It's The Only Good Thread

I did the food shopping in spite of how lousy I feel. I cleaned the sink off and I cleaned the bar off, and I mopped the kitchen floor. I am accomplishing things today. Trying to keep busy.

Today is a beautiful day. We will have a fun time at my daughters house. I am looking forward to it.

Well since it's after midnight by about nearly 3 hrs. I'll speak for this new day.

My mind is working clearly tonight, I feel lots of good energy and I will still accomplish more which needs to get done - probably doing an all-nighter tonight, but I'll accept and be alright with this.

So it is good that I am not obnoxiously slow in thinking and being able to move about. Also good is my energy and any results from jobs well done.

I've been away for a long time, there are so, so, so many genius threads here I keep bumping into, whoa!

Good. I discovered a deep, deep betrayal yesterday of gosh, 25 years duration- more family cr*p. Hee- not what anyone would term GOOD, what has been good has been the deliberate mindfulness I've been able to employ. Still working it - need to watch it. It has not flattened me, will not- did not torment my family with the PTSD fall-out, or myself for that matter. Still ended as a Good Day.

I got a little much needed sleep. This is good since my sleep has been interrupted by pain. That's okay, I usually wake up several times a night to begin with. This time there is an excuse for it.

We get a brand new year to grow and experience better days ahead!

My family and I made it to mass this morning. :happy:

Our aunt stopped by and then later requested to treat us to submarine sandwiches. Since one of the cars has broken down so my daughter and I agreed and set out enjoying the walk there.

While still giving instructions on how to make the last 3 subs, the first 2 subs were wrapped and waiting on the counter. When I reached the register I was informed that the two subs laying on the counter were already paid for. I was in disbelief as a man standing alongside me reassured that yes he had already paid for these subs and wished to pay for the next 3, and did.

There was surprise, feelings, (at one point, I ended up saying that he was going to make me cry) my thanks and great appreciation, disbelief and some conversation and with him even cracking a much welcomed joke.

At one point in time he had even commented that there are people in life that are good.

He almost brought me to tears overall and I walked out of there with my daughter and us feeling happy and many other mixed postive feelings, as well as states of acceptance fluctuating with states of surprise and shock.

I even put my bare hands in the snow in order to fully wake and extend all those good feelings and such a generous and random surprise. He was a stranger and I did not know the man and it was not in the least bit ill motivated.

Wow! :happy:

:)

Oh' and gee can you imagine the surprise to our aunt when we returned with all of her sub money, plus 5 foot-long subs. This part was exciting and lots of fun too. :D

Took care of stuff that needed to be done after being in the bed for a week due to bad depression. Today, I had progress in my life.

I got a call from both my children today! Its a first! This will help with building the trust again.

A good thing, it did not snow!

Took the Giant Sequia Christmas tree down yesterday without booing for the entire day, first Christmas without Dad in the past now.
