*TRY THIS * The Gratitude Thread - a "Change Thinking" technique

I need to try this today...feeling hyper anxious..

I'm grateful for: 

• central heating (it's freezing outside)
• i already made today's dinner yesterday so I don't have to cook tonight
• jigsaw puzzles
• all this lockdown means I have spent less cash

1) The support of my family after the difficulties I’ve put them through.

2) Having a nice (ish) flat in a nice (ish) town

3) The fact that nobody hates me on here yet (at least I don’t think they do)

Family

Health

Shelter

My own sense of purpose

1. The rain and flood risks have stopped
2. I still have a job
3. I am so grateful for my little garden, so I can isolate without going mad. 

Grateful for how people are pulling together, amid a crisis.

Also, grateful for Amazon; as it was the only place I could get pasta during the whole melarchy. (I also ordered a new duvet there)

Getting the Bob Dylan ballad about JFK's assassination yesterday evening on iTunes.

Grateful for using my mobile phone as a hotspot for my computer; should the WiFi grind to a halt.

1.  Im alive.
2.  I have people who care about me.
3.  I have things to look forward to.

- Google and Youtube (!!)

- my work

I think it's the route.  Same every day..

ahhh the internet ... bliss

u're not peddling bard enough :)

Funny, I do the opposite, every day I spend the bike ride home doing a manic sort of brain dump of all the c**p that happened at work. A sort of mental sluice gate between the work life and the home life. 

Grateful for;

1. Learning to negotiate Dublin Airport while visiting a friend from America at a hotel.

2. Slimming World.

3. Getting home safely.

4. My Sainsbury's groceries arriving after I returned home.

5. The virtual keyboard on my MacBook Pro- my r key is broken.

6. Having a washing machine and tumble dryer at home.

7. The new car park at Portadown train station.

8. The evening being mild.

9. The fundraiser I attended last Thursday night.

10. The internet.

i love my wee bike as well - doing the mechanics and riding it every day. I find i cant think all anything else when riding my bike. sort of like a type of "no thinking" meditation.

I'm grateful for my bicycle  and my balance.

Those two beauts are gonna get me home now
