What GOOD things happened this year?

She hugs me every afternoon before she heads to work. I will give her an extra squoosh tomorrow, thank you.

If there are broken relationships in your life, try to mend them if you can. I realize it takes two. My sister was a good one for getting mad at people and not speaking to them for years at a time. She never told me why she decided to cut me off, and she would not respond to my efforts to reconcile. Then she died. That's why, when my girl asked if she could come home, I didn't hesitate, of course I said yes. You can't reconcile if you don't talk. Open your heart, your arms, your ears, and love one another. We are not promised a tomorrow. ❤

I agree. For the most part. But some people are like poison. Really bad people. I do not speak to my in laws. My hubby and kid don't either. We tried and tried to be nice but they kept undermining us on our parenting and then it became dangerous for our son. So we had to leave. Everyone that knows them gets screwed by them. And they are wanted for serious legal issues. Best decision I ever made was the day I finally told MIL how I felt. Hubby stood by me the whole time. We kept quiet for so long because they were family. But there comes a point when you have to stick up for yourself and your family. I don't hate them. I am indifferent to them. Hate is still an emotion. I don't want anything bad to happen to them and son and I still pray for them every night. But we will never speak to them again and will not go to their funeral when that time comes. Sorry for the long post!
 
Does anyone else have anything good they want to share? I would hate to see this thread get buried!
I know, me too. I have loved reading all the blessings everyone's had, even in this difficult year.

I'll add some more...
- I finished this semester with all A's
- My high school friends are back in town for Christmas break, so we're going to have a movie night
- This year I'm living with my grandparents and great-grandma. We all had COVID a few weeks ago, and it's actually a pretty big relief now that we've all recovered, because we don't have to worry a whole lot for (hopefully) 3 months whether or not great grandma is going to catch it and if she'll be alright.
- Also, my mom made chocolate pie last night...:celebrate
