Gratiwednesday

Okay, I know it's supposed to be Gratituesday, but I'm a day late.  So, you now have...............

GRATIWEDNESDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get over it bitches!!!! HAHA!!!! Just kidding, you're not bitches......well except you, and you.....and definitely you.

Okay I've had a shit-ass week thus far and I needed some laughs and perspective.  Hence the purpose of our post today ladies and germs. 

1.  I'm grateful for the ability to apologize for my mistakes and to be able to let go of the results.  Sometimes you don't get the reaction you want when you make your apologies and that's hard.  You can't control the other person's reaction and to be able to let go of that outcome and put it in the hands of my Higher Power is such a gift.  The thing to remember is that I've done my part - I've made the apology, my guilt is off of my shoulders and anything else is in God's hands.

2.  Small surprise jokes made by the universe at my expense.  I have to back up a bit.  I've had quite a bit of repressed anger this week, friends have even suggested me getting a nerf bat to beat things with to get my rage out that's how bad it's been.  I had a few minutes yesterday to kill before my PT appointment and decided to run into Deep Roots Market to look for some decently priced Peppermint essential oil.  I also wanted to see if they had any blends with lavender and peppermint which is my new favorite thing!  I did find a lavender/peppermind blend that is HEAVENLY and smells just marvelous and guess what it is called?  Anger Management!  LOL!!!!  I laughed my ass off there right in the store, I know the other people thought I was nuts.  Yes I bought it too!

3.  To be at odds with someone and still love them just as much as ever.  Sometimes arguments happen.  They can be to the point where you go for a few days not able to communicate with that person at all.  BUT......
It never ever diminishes the love you have in your heart for them.

4.  Having quiet time in my car on the way to work.  I only have about 10 minutes, and I normally take them for granted but this week it has become my time to talk to God.  I say the serenity prayer and then just talk about whatever.  I pray for calm and serenity for my day and for me to seek his will in whatever I do that day.  It calms my mind for the day ahead and puts me in a good frame of mind for the things I have to face throughout the day.
