I am grateful that today I fianlly accepted that I had to stop being anxious over the fact that my old clothes do not fit.........I take an AD that adds pounds.
I am grateful that I cleaned out my closet and bagged up all the clothes I cannot wear and I always donate to the Epilepsy Foundation so they will have some nice things this trip out to pick up.
I am very grateful that I had enough money to go buy some new clothes and now I can quit worrying about the side effect of weight gain and just accept me for who I am.
And I am gratefule to have something appropriate to wear to my 4 year old granddaughter's dance recital. Grandma won't show up in the same pants she has been wearing over and over.
This may sound silly to some but I had a very verbally abusive step Mother who told me I was fat and ugly when I was growing up and some of it is still with me in my mind although I work hard at not believing it anymore. She told me I was stupid too, but I proved her wrong.............. It is the many wonderful little things we need to remember to be grateful for, as well as the big events.
Special Hugs to All who are suffering with disease processes and for the wonderful support shared here in A & P
