five (really) good things (on a day where i really need 'em)

patches of blue



today was a day.
a bit like an alexander kind of day.
a bit like a day that started out as a day trying to drive me to the breaking point.
a bit like a day ending on a deep breath.

it is on a day like today that i do really try to find just a few things to make me remember all the good things...

like:

being with millie again after two weeks apart.

spending a second night in my very own bed in my very own home after spending 23 of the last 39 nights in other beds.

spending a bit of time with captain jack harkness and the doctor.

having a nice young man arrive at our home and say, "this is not a problem" (to what seemed like the beginning of one of those horrible weekend sci-fi movies but was really scary noise coming from within the wall in the living room that was causing me to have a borderline full-blown panic attack but was really wasps that had invaded us while we were gone and created a wee bit of major havoc).

remembering the importance of taking care of one another.

*****

think about the good things in your life...in this moment...then, share them. you know, if you want to.
