Today I am tired because for some reason I couldn't sleep last night (I think the full moon was actually so bright it kept me awake!) However, I've decided to just get into work a little later. That is one thing I am grateful for right now – that I work for people who are very easygoing about my work hours, as long as I make them up. I am also getting paid today at that job, because I have people who have been pulling for me, giving me guidance to help work through the system so that I can get paid in a more reasonable fashion. I have thanked them and will continue to do so, because it's great to have them on my side.
I am also making a very nice pot roast for dinner in the crock pot, which I am figuring will be fork tender by the time I get home from work this afternoon. Right now it smells great, and I can't wait to have it tonight. It makes me feel as if I am doing something good, succeeding at something that I haven't been able to do much of over the past year (I am looking on the bright side, so I won't get into why. I'm just glad I'm getting back to this part of me that, in the past, always made me feel good about myself.)
Friends and family have been contacting me, keeping in touch, making sure I'm okay. That is a blessing that I am definitely grateful for.
I can choose to focus on the negative things in my life that make or have made me unhappy. Or I can focus on the positive things, the things that buoy me up, the little successes and the fulfillments. Hmmm…tough choice. I think I know where I'll be working to focus my thoughts from now on!
