Public Thnx4 Journal

Ich danke meinen Freunden Hannah, Eva, Johannes und Felix, dass sie heute den Abend mit mir verbracht haben. Wir haben Poker gespielt (das erste Mal und auch, dass alle bei mir im Wohnzimmer waren) und es war wahnsinnig toll. Ich war richtig im Jetzt. Ich habe mich so erleichtert und amüsiert gefühlt. Das war echt ein toller Abend.

My teacher, Melissa Huff, has been amazing throughout the semester in my Advanced writing and research class. Her encouragement and writing tips have made the tasks so much more achievable for me.

I read some of the posts in this group and felt a sense of warmth and acceptance even though this is my very first day in the group. I'm so glad I found this. I don't have a lot of friends I can talk to and sometimes feel down about that but I'm already beginning to count my blessings! And there are a lot of them!!!

Sometimes the most random things can uplift my day. Today when reading many of the heartwarming thx4.org comments, one comment in particular made my day. Calvin commented about how he got reunited with his pet stick stickbert after 7 hours.

Scotty, our UPS driver, always remembers my name and has time to say a kind word.

My parents for helping with Charlotte again today while she is online learning. My mom made it easy for me to have time to focus on work.

They hung out with me and we spent time together.

My roommate woke me up very gently from an unintentional nap (i blame exhaustion) and fed me dinner

I went with some friends today after work to go get some food. Once we arrived I was going to pay for the things I wanted when a friend stopped me and told me that they would just cover me. I tired to say that wasn't necessary but they were insistent to pay. I thanked them and the replied that it was no big deal which was nice of them.

Coworker told me about a successful search, because of a cataloging project I'm doing.

My older brother brought in a new addition to the family. As of today 12/1/21 he is a father and I an uncle now. This news brought about a sense of joy. I'm sure our mom would have been proud of him.

I talked and she listened to my weekly health update.

My coworker found out I had taken out a 50,000 mortgage loan so I could receive holistic cancer treatments due to my latest diagnosis of stage IV cancer. She motivated me to create a gofundme page, then proceeded to help me push it out for donations. I was surprised she offered to help be an admin for my page while I was in the hospital for 30 days. Then she donated towards it, along with her brother and gathered more donations from other people some who worked with me and others who didn't know me. I was astonished when folks gave $2000, this was enough to pay back the minimum interest plus give a little towards the principal loan amount for the first couple of months. I didn't have to worry about marketing my page while I was in treatments which was so welcomed. I just focused on my daily treatments.

I have the best coworkers, they all pulled together today to help with NRP.

She had breakfast with me while she was visiting Arizona. We talked about our memories and I felt grateful for the time we spent together in the past and in the current moment.
