6/20/2009 Gratitude

This might sound bad but it is something that I am really grateful for -- I am so glad I am not at my parent's house this weekend. My sister is visiting and I just can't stand to be around her. My reasons are vast and valid but I won't get into them here. Let's just say it is self-preservation on my part to keep my distance. I am grateful to be 1, 000 miles away, in my own home with nothing to do for the day. But I am looking forward to a Summer Solstice meditation class tonight!

I am so grateful I made it through last week's extended travels to family functions! All went smoothly and while I am exhausted, I feel blessed to have been able to be there for it all. But even more so, I am happy to be home. Despite some serious problems thrown at me this past year, my life is good and I need to remind myself of that more often!
