May it continue to be so.
Charles will be spending New Year's weekend with me. What a wonderful man he s and how blessed I am that the Almighty chose him for me. We are a couple and I have a ring that I wear on the third finger of my left hand. Wow!
Thank you Almighty.
I am grateful.
I am grateful to the Almighty because He has seen fit to place Charles in my life.
Thank you.
I am grateful to the Almighty for the wonderful and amazing life that He has given me.
Yesterday I had lunch with Doris and Ronnie.
Today I will be going to Charles until December 29. I am very, very, very excited and happy to do this.
Thank you Almighty.
I am grateful.
I am grateful to the Almighty because He has made me a very bright woman with a great deal of acceptance and understanding.
This does NOT mean that I accept poor behavior but rather I understand the person and their actions. I evaluate my life and see how good it is and how much I have accomplished. There is no need to waste time with those of very little value.
Last night Charles slept over and there was so much laughing about what Hilary had done. I described her as a little mother who cares so much about me when and this is to quote her....."I am running amok." It's amazing how you can interpret something in different ways so that you can move on and live a wonderful life. Even when she said that I associate with Charles who goes to a cabin with "random people" I did not react. Neither did he! We just laughed and moved on. He was fascinated by the "little mother" in Hilary.
I am grateful to the Almighty for helping me to accept and understand and therefore appreciate my wonderful life.
Thank you.
I am grateful to the Almighty because there is a lot of fun in my life.
Sometimes it does take getting used to. I think that this is because I'm not used to having joy. I'm used to criticism.
Yesterday Charles left and will be back tonight. We will both be playing BINGO with the Sisterhood! What fun!!!
Last night I had dinner at Golden Palace with my friends. We played Mahjongg. I was delighted with myself.
Today I hope to get some chores done and go for a manicure.
I am grateful to the Almighty for the fun and joy in my life.
Thank you.

Thank you.
I am grateful to the Almighty because He has brought the ID out in me and I am having fun.
Freddy put the furniture back in the living room and dining room and I can unpack.
He brought Alexa for me to sing with and I am thrilled. The joy that I feel in music is wonderful. I was never allowed to be happy and sing or do things like this. I was told that I was happy. He was miserable and he would make me as miserable as he is. That never happened. He is dead. I am free and it feels absolutely wonderful.
Charles is coming to spend the weekend. How much joy, fun and laughing will that be?
I will be unpacking today and singing while I do this.
Thank you Almighty for the fun in my life.

Last night Leslie spoke of Giving in this holiday season.
I realized that there are non-material things that I can give myself. Each day until the end of the year I will mention one of them.
However in general I will care about myself and give myself the gift of caring.
It is for this that I am grateful.
Thank you Almighty.

It will take time for those feelings to fade and me to enjoy the day and the days ahead. Charles and I went to a golf store and purchased his Christmas gift.......he took me to Total Wine and Wow!!! He took me to lunch at Kabul a new restaurant that we found.
Life is so good.
Thank you Almighty for my new Life.

Charles values me. He validates me and for this I am so grateful.
This has NEVER happened to me before. I worked so hard to be loved. I did what was expected. I swallowed all the insults. I gave and gave and gave like the book The Giving Tree until I was completely depleted.

I don't have to do that in my new life. I'm me and happy that the Almighty made me who I am.
My fiends validate me.

My home is mine and it is safe.
My new sofa bed came yesterday as I am redecorating the den. The black table will be placed in front of it. I'm putting sod floors in the den, living room and dining room. Freddy will be here at 9:30.

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has seen fit to allow me to understand the different levels of Charles so that I do not have the need to break up with him.
He is indeed childlike.......his Id works overtime while my Ego and Superego are on positive drive. Therefore he needs to be told what he needs to do and I don't.
I'm glad that yesterday was worked out. We discussed this and moved on.

Yesterday Charles went to his mom's house to begin the process of cleaning the house out. I went to services and walked from 3-5PM. How can I explain the joy of coming home and finding pumpkins and plants running down my steps?? How can I explain the joy of Yon Tov dinner with him in the dining room as I said my prayers?

These are the normal joys.......but my life has not been like that.
