waking up happy


I love it when I wake up happy. Full of joy about the coming day.  For no particular reason.  Thinking of a part of the mass, "waiting in joyful hope..."  It is all good.

I am already bathed, dressed, made-up, and done (as far as hair) and ready to go to work.  I am meeting a sponsee after work to discuss the 7th step.  I am wearing a beaded bracelet she gave me last Christmas.  It is pretty and means so much to me - because she made it for me!

Just an ordinary day in mid-December.  Another sober day to thank God for.  How best to thank Him?  By making the most of this day and being the best I can be - all day long!

Some days I wake up grumpy. Other days, I just let her sleep.

What a great way to be in the day! Thank you for helping mine to be joyful.

It's better to wake up happy than to wake up sad or not wake up at all. Have a great Friday. I've missed your comments.

This post made me smile. You MUST be a morning person.

I love days like that, too. And I don't know about you, but I am not a morning person.
