Aly, I am always thankful you're there for your Mom, even when she's being difficult. Memory loss can be so hard on all those involved, you are a blessing in any care you can give.
My little camping tent is set up with a reclining cot, a flannel bag for insulation, a 15 degree mummy bag for warmth, and a small flannel blanket that I use as a rug. Oh, and a small flickering lantern for ambience I'm grateful for my set-up!
Grateful for more security training and they fed us yummy Ziggy's pizza.
Grateful to get some blinds put up at my brother's place so he can let some sunshine in.
Grateful to get a training planning session started at work, and grateful my coworker handles making the Power Point presentation.

Ops missed last night. Took my nights meds early and got groggy before I could remember to post.
Holdfast if you need to, push forward when you can. I want the best for my friends here. This site, your company. and a plan of action are keeping me comfortably clean/sober :
Grateful -
- me kitty
- how to read behind the headlines in the news.
- a cozy bed to lay my head.
Cop some good Z's folks.

Thank you so much Astro! I am praying for your brother and you too. You are a good and decent person.
I am posting early. I just got back from several hours at DMV. I forgot my appointment yesterday and blew it off so I remembered about 11 this morning and drove down there and got it all done before my bday tomorrow. I had until the 20th to get it done. Now I am grateful for my temp license and the new one coming in the mail. I'm not sure why CA DMV is so awful/crowded and expensive. The money is supposed to go to fixing the roads when every where you go there are pot holes.
I am grateful that is over with. Phew. At least I sat next to a guy who was waiting for the same thing as I was. He was nice. When I get bored, I start chatting with people. Some are nice, some aren't. He was nice and getting unsettled too from waiting.
My sister is going to cook for me tomorrow and come by for my birthday, which will be nice. She is going to cut my mom's hair. Although the older I get, the less I'm into my birthdays.
Grateful for all of you BGs.
Alpine and Zen and Astro, hope you all sleep well.
Have a wonderful evening all. Pleasant Dreams. Love and peace to all.
