So I was on this forum and I realized, a lot of my posts have been negative. I know at those times I was down, but today I just want to say some good things right now!

I finished an AMAZING book.
I passed my Spanish 2 quiz! I got a B+
We actually have money to pay for our bills.
I listened to this really cool new song that made me dance. (When no one was looking...) .
I got this new cute blue dress.
My sister joked with me a bit

Even though I'm kinda down right now and am still cutting a lot, I want to focus on these things. I like the little smile they bring to my face when I think about them. Write some things that brings smile to your face below!

I'm glad to see you are feeling better. I'm at a low point right now but there are still some good things.

I got the new position at work, it comes with a $2.75 raise. So the fourth raise in 6 months.
My daughter is into Halloween as much as I am. She hasn't taken her bunny suit off in days.
And I found this forum which has helped quiet the voices a bit, as I focus on others problems and not my own.

What was the book? I'm always on the lookout for a good read.

Hey! Sorry for the long wait for the reply, I'm trying to limit my internet use.
The book is more of a teen book, so I'm not sure you'll like it, but it's called The Maze Runner. Perhaps you've heard of the movie?
Anyway hope you enjoy your Halloween!

I'm glad you have things to smile about

Good to see you have some things to feel good about

I think remembering the good things is important. No situation is wholly bad or wholly good - a lot just depends on our perspective.

Browncurtains that's a great idea!
It's autumn, and I love waking up in the morning and seeing the mist in the valley, and the diamonds on the spiderwebs. It's beautiful where I live.
And my kids are fab, amazing, funny.
I have lovely friends
And an amazing t.

LDG my favourite book of all time is the shipping news, Annie proux. It is not particularly jolly, there are some *trigger* incest references in it but I think it is an amazing book.

Definitely down in the dumps, so it's taking me a minute to figure these out but five things I can definitely see His hand at work in:

My Caramel salt candle.
My paycheck was larger than normal this week. And I really need that money to pay for my wisdom teeth removal next week.

I have a T who really cares about me in spite of the fact that I always push her away.
I haven't had to wake up early to drop the kids off at school for a long time.

No matter how rough I feel or how everything goes back downhill emotionally, even after a night of crying, cutting and feeling hopeless I feel I always wake up with an immediate thought that i'm thankful to be alive. Not sure why, but I appreciate it.
