Thankful Thursday

Hmm. I seem to have less to be thankful for than I thought I would yesterday morning. So here goes, anyway.

• Colleen, of course, and the love, friendship, and snuggle that keeps me going.
• Finally getting off my arse and simply doing things, in several different areas. I just hope I can sustain that momentum for a few more weeks. Months. Years?
• Getting almost a side-by-side comparison of two different sets of physical sensations that apparently mean very different things. I know for sure what anxiety feels like, now; what the heck is that other one?
• Pain, nature's way of telling you "don't do that, then!"
• Learning experiences.

Sort of back-handed in spots. Deal.

Done yesterday (20100224 We)

( raw notes )

Spent much of the day feeling physically and emotionally drained. Some of that was, I suppose, getting and dealing with the check from my broker. Too many digits there. Realizing just how deep a hole I've dug for myself; that's not a comfortable thing to have to face.

And the hospital beds arrived -- but without the mattresses. I stupidly didn't count boxes and check them off against the packing list, so I'll have a lot of hassle to go through today. Again.

And the XO, that I felt so good about finally finding its way to a kid who will love it, is having problems. They may be minor, but at this distance I can't fix them. More later, maybe.

Sometimes it isn't a case of the glass being half full or half empty, but of it being twice as big as you can handle.

QOTD

$boss: $coworker's not here. So no 2 o'clock meeting.

me (checking time): We're having our 2 o'clock meeting.

$boss: Guess we're done, then.
