Gratitude thread

Grateful the 6am wakeup starts next week.

I'm still very grateful for sick leave... and for living close enough to a variety of shops to get any range of premade soups, from the shittiest home brand sludge to premium organic restaurant grade borscht or whatever. And so incredibly grateful for having a car so I can get my gloves without wasting an hour on PT getting re-infected

E: also very grateful to my second workplace for checking in on me and asking if I need any food since they're close by ๐Ÿ˜ญ they're so nice, even the offer makes me feel so much better, connection is vital to health

The free food market had some porterhouse steak, so dinner is going to be yummy.

My new (to me) sewing machine arrived today, and looks in perfect condition.

Grateful for friends who call for a chat. And my fluffy lunatic cat.

Most of today is meetings I can keep the camera off and twiddle my thumbs or something

New client is very very nice and anxious to make sure I feel at home. Duties are to be there to support her and take her to appointments etc. if needed.
At the moment she's having a lie down so I'm sitting on her couch having a coffee.
