Thursday:

• Sunshine!!
• The knowledge that some child support is coming my way. An extremely meager amount by any standards, and less than a percent of what is owed overall, and who knows when it will actually get through the system to me, but it’s something, and it’s on its way.
  … I just realized something …
• The child support payment being enough to pay for the humidifier that I was thankful for last week, but didn’t (at the time) have a clue how the money spent on it was going to get replaced. (Thank you, God!)

Friday:

• Sunshine!!
• The honor that I’m given that a friend who is as guarded as they are special opens up and confides in me, and lets me see the real them.
• The cold air blowing that made working so miserable and inhibited my recovery getting blocked. (It was unbearable even when in good health.) Yay.

Saturday:

• The ex taking the kids, overnight, for the 4th week in a row!
• The opportunity to engage and give dignity to a man who was probably homeless, when he’d been digging through trash.
• My first workout since I first got sick about a month ago.
• The chance to reach out to a friend in despair, and show them that they’re cared about.

Sunday:

• The opportunity I took to get involved again personally with others in the congregation.

Monday:

• God’s providence which allows me to bless another, even on a really tight budget.

Tuesday:

• Waking up early and rested enough, with just enough last-minute willpower to work out again after two days of soreness from previous workout, and the strong desire to say in bed. It felt great.
• My mom’s availability to babysit for me when the sitter is sick.
• The know-how to troubleshoot and fix my own wireless network.
• Little boys who love to sleep with their mommas!

Wednesday:

• The water still working, as it was due for shut-off yesterday and I had forgotten to call and make arrangements.
• Hopeful news received by a friend who really needed it. Good things coming their way, hopefully very soon.
• The offer to do some side-work for income which is very needed.
• Coming home to a hot, home-cooked meal on the table.
