GRATEFUL FOR WAKING UP

I am grateful to the Almighty because I woke up to a beautiful autumn day.

I'm happy!  I'm healthy!  I'm ready to begin the day!  

Last night the girls played Mahjong at my house.  It was lots of fun. I also went to Plainview Meditation where I'm learning a great deal.

Today I was supposed to have an early morning meeting with Dom BUT that did not happen.  I will be going to Plainview Medtation and then going to the apartment for a wonderful overnight with Charles.  We are going t a library program in Smithtown called LONG ISLAND 250 YEARS:  THEN AND NOW.

I am grateful to the Almighty fr all that He has done for me.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR LEARNING NOT TO WORK SO HARD

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has shown me that I don't have to work as hard as I do.

Charles left this morning and I will be going to the apartment tomorrow and come home on Wednesday.  We had a wonderfulul weekend at PJC and at All Souls culminating in a wonderful date with Anita and Ray at Bobby Sings Bobby.

I have decided not to work so hard with Dana and Madalyn.  Madalyn was horrible when she slept over and I raised my voice to her.   Dana will not let me speak to her even though I said that I would apologize.  I sent a Halloween card.  I am now moving on....the cards to Madalyn will continue to Madalyn but the texting and calling won't.

Thank you Almighty for teaching me to work less.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR BEING PROUD OF ME

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has never let me down and has always been proud of me.

No matter what my Mother of the Creature said I was always proud of me. The Almighty allowed that to be so and I am grateful for it.

At this point in my life, the Almighty brought Charles who confirms all that I ever believed about myself.

Charlie will be in Plainview for the weekend.  We have a Havdalah Service, dinner and Bonfire at PJC tomorrow night.   Charlie is doing a reading at All Souls on Sunday and Sunday night with be th Bob and Ray Big bash.

Thank you Almighty for my new life and for keeping me strong so I could be proud of me.

GRATEFUL FOR APPRECIATING MY HOME

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has allowed and helped me to become a secure individual.

I have become proud of myself and my accomplishments.  Although I still wake up with PTSD it passes as I know t will and I awaken to a new day filled with happiness and joy.  I look at my home with different eyes and really love it.  I enjoy space and living by myself. Each time Charles comes there is new delight in seeing him.  There is joy in attending the activities I do.

It was a good thing that we are taking time to see if we should move in together. Life is joyful.  Last night Charles took me to dinner in a new Mexican restaurant in Woodbury. The food was delicious.  We came home to watch a Dolly Parton show.  This morning Charles and I had breakfast and he left.

I have chores to do.  I will have a session at Plainview Meditation and walk at The Home Depot.  I hope to read and relax.

Thank you Almighty for my new feelings about my life.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR LEARNING TO NUTURE MYSELF

I am grateful to the Almighty because I noticed a difference in myself these last few days.  The Almighty is teaching me to nurture myself.

I've had dinner at home, walked and done my chores. I've been peaceful learning to love myself. I have eaten well and slept well.  I've even gone out at night to a Sisterhood activity and a Meet the Candidates night.  Freddy came over. Perillo came and voila my boiler is fixed.

Charles is taking me out to dinner tonight.  I'm sure it will be a peaceful and happy night.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.
