Today,

- I am grateful for my mom, who has been there for me so many times in the last few months.

-I am grateful that I have a place to sleep that's not my actual house. This silly little commute I do gives me an excuse to spend time with my parents every single day, either over breakfast or some evening activity, rather than isolate myself. Isolation was my initial instinct when H left, and I think I might have really crashed had I continued on that path.

- I am grateful for the times when I can forget about my whole M and just enjoy the moment.
