Great day to be alive

  1. I get to go to a rock concert down in the Twin Cities with my son tonight.  It is his Christmas present to me.  Looking forward to rocking out with him.
  2. God.  Grateful each day he lets me wake up and enjoy life on this earth.
  3. Friends and family.  So grateful for them.
  4. My Bible.  It has become a more favorite book for me.
  5. Good food.
  6. Great service at church yesterday.
  7. The beautiful sunshine outside.
  8. We are getting rain tomorrow night and Wednesday.  Glad it is not happening tonight.
  9. Waking up sober and nicotine free another day.
  10. Remaining teachable.  Having an open mind to learning other things and getting out of my comfort zone.
  11. My pets.  Jax is getting older and not able to get around like he used to but I love him, even when he has the accidents.  Skeeter, well he is just Skeeter.  A orange fluff ball who prances around our house like he owns it.  I love the little guy.
  12. That I am slowly learning to not let other people’s opinions of me define who I am or who I think I should be.
