1. I'm feeling strong enough to think for myself & argue (in a nice way) with my therapist if I don't agree with his assessment of my situation.
2. I get to work at home for the next few days, maybe in my jammies.
3. DS & my grand puppy came to visit tonight. They are always good for my soul.

Thurs Nov 3

1. Finally got a big load of laundry done (I've been without my own facility for a while, and have been dragging my heels, but all clean clothes tonight!)

2. Maria agreed to return my 2 video rentals, so I didn't have to go out tonight.

3. I found a "missing piece" of literature on my computer so that I WON'T have to retype it to send on to some friends.

Congrats to those who have resisted Halloween candy!

hi everyone. i haven't posted for about six days.

so, so much to tell. i'll just go with the last 24 hours (since it's been "so long"):
-------------------

1. last night dh and i went to The Gap in Hollywood (highland and hollywood blvd, just a few miles from where we live). positive thing about it...is that dh had to buy one size bigger jeans. well, that's positive news because he quit smoking several months ago (except on friday nights).

2. we then went to Musso and Franks on Hollywood Blvd. an old, old (86 year old restaurant in Hollywood.

3. talked to a waiter who has worked there for 35 years (another waiter worked for 50 years, but we didn't speak to him). great conversation w/our waiter, 35 year "veteran". going to buy "Hollywood Remebered" from bookstore and have him sign it...he has a photo in the book.

-----------
people here don't know how much i enjoy learning about the history of places i live near (meaning at the time i live there.) so, the above #3 post, really is a positive for me. :>)

1. Ed took our leftover Halloween candy to work for his office.

2. My migraine finally went away.

3. I managed to get to the park with Herc today. Shortly after we began walking, we had a lovely encounter with Carl, a 6-month-old white lab the size of a dwarf pony--who romped with Herc and generously shared his soaked belly with me!

1. a couple driving very slowly by the house was asked if they wanted to see it. they got all excited and spent an hour looking at it. tomorrow is the open house, so maybe they'll come back or feel a need to put in an offer in case someone else likes it.

2. i cleaned the fridge. yes, that is a positive thing. i hate to clean it and love when it's clean!

3. my listing has not been thrown off of craigslist since i relisted it in the geographical area i first wanted. tabby knocks on wood.


ouch!

Good luck with Craigslist, Tabbyking! Here in the East, I got knocked off once for "job offering" (I was trying to hire someone) not being in the right category; when I relisted, it remained for full time.

Yeaaaaa!!! Spitfire!!! Keep us posted.

Here goes my three positives for Friday:

1. Finally received an email to reschedule an appointment I was so embarrassed to have missed.
(Had been thinking I'd never hear from the person again.)

2. Coming here to find other positives to brighten my day.

3. Finding an item I need (but that has been discontinued) at a local store....they must have found a few more "in the back"!

1. Yesterday there was a possibility that $126,000.00 in estate taxes were paid unnecessarily. Today I found out they were really due. Whew!

2. Yesterday I misplaced a check for $9,000+ at work, spent most of the day searching for it. It had taken 10 months to get the check. Today I found the check and promptly deposited it.

3. It's Friday!

Finally I have something good to talk about:

1. I thought I would have to move back to DC. But I found out today that I don't. Yay!

2. Dh's mom was admitted to the hospital yesterday with what we thought were heart problems or a mild heart attack. Well, through all of the tests, there is nothing wrong. They think it's a reaction to her migraine medicine. Which is much better than a heart problem if you ask me.

3. It's not raining tonight, after a cold, windy pour the last few days.

Leaving at least one positive for the day Saturday before taking off from the computer to get stuff done...actually thought of TWO!
1. Weather is beautiful, crisp fall day with temperature just right; one of those perfect "10"s!
2. Frustrated yesterday in finding stepladder I wanted to buy, but today I called another store and it LOOKS like they have it (keep fingers crossed!)....

Saturday, followup to number #2 positive and adding number #3:

Followup to #2 above--the new store I tried DID have the stepladder I was looking for (one with "project"/paint shelf)!

3. Started sorting out a table that I hadn't touched in quite a while!

Pamy, loved what you said re note from your son :-)!!!!

1. 5 couples saw our house and love it. let's hope someone loves it enough to make an offer!
2. a friend came and watched football with me and we had good snacks and good wine and a great visit. i don't get to see her enough, so it was wonderful!
3. people in the house we bought won't be moving out on nov 11 as planned. good part is, they will have to pay us 33 bucks a day from the 12th on!
since we can't move yet, anyway, it will help us with the payments on that house :-)

Sunday's 3 positives:

1. Put out a little extra birdfeed I had in a friend's birdfeeder and was treated to an all-day pagaent of bluejays, juncos, nuthatches, chickadees, sparrows, mourning doves, and one downy woodpecker!

2. Friend Michael helped me put up a new lamp in my bathroom and a new clock on my wall; also helped me resolve a smoke detector problem!

3. Received photos of Cousin Margaret and her trip to Vegas (mainly pictures of landscape, not casinos!)

1. The City of Savannah is canceling my parking ticket from Friday because I protested the meter was inaccurate and they checked it and agreed!

2. Delta is refunding my non-refundable tickets because they canceled my flights, rebooked me on different days and didn't even bother to tell me.

3. My contractor fixed the gate his crew clobbered without any complaint and in better condition than it was before.

Monday's 3 positives:

1. In the wee hours of morning, I took on the challenge of a difficult task and completed the first part. Wish me luck; I get to do Part II tonight...I am praying for confidence and peace in action.

2. I discovered a beautiful bouquet that my aunt had left at my mother's graveside in remembrance of Mom's birthday; I plucked a flower or two to bring home to put by my kitchen sink. I can see them from here as I type and they bring a glow to a potentially sad time.

3. I felt at peace and empowered during the mid-afternoon hours.

hope everyone else is finding something positive about their day!~Beth

Tuesday's three positives:

1. Part II of my difficult task took longer than expected, but was completed by 4:30 AM late Tuesday (actually early Wednesday morning). I am proud of my courage and tenacity, if tired and wondering where I go from here...

2. Had a chance for a bit of chit-chat with my nice downstairs neighbors about the birds we are mutually feeding.

3. Friend Michael gave me a pep talk Tuesday morning even though he had very little time to do so...helped me make a decision...

oh, and I took a long great hot shower!

1. The Red Wings play tonight! WOOHOO!

2. I gave away one of our puppies to two little kids who are tickled to have a puppy, and a mom who is even happier. He looks just like a puppy she had when she was a girl. (One down...seven more to go!)

3. I just got the most amazing phone call from my husband. He called to see how I was doing, and then told me that the son of a friend of ours was arrested and is in jail. He's been on a downward spiral the last couple of years, lost his job, his wife left him, got involved in drugs, etc. It was very sad, but not totally unexpected news. Hubby told me that he had stopped by the county jail yesterday.

"Why?", I asked.

"To see if he needed anything. I wanted to make sure that someone was looking out for him, just in case there was no one else."

Then he told me that they told him that the guy had been transferred to the jail in the next county. Hubby has business in that town today, so he said that he will stop by there later.

Whatever did I do to deserve such a man.

1. I got caught up on my sleep today.

2. I got caught up on Laguna Beach ... love it!

3. I've stopped coughing. Now I just need to get rid of this darn cold.
