Right now I am sad. It's been a pretty good day, but long, and I think we need some gratitude.
1. I had my room to myself the whole week and
2. It's clean for once.
3. I hung some of my paintings and I even gave a little love to one that I did myself that I keep but I'm never sure if I like it or not.
4. I did a craft! It didn't turn out exactly how I wanted but it's pretty good and I like it.
5. The boys were out of the house for most of the day and I got some peace and quiet. I love them but they constantly demand attention.
6. Changed my bedsheets.
7. Planty my potted plant is thriving.
8. Caleb and Miriam are coming home!!
9. Got to see a little vid of my high school friends who I love but I never see anymore. (Lovely but also the cause of the sadness.)
10. I watched some cooking videos today which is one of my favorite things.

I think gratitude is a good cure for these things. Sometimes seeing my high school friends out doing things together dregs up some of my old feelings of self consciousness and inadequacy, and somehow at the same time I just plain miss them. Someday I'll be able to let go but for now I'll try to not be sad and look forward not back.
