I'm so thankful for the outpouring of support, love, compassion and concern after my fall yesterday. You all (you know who you are ;-) ) really do brighten my day.

I received so many PM's that my PM box is full so I can't respond until I get on the computer to delete old sent files. Please know I'm not ignoring you. I've just been so exhausted and sore today that it's made me a bit slow.

To answer a few questions until I can respond personally....
The leg isn't broken but it's badly bruised and swollen just below the knee ...both ankles sore from twisting...and hands/arms/shoulders sore from catching my fall. It will take a while to heal but I am so very thankful for many things....including my friends that look out for me and a peaceful place to take my time healing

373 days of Sobriety
For 2 amazing black cats that drive me crazy
For friends that make me laugh when I wanna cry
For an awesome Higher Power
That I can still walk at leisure
For the power of time to heal

I am thankful for my cousin, who is helping to clean out my fathers house and simplify his life so he can live better.

Getting into the office at 6am when phones aren't ringing, emails aren't coming in, and most of my work mates are still fast asleep.

Family and friends

I'm living temporarily with a male friend while finishing my 2 weeks notice at work...

Not only did he let me stash my stuff in his spare room, ge let me and my dog stay in his other spare room for a few days...

He also watches Jacques while I'm at work...encourages me to eat and gave me an extra heater so I'm warm at night...

Last night he stumbled through telling me he's in no hurry for me to be gone and that it was nice having me here.....sigh

I'm blessed and thankful for good friends in my life...and he and I do make good roomies. We are like a platonic couple but we think to do things for each other. The man has folded my underwear...and I his lol

I am truly a lucky girl and I appreciate the gifts from the universe...you can never overdo gratitude..

What am I thankful for?
 

1. My therapist
2. My own apartment
3. The ability to just drive away and go home when I need to.

Family, friends, having a roof over my head and being alive!

I'm thankful that I have my two pups here lying next to me snoozing. They are so cute!

I'm so thankful for the opportunity to teach such a great bunch of kids! I really love those kids! Even when then are less than perfect! :cheer:

Peace, tranquility, calm...

And truly genuine, deeply honest friends.

A challenging and stimulating new job that I'm really enjoying. Also, the playful office banter and the fact I'm accepted just as I am.

Lower gas prices.

Thankfull for all the people in my life who love me. That's the real blessing every day.

The Graphical User Interface first developed at Xerox.

My strong peasant genes... ability to learn.... beautiful fall weather .... living near beach again ... my fur babies.... the list is endless.

My creative energy...

My ability for compassion, even when it's not appreciated (a caseworker's job is often difficult because we can't distance ourselves from our compassion and feelings that we "want to fix everything"...)

I'm thankful my gramma used to tell me "have patience"...and taught me the value of such

I'm thankful for my strength, as it's helped me overcome adversity.

I'm thankful for Valomilk bars, nom nom nom

Where there's a will.........

I'm very thankful I was able to overcome last night's pain in my shoulders and the beginning of a nasty migraine...

I'm even more thankful for being given opportunities for certain freedoms and an open door to use my creative and building abilities to enhance my financial standing. (It's so fun to work on projects that I enjoy and make money, rather than work in a high stress job!)

I'm intensely thankful for being encouraged and supported to do what I want, when I want and with whom I want to share my time with.

I'm eternally grateful for people in my life that know the meaning of true friendship offered without unhealthy expectations.

And I'm very contently thankful for a wonderful and fun day, despite the horrible, cold rain and shin deep mud.

Im thankful for heat and extra blankets....and my little poodle/lamb who is also a snuggle bunny...

my sweet Abby Goose
