I am grateful:
1) that I got to experience being around a group of people I didn't know and feeling comfortable and enjoying myself.
2) that I can always trust certain friends to take things to the next level :D
3) to feel acknowledged and accepted by L's friends.
4) that L cares enough to ask important questions and to listen to the answers.
5) that I have made noticeable progress in the past 3 months.
6) that I had a really good therapy session today.
7) for all the opportunities I am getting to learn and grow, and the supportive environment to grow in.
8) for pats on the back.
9) for friends who show up when they say they will, and who let me know when they won't. Also, for friends who take care of themselves.
10) for my car, but also grateful that I have the resources to replace it.
11) that the concert was wonderful, and well received.
12) for Shakti Rising.
13) for my boss and my supervisor.
14) that I don't have to pay for storage, and that my relationship with my ex is good.
15) for my spirituality, and the awareness I am privileged to have of my path.
16) for appropriate boundaries with my coworkers.
17) that I got to sleep in Saturday morning!
18) for J's company on the phone as I drove home (so I didn't fall asleep).
Saturday morning was a wonderful lazy morning, after the party on Friday. Then it was off to our performance, which went well, after which I headed north. I spoke with my brother briefly-- he and his girlfriend are sending joint Christmas cards, wow. Note to self: LA has Saturday evening traffic, and rain makes SoCal drivers into complete idiots (i.e. leave more time on Saturday and in the rain). We got to the potluck, and it was lovely. I was very happy to spend time with our hosts, and we were the last folks to leave around *cough*'o'clock.
Sunday morning was nice, lounged about with L and K, then took the kids to breakfast/lunch. I had hoped to spend some time with the other K in North LA county, but that didn't work out, so K and I went to a Christmas bazaar. There were lots of people that K introduced me to, but I found it overstimulating, so we left after an hour and a half or so. We then went to dinner before I drove K home, then got on the road myself. I was exhausted, but thanks to J, I managed to stay awake until I got home. It had been too long since we talked, so I was glad to epak with her. Thanks, J! It was a good weekend, but man was it hard to get out of bed this morning...
