100 Days of Gratitude
Comments
-
Grateful to get in a good walk today and work up a sweat after being sidelined by a nasty asthma attack two weeks ago.
-
Grateful for the inspirational quotes I sometimes come across:
-
Aww mommy, sorry you're having a rough day. {{{gentle hugs}}}
It's official, I'm not going deaf. I'm just really, really good at ignoring people. lol
-
What was that you said Red
Today I am extremely grateful that my friend came through the night and today is up flirting with the nurses and eating, a complete reversal of his status last night, I stopped by the hospital on my way home and he was sitting up enjoying the World Series complaining about hospital food it was wondeful
-
Thanx Red and everyone else for your kind thoughts!
Grateful for a supportive hubby!
-
Grateful for new laptop my otherone just crashed and more importantly that my foot surgery is over hate the recovery, but I did manage to shower this am and almost no discomfort! Yeah -

-
Nel, glad the surgery is over & you are in the recovery mode!
I'm grateful that my friend's DH made homemade waffles for us ladies whom she had invited over for a brunch.
-
10/29- crazy busy lately and grateful to be able to keep up with it, I think. Finished a class tonight.
-
Glad you're on the road to recovery Nel.
Grateful my friends DH was released from the hospital, considering two nights ago he was in dire straights today is a glorious gratitude kind of day.
-
Grateful today that I seem to have crawled out of the basement of my mind. Hope is once again rearing it's lovely head.
Nel, glad your surgery was successful and that you are almost pain-free.
Cheryl, what a turnaround for your friends DH. It's wonderful.
Ruth, inspirational quotes are so... inspiring. sorry, but I couldn't think of a better word.
Jazzy, yay to finishing your course.
Onco, correspondence?
-
Continue to be grateful for a relatively easy recovery from foot surgery. Post Op today and all is well! Off all pain killers. Surgeon says neuropathy assists in not feeling any pain . So a yay for neuropathy, I guess! A back handed benefit of chemotherapy. -
Grateful for a painless puncture today to collect blood for testing so it can be determined why I continue to have leg craps every night during my sleep.
-
Grateful that I don't have to cook tonight (we are going to a potluck dinner and I am bringing dessert....which I never make for just us so it was kind of fun).

honey, you could also try eating a banana every day and/or drinking a glass of tonic water (with or without the gin
), both also can help with leg cramps.
-
10/31- I am grateful for the fun kids and adults have on Halloween.
-
Grateful that my visit with BS went well!

Onco - beautiful!
Grateful this am for the house to myself, a foot that is healing and most importantly - my son's friend had a seizure here last night - never had one before. My son handled himself so maturely and his friend will be OK (Thank goodness) He has a medical issue that will need to be taken care of, but got transferred to the right hospital. Glad I was home with foot healing to support my son,he would have done great, but still glad I was here
Happy November 1st!

Onco and Ruth, I have a bar of unscented ivory under my sheet and am drinking tonic water, but since I had my blood test, have had 2 nights cramp-free. My changes are stretching legs before bedtime and adding magnesium at night to night time meds. Must be working. Since I did not receive a call from my MO's office, I must be okay. Thanks for all the helpful suggestions.
-
Yikes Nel, that was scary!
Honey, glad that the legs are behaving.
Friday: Our favorite Chinese restaurant shut down & relocated in a town 30 miles away (dispute with landlord & better business opportunity), last night we were so hungry for their food, we jumped in the car & drove over & am grateful for our very delicious dinner & a chance to visit with the family that owns the restaurant, who are delightful people.
Today: grateful that I was able to some semi-reasonable plane tickets, and we are booked to visit my sister's family on the East Coast in December
-
Grateful we finally turned the heat on in the house this week.
-
Today I am grateful that I got to see all the little kidlings in their costumes before heading out to an Alice Cooper concert last night. The kids costumes were great and Alice can still rock the house. My hubby got a golf hat signed by Alice - Rick's very pleased as he admires him in the Pro-Am Golf Classic. Yes Alice Cooper golfs - quite well actually.
-
Grateful today to find a Christmas present I was asked for on sale - $64.99 down to $39.99. A $25 savings I can always appreciate.
Nel, good for your son for keeping a cool head in the face of an emergency. This is a good thing to know about our children.
Ruth, I did the same sort of drive for very good and decently priced Chinese food, so I can understand you getting in the car and going. A bonus that you got to spend some time with the owners.
Honey I was going to suggest magnesium as that is what my DD (the nurse) told me, but it didn't work for me so I didn't. I am glad that it worked for you.
Mommy, we turned our heat on a couple weeks ago. Yesterday, like Onco, we woke up to snow and cold winds!
Have a nice relaxing Sunday everyone.

Grateful for that extra hour of sleep!
-
LOl Ruth, I didn't get that extra sleep. I was up at my usual time wondering why am I getting out of bed?
-
Me either Red. My cat came up and started meowing at 5 am because he wanted mommy up!
-
Grateful for another wonderful Sunday at my little church down the street which I lovingly refer to as" the little church with the big heart" because of its emphasis on outreach giving in the community.
