How about a fun game of S.M.E.T. this morning !! For newbies it stands for...

So Much Easier To...

tie my shoes
fit in any chair anywhere
get into a public bathroom stall
find clothes that fit
stand up for myself
hug people and get my arms all the way around them and have their arms all the way around me!!

So Much Easier To..

Run across a BIG parking lot to roll up your car windows when there are SUDDEN Tx thunderstorms...Before I would have had to just let the car seats get flooded

Good Morning!!

Cross my legs under the table,
Sit Indian style for longer periods of time on the floor
Sit Indian style in a chair
Climb up on a step stool
Get hugs where their arms go all the way around!!!

Blessings,

Nina

SMET......paint my toenails......fit into the bathtub and get out without feeling like I needed help getting out. SMET....run up stairs........climb stairs.......exercise ( who exercised b4 WLS ) LOL buy clothes and not leave a store every time I went shopping in tears because either nothing fit or if it did it looked like it should belong to my grandmother.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

My favorite is:
Having a lap for my grandbaby to sit in instead of a stomach to sit on!

That is a wonderful SMET! I love cuddling the grands although only the youngest is still small enough to still sit in my lap is soon will be too big for it!!

I still catch myself checking the way out between tables in a restaurant, but then I pick a 'skinny' way out and take it because 'now' I can! LOL

Most of the above, my knees and hip won't let me sit anywhere Indian fashion or cross my legs...but I could if those joints would bend right! My latest discovery is my lap...I love having one! No kids to sit there but the fur children enjoy it and it's nice to have a place for magazines, books and anything else that will fit there!
