Dare2Diva is Grateful

I just can't believe how lucky I am to be honest. I sent a message out to the special peeps in my life about my 'holiday' and the messages of support have been flooding in. This was completely unexpected. I mean that. I am just shocked and amazed and I know I am very blessed. I was supposed to go out today but I got as far as the pharmacy because of a change in plan which was a blessing in disguise. I had a great snooze which was very much needed so tomorrow will be spent running around like a mad thing but that is fine. Universe 1) I am grateful for my pretty restful sleep last night. 2) I am grateful that I watched the movie Burlesque this morning in my warm bed. Awesome movie. 3) I am grateful for the amazing friends I have, met or yet to meet. 4) I am grateful that plans changed today and that I was able to have a snooze this afternoon. 5) I am grateful my sister dropped around a package that I ordered from the UK. Underwear is so hard to get for me that doesn

Woke up earlier than any sparrow would fart this morning because my father needed to be taken to the hospital for a test at 6:30am. Half way there he tells me he should have taken the 8am start when he had the chance. Bastard! Anyway, I got to work at 6:50 which was great. Nice and quiet to get a lot of work done. Then he rest of the afternoon was spent checking out our shit hole as it is now named, new residence and making complaints about it, voicing opinions to upper management on deaf ears. Now the unions are involved which makes it even more hilarious. I got a call back from the hospital today confirming my admission next Friday. The only family I have told is my younger sister. She knows and accepts I am nutty as a fruit cake but the rest can't don't won't. Anyway, it will be a 3 week stint so hopefully after that I will be well on my way to a normal life for a while. Universe 1) I am grateful I was able to get out of bed early this morning without too much effort.

Today was D day. Dentist day for my top lot of fillings. $1900 later and my teeth are pain free for the first time in months which is great. Drugs didn't work as well this time so I woke up during the fillings and I got some pain so they had to give me more and then topped up the locals. All was good. My sister and little nephew took me today which was grand and I have slept like crazy which has been good. Universe 1) I am grateful I woke up early enough to have some breakfast and a cup of tea before fasting. 2) I am grateful my sister was able to take me to my dentist appointment and drive me home. It was nice spending time with her even if I was stoned off my tree on the way home. 3) I am grateful for the chocolate sundae I enjoyed paid free today. I haven't been able to drink hot coffee or tea or have anything remotely cold not to mention ice cream for years so I enjoyed this a lot 4) I am grateful I have had a lot of sleep today and the pain of my mouth isn't too

WOke up early again and after a crap sleep I felt great. I got to work at a cracker of a time and got working. Had everything up to date by 9:30 which kind of sucks really because that means I have to fill my days in some how. Today was filled in quite nicely however. Meetings to discuss a move and things that haven't been thought of and yet we are moving in 1-2 weeks! The facilities we are moving to has no bathrooms on one side so we have to leave the office, go out to the foyer, into another office just to pee and seriously, with my erratic bathroom habits, that could pose a problem. Frenchy is starting a second revolution in conjunction with the other managers 1 up from me and my level and below are backing it completely. Hilarious. I then went up the mountains to be entertained by a 3&4yr old regarding a rouge mouse. Universe 1) I am grateful that the lack of sleep isn't affecting me too much. 2) I am grateful I am being really efficient at work at the moment. 3) I

My brain is still working overtime but at least these thoughts are quite fun and feel good although I think I am reading into signs that aren't there, it doesn't stop the thoughts being fun. Sure, inappropriate, but still fun. Universe 1) I am grateful I woke up really early this morning and didn't feel tired so I got to work early 2) I am grateful my brain can take me on journey's that are really nice even if I can't really tell if my thoughts are real or if i am reading into things way too much. 3) I am grateful to her my older sister and her family are all safe after the storm last night brought down 6 large trees in her yard, took out power, demolished the fence and trapped my nice and her son in their flat because of the power lines and trees. 4) I am grateful I made the phone call to the hospital today. I will be getting a call from the intake Dr tomorrow. Step 2 done. The final step will actually be walking in the door. 5) I am grateful I am still able

Well. I did it. I have made the first step to checking into the psychotic equivalent of a 5 star resort. Instead of cocktails and parties, I have medication and group therapy. Woohoo! I have a referral. My GP is pleased and I feel a little more relaxed knowing that I will be able to check in and get myself sorted ON MY TERMS. Universe 1) I am grateful that I chose to get a coffee before work because with all the rain, it took me close on 2hrs. 2) I am grateful that the rain seemed to die down considerably when I needed to go to and from my car and office. 3) I am grateful I took my lunch to work, a ham and cheese toasted sandwich, firstly because I didn't have to go out in the rain and secondly because it tasted so fab. 4) I am grateful I have plenty of additional hours up my sleeve so when i left work early today I don't have to make up the time. 5) I am grateful that I took the plunge and got my referral for the nut house. I have grateful I have a GP that I can trust.

My 13yr old niece stayed over last night and she wasn't any trouble at all and my little nephew came over in the morning while my sister took her son and some friends out for his birthday. It doesn't matter how horrible I am, 'my kids' still love me and don't take any notice of the mean me. My little nephew asked me to read and book and I was just not in the mood but so I said my eyes were sore. He kissed my glasses and said 'all better' and asked me to ready his book now. He also said for me to see Dr 'Doogie' (he said his first name but just to keep things simple) because he would fix my cough and also make me happy. Smart kid. Lets hope so. Universe 1) I am grateful I was able to finish watching a movie which I have been wanting to watch for a while all in my warm bed. 2) I am grateful I wasn't as agitated today as I have been 3) I am grateful I finally finished my wrap and it looks really great. Because of the lack of 1 additional ball o
