Good morning! A quiet morning here, after a wonderful night of cooking, and watching movies back-to-back with granddaughter Emma. Going to bed late and rising later. I love these times. I love the laughter, the talks and fun. I love sharing the love of books! Emma is writing a story, and I am illustrating it with her. She is doing a great job writing! We play out scenarios being different characters to develop personalities and ideas. She is researching it and now has a writing program which will help her think out story telling. She found it and I bought it for her. I love who she is now, and I love watching her become. The move so I am here was a very good one! Life is richer. I love being a girlfriend for Emma!

There is a pile of dishes to do in the sink and piles of clutter as a reminder. Emma is still sleeping. Today the laptop I got her will come. She will be able to write for sure now! This will be exciting! For me? I have bought grounding sheets for the bed. They have silver in them. We will see. The reviews are they work well.

I will read more today from Andrew Loomis. While it is quiet, just the birds singing outside. A wonderful sunny day. Perhaps the kids will get in the pool.

Tomorrow Mom has off for the 4th of July. The kids are excited. I am not sure of their plans. But there is a beach where there will be fireworks.

Other thoughts.

I have been thinking a lot about the thoughts that came up for me when younger and how they affected my whole day. They affected my happiness. The stacked up as all pros and cons do. If I had not gone with every dam thought that came up, if I had not dissected it all day long… However, personality. Being in my 20’s and 30’s I allowed this habit. The mind predicted what I wanted, and I was stuck in a loop. The only way I found to break the habit was to do something different to change the subject on myself. I laugh now as one comes up that has not popped up in some time. And I think I let go of that mind! I am not going there now. I feel wiser at this point in life. That cloud that was over my head, the feelings when something “bad” happened do not come along with the thoughts streaming all day. They do not color the world I am in now. I became tired of thinking like that. Hashing and rehashing old hurts. I watched Happiness For No Reason. This simply confirmed what I had finally learned. Thoughts are just thoughts, our bodies respond, emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually. And there we are. But we can choose happiness! I love feeling warmth in my heart, and goodness, joy after years of turbulence.

Well, on with the day. And best wishes! Pejj
