Today I am grateful for:

Though I am disappointed that our family is disrupted right now by the whole POA debacle (my brother potentially making a power grab), I'm very grateful my sister S is looking into this situation. I'm very tired of family drama, I've spent far too much of my life worried/upset about things happening to/actions of family members, but sometimes I've been able to make things better by being concerned, so I don't want to tune out. I DO need to learn how to shut off my thoughts, though, because they're eating me alive.

Getting the lawn mowed. It started raining again tonight, so I'm glad I mowed while I could.

Getting a bit of my stuff upstairs out of the boxes to have a look at it. I'm getting pretty overwhelmed by my possessions again. Yet, in the moment, while I'm looking at it, I think "ah yes! Nice to see this again!", even though collectively, it's just too much stuff.

In a back-handed way, I'm grateful to have found one or two plastic bags with wool items in them that have wool moths. I keep seeing "one moth" here and there, and I've been religiously checking my clothes since I had some issues last summer, but these isolated bags at least might mean I'm tracking down hot spots, and dealing with them.

Thursday:

Finally getting the vaccine from the vet, and directly to the riding barn for River.

Having a good ride on River in the outdoor arena. It was a nice evening for it.

Doing a nice watercolor painting.
