Obstacles don’t have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don’t turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it

Good Thursday Morning Cali Friends, what are you thankful for today?

Today I am thankful for...

1.  Helping my mother-in-law prepare to get my father-in-law home in a couple of weeks.  We sure did accomplish a lot in her house yesterday.

2.  The love and support of my friends on OH and my family.  Incredible I say!!

3.  For having my RNY.

OK your turn, what are you thankful for today?

good morning, barb,

today I am thankful:

That I will be able to say good-bye to a very close friend, as they don't expect her to survive through the day.

that I woke up this morning after a horrible night.

I'm sorry but my list is short today. Have a good day.

Hi Michelle
I'm so sorry you are about to lose a good friend.  Hopefully, you were able to spend some time with her and say what needed to be said.  Please be comforted by the fact she will be in a much better place and she is out of suffering and pain. If only it was as easy for those left behind...I pray you find peace of mind thru prayer.

Thank you Barb, I really needed that one today!  It is so true!

Today I am thankful for:

My husband who keeps me grounded and is so supportive.

That I can spend the day with my grandkids.

For my life in general.

Hi Barb and all,

I like the Jordan quote. I've turned around too many times!!

Today I am thankful for;

1. The weekend is close by
2. I am not overly busy today at work
3. I have a business lunch meeting that's at a restaurant that has truly healthy food that goes well with RNY.

I am also nervous about a conversation I am going to have with my mom about me going out of town overnight sometime next month. She's going through chemotherapy and doesn't want me to go out of town for any length of time.  She has friends and her niece in town that are all willing to help her, but she really only wants me to help.  Hopefully I don't walk away with huge feelings of guilt.
