life safari #128

Happy Monday ! It is good to be on a time cycle that suits my internal clock.
I hear we are going to have a cold front move in this week, I am thrilled !
I am pleased as to how I conducted my self yesterday
I was able for the first time in my life to totally enjoy sharing my massive bucket of popcorn at the movie ! I shared with folks sitting on both sides of me. I had never met the Priests to my right. I now know twin brothers who became Episcopal Priests, had not contact with one another for some time and both chose (unknown to the other) to convert to Catholicism. I met some of Mike's family and friends. What an enjoyable day and evening I had Sunday.

I am Grateful and Thankful...
for my life as a woman of Faith
for my life as a "baby" Catholic
for Don K and his wonderful gifts of himself and articles and books that interest me
for the members at the board meeting yesterday
A few barbs were thrown, I, unfortunately let my old ways show a couple of times. But, other than the room being unlivably hot, no one needed medical treatment (teehee)
God's Grace
thank YOU

life safari #82

I am Grateful and Thankful for/that...

dAAve is celebrating 4 years of sobriety today - Happy Birthday, dAAve !
work was enjoyable yesterday. I intend to make it the same way today
another morning sober and clean
because of sobriety, I have choices today and the courage to make choices
after I see the Doctor this morning I will be on the mend
a great night's sleep last night
a blank sheet of life today. I can write my own journey
I choose to be happy, joyous and free today
I apologized to a co-worker yesterday so that we might end this stand-off
I did nothing that I needed to apologize about
I chose to be happy rather than "right"
He may not feel better, but I do
the courage to change the things I can
God's Grace
