I am grateful for the amazing present in my body, at times, life that I am leading!

A roof over my head to protect me from the outside crazies at night. A insured car to drive that is in relative good shape still. My triple aaa roadside assistance card, they come out to me attend to problems with my car. Food to eat, books to read, God, answered prayers. Showers and toilets and sundries. A cute backyard with a great big flowering purple tree and a beautiful vine with large yellow flowers. The upcoming fall. Coffee in the mornings. The forum and friends here. The staff of the forum who have always been so helpful to me. Belonging here and fitting in here. I could go on but won't:playful::banghead::banghead::banghead:

Grateful for remembering how to get myself through a gall bladder attack, although it scared me enough to ask the hubby to call 911. The time it took them to arrive was all it took to ease the pain and my nerves. Vitals checked out okay, they were super kind and had a great sense of humor, and I didn't need to visit the ER again.

Now, to get my ass back on track with some more liver/gall bladder flushes, acupuncture, and tightening up the reigns on what I know to be healthier options instead of remaining a slave to my f*cking taste buds and insisting on "treating" myself. Yeah...keep on telling yourself you "deserve" said treats and see where it lands ya'.

Just goes to show and prove once again that even once you clearly know better, you still have to consciously act upon that knowledge in every single choice you make to get/keep improved results. f*ck the food industry and all their shenanigans. Time for a solid food vacation to clear my innards of their painful debris.

I am beyond grateful for the ability to continue to learn of the poisonous, toxic substances that are in my food and now in the process of major detox from dairy (even eggs) and all meats (even seafood, except perhaps a few times a year will treat self) and also off of all sugars (except for occasional raw honey) I am feeling so much f****** better! Woohoo and am beginning to just realize how physically and mentally sick I've been needlessly keeping me and I've been making myself sick by what I eat. OMG! My mind today is clearer than it's ever been - scary wonderful!

Tornadic Thoughts oh I am also beyond grateful for your honesty about on occasion eating foods that make you feel so sick and cause your gall bladder to flare up in pain and sickness...for I needed to know this - and that I too just can't expect myself to be minutely perfect at changing my very sick eating habits into healthier eating habits! Since I cannot afford all organic veggies and fruits and I still take in some (gluten free) grains I so thank you TT for your honesty and for everything! Woohoo!:hug:

I'm grateful for better weather.

For feeling a bit better
For black cherries
For time with harry the cat
For an enjoyable documentary on a new (to me) artist
For feeling little like I belong even though it brought up many fears

Crocs. I love them.

So I am making progress! Woke at 2am and 4am but not with panic attacks! I am greatful that I was able to settle myself back down and get up at 4.30am for half an hour of Mindfulness Body Scan! I AM MAKING PROGRESS! I am so grateful for my progress! I am grateful that I have worked so hard on this. I now go to bed much, much earlier, and I have a totally different routine.

For umbrellas when you have to take the dog out at 5 A.M. and it is pouring rain.
For a beautiful day and a lovely dinner with good friends.
For the beauty of nature and the local wildlife.

I am grateful that there is one less person who will be in life who was coming across to me as very toxic. I was blindsided by someone whom I knew back in high school so many years ago, and now I can feel free again from her.

I am grateful that I knew I had to take care of me and not to feel guilty about doing what I needed to do. I am grateful that this indeed was a powerful learning experience for me and for that, I am grateful.
