What Are You Grateful For Today?

I am grateful for seven years with the best dog, and that I got to be her mom. Sometimes it was frustrating, but she was wonderful and such a good girl. I got her as exposure therapy, and she helped me more than she will ever know. We had to say goodbye last night...I am heartbroken, but thankful for the time I had with her.
 
Thank you Gadgie so much for your care of me.
I have been sick since Thursday night and today is the first day that I was able to get some really bland food down and am slowly feeling better. I called the store and talked to the manager that is was a roast chicken that made me so sick and he might want to check them out so this does not happen to anyone else. glad to hear that you are doing better now.
 
@gizmo - Glad you had friends to help you through such a tough time and that now you are feeling better. :)

Today, I feel grateful that I have another day to try to work on my healing, that I can feel a bit of resilience from Friday's episode and that I'm fighting the thinking that usually tells me it's my fault. I'm grateful that I picked up Jesus Calling and read today's entry as it was just what I needed to be told today and every day that I struggle. Lastly, I'm very grateful to have this community as part of my life. Thank you. VB
 
I am grateful that my agency actually removed me from the job that has had me so upset for the past week. I actually spoke with my old recruiter at the agency this morning and she said they would absolutely not send me back into an environment where I was so mistreated and that they would be severing the relationship with the company where I had worked due to how I was treated and what was said to me on Friday. She told me that this would in no way affect my relationship with the agency and that they would work to find something more suitable for me. I have to drop off the key to their office today and she actually asked that I call her out so that she could say "hey." It made me feel good after being so upset for so long. :) VB
 
Wanted to add another. I just spoke with my dad and he said the most supportive and wonderful things to me. He told me that he loved me and would always be "for" me as long as he was living. He offered to help me out financially (yes, I feel 15 again) due to the job situation. He told me that I didn't deserve all that has come my way in life as there has been so much that has been and is bad, and so much that has been and is stressful. He complimented me in saying that he didn't know how I was still alive when dealing with everything that I've had to deal with (he doesn't know the half of it, really, because if he did I think his heart would break) and that he was amazed I was still trying to make a go of life. So many lovely and positive things. It kind of took me by surprise as he usually doesn't speak in such a way to me. Just very kind of him so I am grateful that our relationship has reached this level even after the recent debacles with my sister. I feel blessed and grateful to have him as my dad and I also feel very grateful to have a heavenly father who has carried me through all that I've had to endure and push through in life and still have ahead of me. If it weren't for His grace, I would not be here at all. VB
 
I'm grateful for another day, for a mind that wants to say no to addiction, for a call from the insurance company making the smallest amount of progress, for a call I just got from my agency with a 1 day assignment tomorrow ($9/hr - but, money is money), and for the conversations I had yesterday when I returned the key to my agency with the manager and new recruiter telling me that I was to leave at any point I felt uncomfortable in an assignment due to such bad behavior - that they cared about my safety first.
