Trying on New Roles

Today I am Grateful For ~

• My week alone at a cottage on a lake.
• Divine Guidance.
• Self discovery.
• Finding out that I could absolutely live alone, no problem.
• Seeing Michelle, Bob and Julie last Friday night.
• Breaking the rules Friday by crashing a "closed audition". I believe it was the first time in my whole life that I've ever been asked to leave somewhere! What a rush (after the nauseau passed and my cheeks cooled down).
• Getting to see Michelle and Julie on stage again, always a pleasure!
• The wonderful woman at the laundry mat in Kalkaska who took my clothes from the washer to the drier, folded and hung them for me, and only charging me the cost of the drier). What a wonderful pampered feeling that gave me! While she was finishing my laundry, I went tanning and had my hair shampooed and styled. I think it was the best day of the whole vacation!
• Spending Saturday on a lake down here w/Richard's sister Vicki and her friends.
• Pontoon rides around the lake.
• Richard taking me for a ride on the jet ski: and as promised, he went slowly.
• That I had absolute faith that he wouldn't do anything on purpose to scare me. So, so, so different from years past!
• Setting limits when I needed to and respecting how tired my body was after the long drive and late night on Friday.
• Enjoying the day despite the overcast sky and slight chill.
• Talking to Cole yesterday and sharing some cool stuff back and forth.
• The beautiful painting she gave me that is already in my bedroom even though I'm not ready to hang it.
• How much enjoyment I've already gotten from looking at it. It's very soothing...reminds me of the river near my house.
• Walking to said river yesterday when I was very upset and needed time to cool my head.
• Trusting the Universe to take care of me, and help me take care of myself.
• Weightloss going well...pants that I was extremely uncomfortable in and oozing out the top of are now baggy on me. Woo! Hoo!
• You.
