    I was told today that I am cancer free and need no follow ups and that is awesome.
    Excellent news! I am so happy for you and grateful for your successful treatment!
  • I am grateful for Hylian, had so much fun playing games with Hylian yesterday and this morning. Big hug for Hylian for resurrecting the games!

    I feel so free, It's been such a difficult year for us all, so very much to deal with, but here we are. I am grateful for the very wonderful people here on this forum, we can deal with anything together.❤

    Hugs to Teach! ❤

    I also feel grateful for this forum, and honestly for forums for autistic people in general. I don't think I'd be doing as well as I am socially and emotionally without them. Due to them I've been able to meet a lot of cool, kind, and understanding people, including everyone here. :D
  • This morning I could hear a green heron clucking and then it flew up in front of me (I was in the screened porch) and perched on a bamboo stem. Sat there a bit and took off again. I am grateful for the birds.

    I love hearing about all of the birds in your area. Green herons are so cool!

    I love hearing about your wonderful environment also. Wishing you good health.

  • I'm thankful that today is my 20th day of sobriety.
  • I feel good. Haven't had any heart palpitations in ages. 
  • HylianHylian Citizen, Mentor
    ^ I'm glad for both of you! :)
  • ^ Wow, what a great day!

     Congratulations on the sobriety !!

    And getting rid of heart palpitations is also good.

    I am grateful there is so much goodness in this day!

    Malo licked my arm while I was cleaning his enclosure up a bit. :') I'm thankful that he likes me putting my hands in his space, since he could choose to nip me at any time.
  • I found some wild guavas today, red, ripe and tasty.

    That's a very big milestone, Well done! One day at a time.❤
  • I am drinking my morning coffee and enjoying reading about Malo and blazes' guavas. Our guavas are pale green/yellow. Red guavas? I would love to try them.

    I am grateful for feeling less fragmented and the sense of self-acceptance that is slowly forming.

    Thank you. Day 26. I'm not going to drink today!
  • I am slowly coming out of the fragmented state I have been in. I seem to be less reactive and more assertive. I have fleeting moments of being very happy in my own company and  a lot of laughing out loud. My therapist has stood by me as much as if he were my  own devoted son. My own son is not really around much.  I remind myself to search for the little sparks of light within the hardships of life. There are many if I remember to look for them.
  • My son left for University and I couldn't be there 😔. Not only he didn't get upset about it, but he actually came here to stay with me for a few days.

    I'm so grateful for my wife and kids.
  • Peace and quiet in my neck of the woods.

    It's very sweet that he came to stay with you for a bit! Your kids sound very well-adjusted.
  • Thank you Hylian, we're very close and this is another thing I'm grateful for :)

    Boston Red Sox beat Tampa Bay Ray's to move on to the ALCS series.

    For those from Europe and not familiar with American Baseball the "ALCS" would be the semi-final matches to the championship.

    @Bender am delighted to read your good news 😁
