Gratitude list of today:

I have a roof over my head and an understanding landlord.
I have clean clothes.
I have dried beans. Yay, let's hear it for the pintos! I also have sweet potatoes. And what about that peanut butter? These will be what pulls me through until money begins rolling in. Barry has eaten everything in the apartment.
I have 1/4 tank of gas in the truck to get me around. Hey, that's better than being empty.
I have two cats for companionship. Love that Cocoa and Alley.
I've got a job.
My phone works and I still have the internet.
I've got electricity and cable.
I've got blankets and a comfortable bed to sleep in. It beats sleeping on the couch.
The historical society is helping me with my book a little here and there.
The new Al-Anon group may begin to grow as there is some interest expressed in it.
Barry is okay about doing the Leg Up horse back riding therapy and he's interested in learning how to use a computer. He's going to go to the library while I'm at work to have someone there teach him.


I have to keep reminding myself to look on the bright side other wise I'd get really depressed. I feel stuck in this rut with no way out. I'm trying to stay calm and wait. It's hard though.
