You did it again Barb!  you seem to pick just the right one each and every day!  Thank you for this.

Today I am thankful for...

1.   Today is Friday!  I have so much paperwork to do and housecleaning this weekend.

2.   That today is an easy day for me as I could not do another day like the previous 4.

3.  Flexibility.

 

That is me in a nutshell today.  Hey did I just call myself a Nut?  WEll it takes one to know one!

Today I am thankful:

1. for the wonderful autumn season. I love the changing seasons.
2.  for my life.  I am going to live my life.
3.  for bringing friends, family, and even enemies into my life... my experiences make me who I am. Good, bad, or regular. I accept them and move on.
4.  for my ability to join friends at the LB marathon. I am really looking foward to walking the 5k. To think I had my surgery just 2 months ago and I would never had even entertained the thought before.  Sooo......
5. for my surgery. For the 2nd chance I was given at life. I did a lot prior to surgery, but I just do so much more, since. I feel like a different person, even though I know I am not.
6. for the friendship I had and the memories I shared with Esther. May she be reunited with her son, and finally be at peace. For as much as my heart aches and I will miss her, I know she is in a better place. I love you, Esther! Godspeed.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Dear God,
Today I am thankful for.........

1. A husband who loves me and has been supportive through my recovery from surgery even though I had not been the nicest person when frustrated and in pain.

2. Finally feeling good 11 days post op.

3. My children who make me laugh and give me the encouragement to do this.

Hang in there, it will get better, each day is easier, and it's ok you are cranky right now....you have been through alot.

As for me being thankful,

For the fact that I was able to surprise a friend yesterday with a gift that I know she loves and to hear how happy she was.

For Dougie, who at the age of 67 is still a Mr. I can do anything as long as it makes my wife happy, guy!  I am so blessed with the best.

For my friends, who know how I am, my moods and all, and still love me!

Love to all, Diane

Good Morning Barb, and all the Cali Peeps!  TGIF!! I hope everyone is doing well.  I had to look at what time it was to see if it was still morning!!! Its been a busy couple of days! 

Today, I am thankful for

1.  that its been a busy couple of days and now the weekend is here!
2.  that my doctor's appts went well and they were amazed, and have encouraged me to reach for amazing goals that are just incredible to me and I just know Im going to achieve them!
3. that tomorrow is my bariatric center's support group meeting and I totally look forward to this one each month!
4. that the memory card for my mother's gift finally came and we can give her a new camera this weekend for her trip to Italy! We literally saved our pennies all year and cashed them in to buy it!  Its amazing how much you can save by saving pennies and loose change!
5. for this WLS blessing.  This morning I was overwhelmed by how far Ive come and where Im going and to think this is really happening to me.. that Im making it happen.. is a feeling beyond words and I am so thankful!!!

Love & Hugs!
