It's The Only Good Thread

I decided I focus on the bad. The noise in my head. My struggles. Just about all the negative that resides in my day. So I am changing that by acknowledging the good in my day as well. Maybe it can help to remind myself of good things. Please join in. It does not matter how small it is.

I got to come home and not have any other appointments today.

I opened this thread.
 
I made even more progress gathering and organizing copies of my medical records.

There is chocolate milk, juice, fresh salad and dressing, good dressing and yogurt in my refridgerator, I shopped for these today and these are some favorites.

Out of the blue, our dog continues to pull off some silly and ridiculously cute and funny poses, performances and mischievous stunts.

My husband and I chose the recipe, have been defrosting the turkey and are planning a big turkey T-dinner for our family for later this week; One in which he's able to join us.

Something I said earlier, brought me to tears after having said such, and there was no angst or issue taken. I was allowed to just let some tears quietly flow and then go wipe them off.

There is ice-cream in my freezer which I am about to soon enjoy with chocolate sauces. I'm gonna climb into bed and perhaps find something worth watching.

I was able to structure and write six + full sentences without too great of confusion, loss, frustration and added stress.

Right now, the ice-cream is just about soft enough to scoop-up and indulge in.

Great idea :tup: and thread Nighthawlk.
 
Today I worked on lighting in my place because dim lighting brings out my depression. I also did core power yoga which I find empowering. There were other things I did like riding my bike so many miles and carrying groceries back in my bike bags (I'm into protecting the environment so I refuse to own a car) so I feel like I accomplished a bit today. Currently I'm munching on veggie sticks with garlic and herb chevre goat cheese. It might sound odd but it's pretty tasty.

By the way, I love this exercise of optimism. I've become very good at counting blessings even in terrible situations; a hard life can do that to one. But the game doesn't always work. I love when it does though!
 
My 3 year old swam for the first time today by himself with no float aids, we were all very excited :D :inlove:

We had a delicious meal provided for us by wonderful friends :)

I get to see a very dear friend soon, give her a hug and can share some food with her also :inlove:

Life does indeed have moments of wonderful :)

I like this positive thread, thank you :tup:
 
I am blessed by my friend PH who has stood by my side through all of this and has never given up on me.
I am blessed by some of my children who are doing the best that they can to help.
I am blessed by 3D friends and my virtual friends who are here to support me in every way that they can.
I am blessed that I have insurance that is covering this outrageously expensive procedure that will give me back years of life that I would be able to live without it.
But most of all, I am blessed because I am loved by many
