I'm Thankful...
Monte (so far) isn't fighting his temporary quarantine, attempting to make a prison break run for it.
My son's girlfriend volunteered to take classes, get certified with the state to become my caregiver, help me out with things I can't do for myself yet, like drive, and that she's really nice and a very, very patient person who's pleasant to be around.
That lately even though it isn't that bad things aren't happening, when they do, something comes along that not only rights the situation, but actually leaves me even better off than before the situation occurred. Small stuff, but still refreshing.

This morning I’m thankful for good luck. Things could have been worse for me had it not been for luck.

Good luck allowed me walk away from a horrendous car accident. Good luck landed me in Southern California. It was also good luck that got me this job and the home I live in. I’m a hard worker and can be persistent—that’s what kept me at the job and in my home, but it was sheer luck that I came across these things.

I’ve been lucky in life and for that I’m thankful.

I too am happy to be alive. Life can be fragile sometimes.

I am thankful for my family
For my dear friends
My kitties
My home
My job
My good health

I too have been lucky all my life and I never take that for granted.

I am thankful for my happy and successful life.

I'm thankful for therapy and meds. And I'm especially thankful for my stepmom who pushed me to get both.

I've had depression on and off for more than 25 years. However it's always been moderate for the most part. Sometimes it's worse in the winter.

Unfortunately, over the last year or so it's been worse. I work in mental health and *should* know better, but I kept thinking I could just get through it.

I finally reached out for help (after much encouragement from my stepmom) and started a new medication. (I've been on some meds for years.) It's amazing how after just a short time that medication has made a difference.

I have been interested in doing things again, I have stopped laying in bed all day, and the thoughts of death have gone away.

So today I'm thankful for that little tiny pill and, most especially, for my stepmom who pushed me to get help.

A chance to move. I'm scared as hell, but grateful to have the option.

Thankful daily for my many blessings no matter how big or small. I fall short every day, but I am thankful and humbled for being blessed with much more than I deserve.

Thankful my Daddy gets to come home next week. Though I don't think he or Mom are ready for this challenge
