Thankful Thursday

thankful Pictures, Images and Photos

Today I am thankful.....

-that my daughter's cardiologist cleared her for some non-heart related surgery that she's had to put off due to recurring Pericarditis; a very painful inflammation of the tissue around the heart. Her recent echocardiogram shows all clear right now!

-for my youngest son, Bubba...who remarkably is 22 years old today! I can't tell you how many times he cheated death as a child/teen. The boy has no fear and apparently a minimal amount of common sense as well!

-for my Al-Anon sponsor, who is a perfect match and we're beginning the 4th and 5th steps, starting tonight!

-I was "eligible" to upgrade my cell phone today and got Tam and I the new Samsung Propel, which has a "qwerty" keyboard, big screen, internet access and navigation capabilities! Woooo-hooo!

-for getting a new SIM card for my "old" phone and passing it on to Abbie since she lost hers about a month ago and her line wasn't eligible yet for an upgrade!

-that Abbie was extremely grateful for her "new" telephone! That's progress!!

  7. Grateful kids always make me smile. I've seen many people "make it" without common sense. Having a good mom probably helped. Glad your daughter was cleared for the needed surgery.
    I came over from Katie's blog; she gave you an award. ~Mary

  11. Nice. I once read that it is impossible for the seeds of depression (not clinical, obviously) to grow on a thankful heart.
