What Made You Happy Today?

The love of family and close friends.
My loving and playful, 1 year old cat, Millie.
Herbal and aroma therapy.
Nature soundings meditations.
Peaceful, quiet time alone.
Warm, spring-like temperatures.
The sound of doves cooing.
Being on new medication for insomnia/anxiety.
The sound of laughter.
Hanging out with my sister.

...all of these things made me happy today.
 
I am so happy that my daughter is taking the girls with her and going to her sisters house and spend the night. I think it will be so good for her to get away and get a break from dealing with her crises situation with her husband. It will do her worlds of good and I hope it so refreshes her so she can come back and finish dealing with all the running around gathering information and doing paperwork.
 
I danced and had fun last night, and I am not going to be upset with myself because I started to dissociate last night near the end of the night. I made it much further through that event than I could have imagined for myself. I am getting better and I learned I can overcome my problems if I feel that I am helping others, even if helping them means to just get them out of their comfort zone enough to dance with their friends. I think I am a bit proud of myself for going last night despite my fears. :happy:
 
Today I left the house and picked up a prescription. I had nightmares last night & have trouble functioning the next day. I could not get out of bed until noon because I had been dissociating since 4am. So I am proud I left the house.

Today I called my brother in Florida and talked for two hours. It has been close to 2 months since we've talked because I've been isolating and in dissociation whenever I am home from work. I admitted to my brother today about the fact that I dissociate and lose so much time when I am home. He listened.
 
I'm happy that my husband was very supportive and considerate last night when sex triggered a flashback and made me go all weird.

I'm happy that I got some alone-time with my older son, who has autism. We went grocery shopping, which he really enjoys helping with. This is a huge big deal because when he was younger, grocery stores used to trigger autism meltdowns of epic proportions.

And I'm happy that I'll soon be enjoying the luxurious trinity of book, bubble bath and wine.
