Today I'm grateful for........
Time well spent with a friend.
Laughs with Kay and mom today at work.
Sunflowers and kayaks...
Walking out of the funeral home today with my shoulders back, head held high, the sun on my face, smiling. The last time I was in that funeral home was for my husband's funeral. I went to support my friend, faced my own issues, stayed the course and came out proud and peaceful.
Stumbling upon some new music, Damien Rice... Blower's Daughter, looooooooove that song. Much thanks for the mistake that took me to "just dave's" myspace page where I heard the song. I was brave enough to send him a message thanking him and letting him know he created a new fan, and he was nice enough to message me back. --just nice making a polite connection with some one I've never met.
Facing my emotions, sitting with them and asking myself exactly what I'm feeling, being aware of every moment today.
Moving forward, change is good.
Craig......drumming again!!!!! Get it like you like it man, go and get it!
Good things are happening to the people I love.
You my BIG sunflower, you ;)

Freedom of CHOICE
Today I am grateful for.........
Laying in my bed with a long day behind me, another in front of me, and the weekend is nigh.
Being where I am in my life and being okay with it because I know it wont be long until it changes.
The ability to choose what direction I want my life to go in most of the time, and instilling that in my daughters.
Paying it forward.
A busy week so far. Alone time with each of my daughters.
School enrollment, school supplies, book rental, sports fees, lunch money, the whole bit being handled on Tuesday and they are now ready to go back to school! I'm ready for them to be back in school;) It gives us structure and balance in our lives which I am not good at on my own.
Helping a friend in need. Tonight I helped Mary put together picture boards for her father's funeral. I helped her clean her house and prepare for out of town relatives. We worked, cleaned, and talked for hours, it was lovely getting to know her again. I am thankful to see her good intentions and the change in her that I didn't see before.
Help. After getting groceries and tons of school supplies, the girls helped in the store and at home loading, unloading and putting stuff away. It was so fun to watch the girls spread all of their stuff out on the floor, going through old school stuff deciding what to keep and what to get rid of. They were giggling, being silly, and just enjoying each other while organizing their school stuff. It's so much fun for me to be a fly on the wall they get involved in their conversations with each other and forget I'm in the room some times.

Scott and Vance introducing me to Sir Mix A lot!!!!
Sitting on the floor with Mary and going through her old pictures of every one. Vance, Jones, Pat, we were all just children, even at 18.
Talking with Rosie today at work about strong minded women, and how different things were 50 years ago. Women choosing to live differently than those that came before us while respecting and honoring them.
Knowing that Mary's dad is free and no longer suffering. This is a part of her life that she will soon be able to put behind her and that she is already showing strength and courage, and looking forward to the change in her life.
Really good sex!!! Not that I've had any in a while, just saying....well, you know.
My generosity. I love giving meaningful things to the people I love. ....if I haven't given you something, it doesn't mean I don't love you, just means I haven't been inspired yet. (I usually give paintings, but the painting has to fit the person, and for that,...I must be inspired)
Bonding........ luv luv luv making connections with people.
Miss Sobe stepping out of her box! Change is good, get it like you like it chickadee ;)
