GiST #42

This is no small thing but I wanted to mention this grace: I have a wonderful husband who is willing to examine issues he's got and work through them. Both of us are dealing with anger. Therapy is very painful and change is hard, but we are getting better, millimeter by millimeter.

1. The split pea soup I made is so thick, just the way I love it, and each day, it seems to taste better.
2. One of our cats, Cubby, has a real trust issue. It's taken him a long time to let us touch him or pet him. Now he's begun to get onto my lap and snuggle a little. It feels so good to have won his trust!
3. I wrote my granddaughter a letter and watched the mailman pick it up today. Soon it will reach her.
4. Having bariatric surgery means I can't over eat. I'm learning new ways to cope with stress
5. With Windows Media Player, I can make playlists hours long. Then I can turn on the music and just enjoy without having to worry about changing the CD
