There's no place like home
I finally got up the energy to start an exercise program. I found my stomach muscles again after doing a bunch of scrunches yesterday. When you hit my age, that is a very good feeling.

I'm so very thankful for a brief surprising visit from a friend.... we've drifted, even tho she was my bridesmaid 2.5yrs ago and lives around the corner.... things changed when I became injured and unable to go over to her place all the time (she does home daycare ).

Anyways, we've begun to sort our friendship out, and apologise for not being very good friends, not being there when needed, etc.

She surprised me at lunch time, showing up at my door with lunch from Timmys.

It was on a day I needed it (some serious emotional crap going on), a wonderfully pleasant surprise, and it made me smile.

I don't wanna jinx myself, but I had an awesome bit of serendipity yesterday. If anyof you are friends with me on Facebook, you'd have seen my numerous posts about it...

basically: ran into owner of store, in front of store. chatted. they're hiring. I told him my 'credentials' he seemed interested. I practically skipped home. Brought my resume back. they're interviewing next week. I'd be able to walk to work.

Soooo.... yeah... I'm hoping and praying and all that jazz...

I'm positive because friends still like me even when I'm having my own stoopid pity party :p

Every day is a gift from God. I am thankful to be in my sixties, take no medicine and have no pain. I am blessed with wonderful husband who spoils me all the time. Life is good.

I am so thankful for an amazing friend that makes me realize how alone in my journey with Gary I used to be. Wait - that doesn't sound right
The point is I'm not alone in it anymore and I am so very, very thankful for that.


Also, it is a beautiful sunny day - and we are in the 40s and it's not snowing!


Of course that means a LOT of mud..... but I guess that'd be for a different thread.

I'm thankful that my TV Writing teacher is being understanding of the pain I've been dealing with. I've now missed two crucial classes and he emailed me this morning letting me know we'll work something out to make up for it. This terms class is more of a group writing thing (sitcoms are team written), so I've missed out on the latest stages... but he'll work with me for some kind of project to make up... some teachers are good... he's one of them...

I'm happy its finally a low pain day for me
Unfortunately it made for a very unproductive weekend but, still wasn't horrible... Today is a good day.

Now here's hoping DH is over the worst of his sinus crap and lets me sleep tonight

I'm thankful, once again, for an amazing friend that helped see me through a rough time with Gary's illness.


I'm also thankful to have wonderful, understanding people in my life that have the same interests I do and are helping help kitties.

I'm happy that my school term is nearly over, my film for one class is done, and the teacher for my other one has given me permission to do make up work at the last minute due to my back pain... I'll survive this term after all!!

Well this is something in the same area. A week ago I received a pea counting starter set.You put a handful of dry peas in your left pocket and during the day whenever something makes you happy you transfer 1 pea from the left to the right pocket.Then you´ll know and appreciate small happinesses.I liked the idea.I was happy in the morning when I received a mail from a friend, when the sun came out and especially when the battery of my wheelchair didn´t give up and I didn´t get stuck in the woods with my doggy.
All the best start counting

I'm so happy that it's a beautiful day and that I was able to take a quick walk around outside during my lunch break at work.

I'm also so happy that my feral kitty Patches is learning how to play!

I just learned my rent is going down! I've lived at the same place for 25 years and the same man owns the building. He really takes good care of the property and, most importantly, allows cats and small dogs without charging a massive security deposit.
This news sure made my day!
