1. The things you’re grateful to have
The ability to take a deep breath, close my eyes, and start over at any point. *deep breath* Hell, good morning.
My parents, especially Dad for the wakeup call. Sunshine. Competent snow cleanup crews. Libraries with internet access. Money. Rent. Hope. A vanilla cap. A giftcard from my sister with which I bought said vanilla cap. A wusband who's being understanding about the $70 I owe him (which could just be because he doesn't expect to see it, but still it's stress I'm glad I don't have).
2. The things you’re grateful NOT to have
Drama. A boyfriend. A girlfriend. An accident. To deal with insurance companies. Anywhere to be for an hour. An eviction notice. Fibro, lupus, or any of the other autoimmune disorders my body could've picked.
3. What you don’t like about yourself
Well, I didn't really deal too well with the traffic today.
4. How you can change what you don’t like about yourself
Deep breaths. Sleep better. And keep trying to let go of what can't be changed.
5. Your greatest qualities
Perseverance. Love. Silliness. An open mind. The ability to take constructive criticism and apply it.
6. Your life goals
Treat myself better. Minister. Be a mommy. Be an inspiration and a role model. Own a home. Build a sanctuary. Be self-sufficient. Have my actions personify my morals. Radiate joy. RV travel.
7. How yesterday’s problems are today’s motivation
Well, there was some financial nonsense caused mostly by lack of organization. I've been doing really well with that, and I have to keep on top of it, even when I'm feeling rar, even when the rest of the world goes kahpluey. I have heard that keeping schedules helps with that. *quirk*
8. What you want to do today
I already went to the bank, got my bankcard and rent. I need to go grocery shopping. I need to take Cam to school and pick him up. I need to write the feds about how much the strike has and is screwing me. I need to breathe and have faith that the bus drivers have souls, because panicking isn't going to help anything. I want to work on my disability paperwork. I should probably finish the chicken soup. I should catch up on backlogged note replies. I need to keep my temper. I need to make sure all my other paperwork stuff is done.
9. How you can make someone else’s day a little brighter
I'm going to smile even when I don't want to. I'm going to try not to take my stress out on people who don't deserve it. I'm going to not take out the computer at Jonas' house, and get Cam to show me what he got for Christmas.
10. You only have one life
So breathe. It can't be that bad. |
