1. Waking up at 3:30 p.m. while thinking that it was 3:30 a.m. until I went into my living room and saw the light shining in through my window (there's no window in my bedroom). This meant that I finally had good sleep from a night filled with panic and insomnia.

2. Figuring out how to use this forum more and more. Also, receiving replies and connecting with people here.

3. Eating a yummy veggie burger for brunch.

4. Having a roof over my head and some relative stability in my life.

5. Being okay with resting today, even if that means that I don't get all my chores done.
