Upset stomach this morning. I don’t if it’s my stomach or my thoughts but I will swim to shore with gratitude keeping me buoyant.

Grateful for a toasted muffin, a cup of tea  and some applesauce.

Read a book in one sitting about an award winning swimmer who develops heart problems and comes back to health.

I found myself shaking my head in agreement as she reframed negative thoughts into positive.

She used laughter, good attitude,improved eating and exercise to keep from drowning.

She surrounded herself with people who loved her.

Grateful to see shore. A light shines leading me on.

I’m still determined not to participate in Inauguration. TV will be off tomorrow.

Cautioned K not to have joy taken from her. I will  listen to my own advice.

Giving myself a pep talk and prayers for all including me!
