Grateful for a full moon that is giving me energy this time instead of draining me.

Oh man the full moon is making me crazy this time! I feel like I should go out and howl or something, lol. Wish I knew how to better direct that energy...
All the crazy customers are coming out of the wood work too...YIKES!

Today I am very grateful that I did not drink yesterday. DH has been in an awful mood these days (very stressful for him at work as of late) and the kids were all wound up. If I had been drinking can you imagine the fuel that would have added to our tense little house?

I am grateful AGAIN that I did not drink yesterday because today I woke up feeling all out of sorts...can you imagine a hang over on top of that? *sighs thankfully!*

I am grateful that hubby is starting 2 weeks of much needed holidays today.

I am grateful that I have an office to 'hole' up in today between customers

Have a great Friday everyone

Sunday mornings in the past - hungover/still drunk, shaking, sick, and terrified (used to be the norm for years).

vs

This morning - well rested, laughs with my wife, a good cup of coffee, prayers and meditation.



Gotta love it! Grateful.
