We braved the odds and took our toddler to a restaurant for brunch this morning to celebrate my husband's birthday. We ordered cappuccino and juice, and plates of istrian Truffle eggs and French toast. Our usually restless toddler was shockingly compliant and chill with being sat at rhe table occupied with his toys and tablet.

I got a brief glimpse into our lives pre-parenthood, when we never had to think twice about eating out or doing whatever whenever, no regard for wake windows and nap times. Although we will always be a family unit, maybe someday the couple unit can also make a return.

A gentleman at wawa handed me a receipt for my purchase.

I always forget to ask for one and I need it for my banking.

CR went over my 2 route lists with me over the cell because I was short NYTs and needed to know why.

I was able to decide whether I was shorted papers or if I made a mistake since I didn't have a copy of today's lists.

I called my health insurance to change my PCP because I'm extremely unhappy with my current doctor's facility and personnel.

This benefited me because the doctor I once had and have been searching for, was the PCP offered up by the ins. company. Now, i know i will be in great hands when it comes to my health.

When he thanked me I felt ..... I'm not sure how I felt.

Browsing the public board and appreciated Lens post. I'm glad you're here, Len. I hope you share some gentle moments of gratitude. :)

I feel encouraged and connected, even though I never have or will meet Len, an internet stranger.

I made fresh caprese salad with plump ripe tomatoes, aromatic basil and nubs of mozzarella from the farmers market. I drizzled it with a heavy pour of olive oil and it now sits in the fridge marinating. I'll have it for dinner bruschetta style

It was wholesome to rinse and slice the produce and savor the textures and smells.

The ideal low key vacation morning - we woke up naturally, had a light coffee and croissant and went to the farmers market where we perused the wooden carts of produce, local honey and olive oils. I bought a bundle of Adriatic flowers in shades of ivory, violet, and sunny yellow, as well as a handful of fragrant basil and several bulging ripe tomatoes. We had lunch al fresco at a restaurant near the market, where we ordered forest mushrooms with couscous and thyme roasted veggies, and bowls of creamy risotto and gnocchi local to the region. Shockingly, the toddler cooperated and behaved but opted for raisins instead of the gnocchi we got him, lol.

Now I have an idyllic memory of exactly what I pictured from our Croatian vacation.

I’m a teacher. I get to teach kids important stuff.
My need for the spirit to be with me helps me to make the right choices.

I’m in a profession I can love.

To all the people who have recently posted here. I'm having a rough day and was looking for ways to reconnect and reground. Came across this site and browsed through the public journal. Each posts that you all submitted, made a difference in my day.

Each of what you wrote made me smile, and softened my heart.
I'm grateful for you all.

I went to my clinician for lower back pain and she recommended I see her chiropractor. I had never gone to a chiropractor before and was a little skeptical, but after a few weeks my pain was all gone! I am not only grateful for my chiropractor AND my physician who recommended her ^.^

I met the woman who is now my chiropractor by recommendation of another physician. My physician's recommendation helped me get the care I desperately needed.

Delicate crumbly vanilla kiflice cookies which look like a handful of crescent moons I snagged for 1 euro (hellz yeah). Pair amazingly with black Turkish coffee, and they melt in the mouth.

Who doesn't love cookies
