chance to love again..

Today, September 27, 2017, I am grateful for gaining a better understanding of how monstrous my upbringing was and how it impacted my life. It was impossible for me to have turned out any other way than I did. I was on the fast track to alcoholism and addiction from the very second my parents conceived me.

This is one of the reasons I am so grateful to have been born in the States. I cannot help but wonder that if I had been born elsewhere, could I have survived? How many others are there like me who didn't?

I do have much to be grateful for. I am alive and I work hard to make my life better as best I can, every single day.

Today I'm grateful for breaded eggplant cutlets with sauce for dinner. They were amazing. I'm also grateful for the movie I watched, and talking to my mom about what I should say to my nurse when I call. Oh, and I walked twice, felt good.

I'm grateful for a new book I was able to borrow that I've been wanting to read for so long. It hasn't been available in any libraries or regular bookstores and costs a FORTUNE to buy online. I'm so thankful to have it now, even if for just a weekend.
