Gratitude week 148

I’m grateful for Ashley’s family letting the blogging community know of her passing. I feel a lot of sadness over her loss. I feel thankful her family provided us with closure and let us know how much comfort blogging provided her in her life. There have been many times over the years bloggers have just disappeared and just left us guessing in worry.
Our friends had their annual Halloween party over the weekend. We also had our annual sailing banquet which we also dressed up for. It was pleasant to visit with friends we don’t see often. I also love to dress in costume. That was probably my favorite part of being involved with community theater, dressing up and being someone else for awhile. Although someone did ask me if I was dressed up as a pregnant porn star. Definitely not the look I was going for. Paul and I dressed up in vintage 70’s disco outfits.
My husband started his month long detox diet. I’m grateful he takes his health seriously.
My son-in-law came back home yesterday after spending two weeks out of state for work.
I finished painting my future office.
We will be renting a dumpster this week to pull out the carpeting and get rid of junk.
I had a good session with my therapist.
Paul and I did some volunteer work. I enjoy helping other people and getting out of my own problems for awhile.
I have been sleeping pretty good lately.
We had a game night with Will and Arabella. We had a really good visit.
