What Are You Thankful For?

[KrispyKreme]

I like this idea of focusing on things that I am thankful for instead of thinking of the things I wish I can change.

I am thankful for....
the support system I have.
It took me a long time until I got myself a support system, yes it is small but it is there. I now have someone who I can talk to when things get tough and have someone who can encourage me to continue going even when it is so so so hard.

I am thankful that again, I will have a busy week. I am thankful that I will spend the weekend at my daughters house. I just love going over there to visit for a few days.

I am thankful that I did go to the funeral this morning and it was at a church I have been to. The minister came over to talk with me as he recognized me which felt good.

I'm thankful that my dad purchased a car for my son and bought the materials to build our porch, then did it. We couldn't have done that without him. So I am beyond grateful.

I am thankful that yesterday was a ok day, and today is an ok day too.

I am thankful that I am slowly and surely improving in small ways.

Am very thankful, this week has been very quiet for me, because, on Friday, I will have to go grocery shopping and pay for one of my meds, not covered by the Ontario Drug Plan. Both, can be very stress and anxiety triggering events, for me.

Good luck therisa. Just going to a grocery store is rough I feel for you.

Thank you, Jesse.

I get really bad anxiety attacks therisa at stores and pharmacies and I just have to tell you about what happened to me last year. I went into a Costco to pick up a script and I felt ok because it was the middle of the day and no one was around pharmacy (I thought). I heard this wolf whistle and just kind of looked around and shrugged it off. Then I heard it again and looked down and I am not kidding there was this 90 year old man staring at me and he was in a hoveround scooter. He put it in high gear towards me which was pretty humorous because the scooter sounded like it should be going fast but he wasn't. He got within a few feet of me and said ( with no teeth) "did you hear that?" And he put his hand behind his ear to listen hard then wolf whistled. Then he said " I was whistling at you. You are just as cute as a puppy come sit on my lap!" and slapped his thigh. It was hysterical and horrific at the same time. Hope this helps I am thankful for this story :)

I am thankful that my family has good health and that the garden I have tended to is growing and thriving. Eating fresh tomatoes and cucumbers from the garden is nice.

Mom of two, you are lucky, my garden is pitiful.

I'm thankful for my son getting me to go workout. I know I should and I know I felt better about myself when I did it, but I haven't done it for at least 4 weeks.
