A gOOd day...



What constitutes a "good day"?

For me it is currently being able to get out of my pj's and pull on my pants
without effort or help...

Being able to reach my toes and nurture my fee with creams...
My poor 'ol neglected feet!

Being relatively pain free... (Pain med's doing their job!)

Being able to actually "DO"
...that which i contemplate

Yes today my mind is feeling hopeful...
and that opens up my worlde!

...And THAT is a good day!

*Thankyou dear ~Universe~ for these insights...
that teach me how to be ~Grateful~ for all the little things

I am grateful that the pain meds are doing their job for you. You are so wise, thank you for sharing with us. Your words are helping me to accept facts and prepare for what is to come.

Dear Vicki, I thought it all would be improving faster, now that you are not doing treatments. Is this still recovery from the treatments?
I am feeling very ignorant.

Angela (((Hugs))) & give your Leanne a (((Hug))) from me too x

Hi Zom X:-) Don't feel bad because you are right! Apparently (according to my Doc) i am a bit of a novelty as my 'side-effects' (To chemo & 'steroids'... for the side-affects) have been quite dramatic (Turned into balloon woman amongst other things!) & are taking sometime to overcome (When i am 'myself' again i will post some past pics) ...i also, a few days ago, 'did my back in' (It's an old injury that flares up now and again) but was quite severe this time... Sighhh was just able to touch ma toes and then my back went!!! X:-/

"Being able to actually "DO"
...that which i contemplate"...isn't this the greatest feeling?!

You're awesome! A huge hug to you, nolly!

NollyPosh, although it is often very difficult to achieve, being grateful is a blessing for the giver and the receiver. We are all 'winners' from your post.
Heartfelt thanks♥

Annie said...

Nolly, I am grateful for people like you who know what is important in life and focus there.
Love you and I am happy for your good days! May you have an abundance of them! xoxo

Go Nolly, it will get better! I love that, being able to DO that which I contemplate. And thank you for making me feel better about taking a day in PJs, snuggling with my Hope and movies. I don't know if I'm drowning or not. I'm not so much worried about it for me...but it feels like I have to perform for everyone else so they don't think I am.

Robin said...

Too many miles separate us (geographically).....but...we are so close in our hearts!!!

Telling you how proud I am of you....how much you inspire me on a daily basis - is just not enough... but it's all I can do - except send you all my strength, my courage, my inspiration and my love.

Always,

♥ Robin ♥

p.s. Can you hear the HOPE in your words? I can! They inspire ME.....

~Love~ You Robin *kisses*

You've probably read Victor Frankl's book about his life in a concentration camp during WWII. A couple of things that struck me so strongly that I've never forgotten them was that (a) the best people in terms of kindness and integrity died, and that (b) the only way to survive was to cherish the little joys that each day brought. I see that you're doing number two, sweetheart. I hold you to my heart, Nollyposh.
