1.
Things like this.
I’m very interested in chakras. And in chakra healing, ever since I could not speak.
2.
I just played
Chopin.
3.
SO beautifully.
4.
AT 5:20 am no
less
5.
I feel – good. Oh
thank you, God.
6.
I have met
someone nice. Online. I don’t know if we will have a nice relationship, or even
ever meet. But the fact that I could feel good about that is so encouraging to
me!
7.
And even MORE
importantly, to feel good about things that are NOT that: )
8.
Like my birds.
Yes, I feel very good about those boys.
9.
And the things I
learned Friday and literally started doing yesterday, in class. I believe in
them very much. Was already doing – but
did not realize how MUCH growth can occur in the children if done CONSISTENTLY
day after day week after week (these are “extras, “ so mostly I have always
done them more sporadically).
10.
And the cooking I
did Sunday. I know, it is no big deal for most people. They do this every
night. But I have been where I have been. Have been through what I’ve been
through. Have been who I am. And it is a big deal that I’m eating home cooked
food now. And only have to COOK every 5 – 6 days in order to do so
11.
The extra walking
I did yesterday.
12.
The great book I
just finished. (Light between the Oceans).
13.
The book course
today. I’m glad I’m in it.
14.
Taking out all
that garbage at 5 this morning.
15.
The warm weather.
16.
Still, as started
some time last week, feeling – ok – just walking throuth the house…
17.
The Thich Nhat
Hanh people – Sister Chan Khong – what a woman – what a background – what work
she has done/does
18.
And her singing,
“When I wake in the morning, I am happy, when I go to the kitchen, I am happy,
When I go to the toilet, I am happy, Because I’ve learned to breathe deeply.”
Etc.
19.
*I * am feeling
that way more now.
20.
Just from even
this LITTLE BIT of meditation each morning!
21.
So yes, all these
things are mine. NOT dependent on J or any other guy. Thank God for these
things.
22.
Tonight there is
a phone call Rosary taking place for 10 minutes. I MIGHT join in.
23.
I was great at
before school meeting yesterday

glad I did the right thing by my mother yesterday
26.
I am grateful
that I have been doing the fun learning things with the kids
27.
Less time on
computer
28.
I’m grieving the
loss of what I thought was a very promising online dating guy. That may sound
extreme but I never felt so excited about someone online til him. And email 3
is starting to sound foreign. I have had two that turned out to be
boilerplates; apparently this one is too. Why am I grateful then? Because I saw
it and stopped.
29.
And because I
would never send any money.
30.
I’m grateful that
dr came yesterday
31.
And for the
(organic) salads I’ve been having for lunch
32.
And the greens
for my birdies
33.
And my breath.
It’s especially good. I wonder if it is due to the (my first ever) flu shot?
34.
I have made a
decision. I will NOT do the mealworms
part of our science unit. Because at the end we are to euthanize them. I will
not do it. So I have requested the help of the science helping teacher in
finding another life cycle to do. I now know what was bothering me so much
about this, and am grateful for that
35.
And grateful that
will not do
36.
And grateful that
WILL find something else
37.
Grateful that ML
called last night to tell me of MA’s hospitalization!
38.
And that I will
call MA today.
