There have been times there’s barely room for me in my bed, but no more.
I’m grateful for my bed, where I’m heading soon. I’m grateful that I have a bed, under a roof, of a house, that I own. So many have none of those things. Grateful that no matter how happy or sad the day, it’s so comfortable that I almost always fall asleep quickly, and sleep through the night. I’m grateful that I get plenty of sleep these days, that I’m not in too much pain or emotional distress to sleep, that I don’t go to bed hungry.
Topaz is the only one left who comes upstairs to bed. Stellar can’t do stairs anymore. I miss him, but grateful there’s more room for me. And grateful that little Topaz picked up the slack when her brother died, and now comes running to cuddle every night when I climb under the covers.
For five years, until last fall, I could count on the little black cat to come hug my arm every bedtime.
I’m grateful for the terrific view from my bed…
… which I usually only see at sunrise…
I’m grateful for every sunrise, each day a precious gift that comes but once.
I love bed too. Mine is heated if I wish it to be and very comfy. Every time you post things you’re grateful for it makes me think of the things for which I am grateful. Inspiring. Love you
thanks, cousin melinda. i’m glad my posts inspire you, that is my hope, for you and anyone who reads them, to find gratitude for simple and unremarkable things 🙂 xoxo
