    @Kasa2103 So many! I think about 10 at the moment :) 
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    I snuggled up with my rabbit teddy bear earlier this morning. 

    Then when I went downstairs I snuggled one of my cats.

    They are so difficult at times though. At least with cats you can leave them at home with food and water. You can't with dogs because they need walking. Cats can go out on their own.
