Being grateful

Thankful the weather was dry for walk with friend on Saturday.  That she drove & we had a really good walk & chat, & did a second loop of the woods too.  Thankful for friends.  She also recommends the curry I was thinking about at the market.

That I had a catch up with another friend I rarely speak to, & she thanked me for being modelling boundaries for her & generally being a good influence.

& I made the gaming session in the evening & that was a good laugh.

For library books & access to information.  For perimenopause awareness & being able to have those conversations.  That the doctor was more receptive to it this time.

For doing better energywise this week.

Sending my boss my work update & letting him know I was off for the afternoon.  He appreciated that & we're catching up later in the week.  Also got movement from other people on activities I'm co-ordinating.  Team meeting was especially silly and enjoyable today.  Thankful for the freedom to come & go as I need to.

Stayed dry while I was at the woods, & I had a lovely walk.  Thankful I have my routine now for when I got to the doctor's & it involves the woods.  That the conversation was easy & there's a specialist nurse he had me speak with.  Thankful that the twice I've been lately he's arranged for bloods to be taken in the same visit to save me going back.  That I was lucky to be there on the right day for the nurse & I find them friendlier than the other one.  I got all my appointments arranged for the same visit next week too.

That the cross stitch kit arrived so I can start on that.  Relieved as I was expecting it to be cancelled rather than late.  Also got the stuff I want ordered from Ikea, & ordered more of the little plates I like.
