Things I’m Grateful For on Thursday 8 May
I’ve found these things to be grateful for or appreciate today:
- A god night’s sleep.
- My bed was just the right temperature this morning, and I didn’t want to get out of it.
- I’m not in work until 1PM, so I have some time to myself before work.
- Breakfast cereals.
- Being able to turn my speakers up and drown out mom talking.
There’s only so much “he’s gone without you, Wenna. He’s gone without you. Isn’t it a shame he’s gone without you…” that I can take (dad has gone out and left the dog behind). - Getting some nice comments from various new readers.
- The milk was free of alien lifeforms today (I found a slug inside the milk bottle yesterday).
- I’m off work tomorrow.
- I’ve been accepted by the Alliance and Leicester bank for a new account, which means I should earn £50.
- Playing with Wenna and the hosepipe.
- The dried mealworms I ordered from ebay have arrived.
- Mom’s book I ordered from Amazon has arrived.
- Lovefilm have sent me another couple of DVD’s.
- I’ve been paid back by another $4 on Kiva.org. I’m up to $380 now.
- Safe driving.
- Work went OK.
- A delicious pasty, and a sandwich from Greggs.
- I texted a friend earlier, asking her if she was enjoying the warm weather we’ve been having. She replied that she wasn’t, but was making the most of it be washing the curtains.
I thought that this was a great case of “making hay while the sun shines”. - I got the £5 from the SMS survey. I should also be getting 12p for every text I sent.
- The working day is over, and I’m off tomorrow.
- I’m glad today that Wenna is in my life. We’ve been playing with the hose pipe again.
- A tasty evening meal.
- I seem to have gotten a plugin working in the Wordpress installation on my new blog host.
- I have the entire day to myself tomorrow.
- The bubble seems to be developing. I really seem to be developing the ability to stand back and look at a person’s emotions, and keep them separate from my own.
- Catharsis. And getting another post on RandomBlatherings. I could get used to this being nasty malarkey.
- Today, I really “get” Taught Me Well by Alice Peacock.
- The freeing up of energy that catharsis brings. I really feel like laughing.
- That I am aware that there is more to life than “things”. I think I’d like to make my mantra “does it make me feel good?” and then live by that. If something doesn’t make me feel good, I shan’t do it.
- I’ve ordered some mealworms from ebay, and they should be here on Tues/Wed of next week.
- Alice Peacock. I just love her voice.
Things I’ve laughed at today:
- #18.
- Laughing with Dinky.
Things I want to manifest:
- A nice, quick, easy, simple day at work with pleasant customers. I’ve learned that I need to be specific.
MANIFESTED.
Things I’ve done for others:
- Fetched the milk in.
- Served lots of customers.


remember, the slug can be seen as ‘protein’
*cough*

Normally, things like that don’t squick me out, but it’s the thought of it being in the milk. I think we gave it to the dog in the end.

and the time to do as I choose.
