Thankfully…
* my daughters are healthy, beautiful, smart, and generally respectful (except when Gwennie pulls down her pants, shows me her little ass and says “Enjoy this!”)
* my kids didn’t ask for a Wii for Christmas! (and here’s hoping they don’t think of it).
* Reg who took me to urgent care today, where I could have gone Wednesday night when I started feeling like I couldn’t breathe, but I decided to wait until today so that I could go to my doctor’s instead of urgent care (my doctor took the day off), where I finally got an antibiotic for my respiratory infection.
* the urgent care nurses did not weigh me (the nurses at the doc’s would have) on the day after Thanksgiving.
* Reg is always on my side. It’s so comforting that I have a spouse with whom I can be completely honest about everything. And he never tells me to “get over it” even when I need to. And he never reminds me of things I say in the moment that I don’t really mean.
* my closest friends understand my current lack of communication because I’ve been in my head a little too much lately, and I’m not feeling like I’m good company.
* many, many online shopping sites are starting to pony up the online coupons and free shipping or both (and yes Crse, the Warner Brothers Harry Potter shop is one of them–I was waiting for it), thus saving me the trouble of real-world shopping.
* my loved ones know that I don’t text or check my cell phone voicemail. They fully accept these communications shortcomings.
* the semester is almost over.
* I know some pretty cool, amazingly and diversely talented people.
* after nine long months, the level of [fake] thyroid hormone in my body is finally normal.
* I am, as of yesterday, ten months cigarette free–the longest I’ve gone without smoking in 20 years (without being pregnant).
* I’m beginning to get over my fear of honestly and truly expressing myself.
* Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix comes out on DVD in 18 days!
