Three Weeks

Today is three weeks since my surgery. So much has happened! It feels so good to be here at this stage of recovery. I think it's time for another list of things I am thankful for this week (in addition to everything I've already mentioned before ;) -

• Lovely talks and walks with friends 
• The meals that continue to be provided, so excellent (I'm feeling very spoiled)
• Ice and pillows and moo-moo's (for you, Robin ;)
• My mother's health improvement during this week
• Grandchildren who have an incredibly sweet and smart mother who knows just the thing to entertain them and, in the process, make Grandma's day
• Chocolate covered strawberries and the good friend who provided them
• Weekend getaways
• Days and times where I get to 'pause' 
• The kindness that comes from so many different and sometimes unexpected sources
• A wonderful God who heals, sustains and strengthens me
• Gentle Hugs :)
• My wonderful husband and breakfast in bed
• Facebook and email and the loving messages they facilitate delivery of

I had a very nice break from most things cancer related today. A lovely afternoon with my special friend Ev who made it over to my place with a beautiful, freshly baked salmon, gluten-free sausages from the Farmer's Market and a large bowl of fresh raw vegetables as a side.

During our walk we came up with a couple of more PAWS -
People are watching - shrug it off
People are watching - small stuff shouldn't be sweated

Best Day Ever (that was for you Steph ;)

Take care, everyone
