Days of Grace: 218/365
ByAfter a week like this, and several days of posting about being grateful for a handful of drugs I’ve been tossing back every 6 hours or so, and still being in pain despite sleeping for 12 hours last night, I don’t have a whole lot I feel grateful about. But it’s weeks, and days, like this that make me dig down and find five things to be grateful for. It’s days like today, when everything sucks, that I really need this gratitude exercise.
- I am hurting, which reminds me I am alive
- I had a car to drive to work this morning, and it started on the first try
- I have a job to come to today, even if it’s pissing me off
- I had sick time to use this week, so my paycheck will not be short even though I haven’t worked the whole week
- I have a boss who gets it, so I will not get fired for using my sick time
