How's Your Day Been? Each Day is Different, So Make Your Mark Daily

Today is Black Friday. I did very little and only faced one swarm of people at one store. The rest were easy going, in and out. Plus a little on line.

I have to take my cat into the vet in about a half hour. Not much for going out after my big Thanksgiving fest yesterday, but the kitty needs to be checked out. Who am I kidding, I don't like going out period, even though I am suppose to try doing it at least once a day. Well that will be my adventure today.

Frustration with my teenage son is making the afternoon a little difficult. Plus, I'm awaiting a call from the vet regarding my cat's blood work results. Just a bit tense.

Made it through a Monday without my therapy appointment. Only two plus months to go.

Sad my doctors appointments for today and tomorrow have been cancelled due to bad weather, dang. Too many tears today.

Well, it’s 7.15 am here and I’ve been up all night so I expect I’ll be sleeping on and off all day - again.

Today we are going to put our tree up(once I clear a space). It is frozen in a cone shape so we will have to wait until the branches warm up and drop before decorating it. That will be tomorrow. Today is cleaning and getting ready to put up the tree. I feel overwhelmed, but it has to be done.

I have been having a great day. I feel wonderful and it seems that I am having better days than when my husband died six months ago, and moving in with my daughter and her family. I am having a really pleasant day.

Mon, Dec 9 -

Seeing my second closest friend surrounded by so many other friends and family today made me feel glad. I also felt a kind of gladness, or perhaps just a quiet knowing, that my presence among my friend's family and her other friends eased her day a little.

My second closest friend lost her only son today. He lit up a room unlike any other person I've know. He was kind, intelligent, funny and wise. He had problems, but is free now. He was seventeen going on seventy.

Today was filled with deep thankfulness and gratitude. For having known my friend's son;, for having a reminder that life is short; and the reminder that in the end only three things really matter: how much you loved, how gently you lived, and how gracefully you let go of things that aren't needed anymore. It's been a sad day, but a very rich one also.

My husband came home from work today, for a little while, to spend time with me. It was a nice diversion.

It was a bittersweet day. My daughters kitten died and she had some setbacks and all is well now. I got everyone some pizza to celebrate what a loving and caring family we are.

Today I wrapped all the Santa presents ahead of time. I usually do it the night before. I even broke out in a sweat from standing so long, but that is a part of my illness so it is to be expected. I not only wrapped them, I put them back into hiding and cleaned up the mess. It's like nothing happened.

Today, after a two and a half year hiatus, I am getting my hair highlighted. This is a big step for me as I haven't done this since my mother died, and being at the salon has been difficult. (because I'm taking care of my needs). I'm actually looking forward to it, but find I'm procrastinating right now. I should be getting ready to go.
