Day # 14: I know I said I was going to do “non traditional” things to be grateful for this year, but I want to shout out Joe, who works tirelessly to make sure I can stay home with Joey and who has been my fiercest supporter in pursuing the mental health help I need.
When I asked him if I could go on the retreat I’m on this weekend (praise Jesus for WordPress’s scheduling feature 😅) he didn’t even let me finish asking before saying I could go.
The Liz from 30 extra pounds ago has been screaming that I can’t pull a certain bathing suit off and I’m an idiot for even thinking I could. Hell, even current Liz is terrified she’s going to get made fun of for wearing it.
But not Joe. He’s seen the work I’ve put in, he’s seen the pounds fall off , and he more than willingly gives me the confidence I need while my brain catches up. Even though I can’t quite see the changes to my body yet, I trust him more than my brain because that bitch has proven time and time again that she’s unreliable at best.
And aaaaaalllll that, plus so much more, is why I am grateful for my best friend, my partner in life, my sun moon and stars.
