Grateful Fearless had the same question I did about the literal or figurative wall in NCJ’s post
Grateful for the charm FBL’s friend made him.
Grateful for Aly’s sympathy and kind words on the headache. Can’t seem to totally shake it but at least it’s less acute.
Grateful for some family time yesterday. We went on a drive and then played around in a creek bed for a bit, then went to Starbucks.
Grateful to be granting myself grace for lack of motivation on workouts and life in general.
Grateful to have this group to come to for comfort and hope.

FBL - That's a wonderful reminder.
Aly - Hope hair turned out fine.
Numb - May your head get better as the day goes on. So miserable.
Grateful to be sober during this mess.
Grateful for some warmth & sun, finally.
Grateful for MrHev's consistency.
Grateful for the noisy birds who are kicking up quite a fuss since the feeders are empty.
Love going out to all - we are getting through this & we're one day closer to some sort of normalcy.

Grateful my hair turned out really well. I think I like it better than when the hairdresser does it!
Grateful NC has her horse. I'm sure he is such a comfort to you now.♥

Grateful for Monday and all it will bring! First day furloughed...wish me luck. This, a whole new world to me outside of my daily living in the "COVID-19" (formerly essential employee) workforce.

At the end of the day, I think we'll all be ok. It cannot hurt to be positive.

((Anaya)) Good luck. At the end of the day, or month, or 2020, I think it will all be ok, too.

Grateful for the gift of mental clarity, just for today.

Aly, I prefer the hairdresser doing my hair too! I never know what it’s going to be like when I do it! And the lady who washes my hair....she gives an amazing head massage, you just feel so revitalised after it.

Grateful for the birds outside, their morning chorus brings back some normality to an otherwise upside down world at minute.

Grateful for FBL’s big smile! You made me smile too.

Grateful I’m sober

Grateful for all of you

Thanks, Hev! We're having a rare humidish day here and my hair is curly and frizzy. Sometimes it reminds me of Robert Plant in his LZ days! Lol.
Grateful that I have some things I should do today, vacuuming, go to the store. Even though I slept really well, I still feel kind of tired today, so grateful there is no time limit. I will be grateful when I'm done and over with this gabapentin. I probably have another month or two of still dealing with it. Seems like a long time sometimes.
NL, hoping your headache is subsiding and not still with you. ♥
Grateful for all of you so much. Thank you for being here. Grateful for your wonderful, uplifting grats.
Like Hev and another person I've talked to, digging out old books that I haven't read in a long time and enjoying them. Grateful our cable provider is giving us tons of free movies during this time, so that is awesome too. I rewatched Bohemian Rhapsody the other day. Nice distraction from anxiety.
Love, peace and good health to everyone here. ♥♥♥
