Positives?!?

What is a positive for you today?

For me, this is my second day feeling so amazing. If I look to history I would come to the conclusion that at any moment my perspective will change,...my eyes will see gray smoke rising from my skin as I burn in my own small hell and life will suck for me very terribly but for now I’ll try to focus on this great time I’ve been blessed with.

Another positive is that my 7 year old brought home some of his illustrated writings which are amazingly adorable!

Another positive is after almost a month of having work done in the house workers say they will finish up tomorrow. I get my bedroom back, my bed back, my closet back. I can find my photos and become organized again.

Thank you. I know money is not everything but it makes me feel validated and just in time for my son coming home from the marines tomorrow. He will eat that much alone in one month. 😂

Starrlight, hang onto that feeling and don't allow any doubts to cloud your view.

I'm sure the house workers finishing up tomorrow play a big part of this feeling.

I honestly don't think I could have done it myself. So I give you a "high five" for

getting through it. Enjoy your weekend. So happy for you :) xx

Great to here you celebrate your positives. There is too much negativity in this world.

Today is not one if my best days, but I got up. Yeah, go me. I had something to eat and I did my exercise to remind myself of the lovely people I am surrounded by and that tomorrow will be a better day.

It was also a positive to hear you have had a good day. Thank you.

Having a great day myself!!! Telling myself that there will be more of these to come. Incidentally, took 250 mgs of Magnesium before bed last night. Wonder if there is a correlation. Anyone else take this supplement??

My positive is being able to get away for the weekend with my husband. Also knowing my pets will be well taken care of by my daughter. She has already sent me a picture of her and my dog curled up together.

That’s so awesome! Where are you going to if you don’t mind me asking? Nice to have your daughter around to take care of the pets.

Just went an hour and a half south of home. Beautiful hotel on a hillside with an indoor pool and a fire pit outside. Lots to do close by a casino, shopping and many good restaurants. Plan to just relax.
