Support

Thankful for an easy work day, & for chatting with team mates.  That I made up my hours from earlier in the week, & the mistake I made has no impact.

For having friends to support me & people who understand me.
Check-ins from old acquaintances. 

That we sat on the sofa together for the intro, impressed husband lasted til the end.  That the annoying one isn't in our class.

That I went out to the bunny before it started to snow.

That I'm feeling better, & looking forward to the conversations with husband I expect the course to generate.  That I had a mini reset listening to cotton eyed Joe & a bounce around the kitchen & I'm starting to remember to intercept that descent.

Survival

Very thankful I realised I wasn't wearing my glasses & found them before they got damaged.  Also that I'd dropped them on the ground rather than in the post box.

That I had a blanket in the car so could take off my wet coat & still wrap up a little.  That I got to the post box & posted my signed paperwork.

For husband bringing me a smoothie as a treat, & for all the effort he puts into meals and treats for me.  Including things like choosing the jigsaws. & for signing up for the course with me.

That I got a reply from my coach & she's happy for me to quit, so I'm quitting.

That I was home in time to speak to someone having issues.  That I stayed reasonably calm & got through my work, & had fun chatting with a workmate.

That I made it to Pilates & am enjoying my new "space".  For the teacher keeping the class online & that I got to make a recommendation for an exercise to include.

Friends & admin

Thankful I reached out to friend & have the paperwork signed now.  That he came round & we had a good catch up.
That it was fine when I went to the woods, & I got parked ok, had a decent loop & it was quiet.

For youtube tutorials & that I've figured the crochet, & had all the supplies I need, for the shops around us & for internet shopping.
For my day off, being able to afford the counselling & the 4 day week, & being able to relax and enjoy my time.

That I've emailed a few people today, the admin is in hand.

For speaking to friends, & the internet for keeping in touch.

Holidays

Thankful to remember Pilates, that it was a good session & I managed well.  That there's plenty of room for me in the kitchen & it's a better place to do it.  Thankful to teacher for keeping it going.

To husband for organising food, & looking after me, for checking if I want hot chocolate & then making it for me.

To friends I've been chatting with today, & for the reminder to be compassionate.

That I got the bunny in before the weather turned bad.  That the Christmas decorations fit into the box, & I got the tree away ok.

That husband's made progress on the jigsaw with me so there's hope we'll get it finished this time.

For holidays, and holiday pay, & enjoying a relaxing start to the day.

For all the entertainment we have, & the access to people & resources via the internet.

Better

Thankful to wake up feeling better.

That the rain was bad, glad I cancelled the walk, & got the jigsaw finished & husband put it away & got the next one out.

That I resisted ice-cream tonight & husband didn't make me hot chocolate.  He bought me flowers when he went shopping, & knows my favourites.  That he remembered the stuff I asked for & even found the more obscure dried fruit that he'd never got before.

That the scarf is looking good, & was worth pulling out & restarting.

That I did my shift, & friend popped on too so we weren't overwhelmed & I had the sense to stop when I needed to.

That I can go to bed when I'm tired, without obligations.

Resting

Food deliveries, & other deliveries.

Being able to take it easy.

Freedom from obligations, being able to spend my time how I wish.

That we have voices and the freedom to use them, platforms like facebook, linkedin, & blogs.

That husband looks after me, & knows when to leave me alone.  For a calm, drama-free life.

For food in the cupboard, & a warm safe house, & running water & electricity.

That we have plenty of space and time for hobbies, and rest.
