Nope, I didn't prepare some gigantic feast to celebrate all the abundant blessings in my life. In fact, I've been a bit of a "Debbie Downer" or "Negative Nancy" as of late. Folks, I have caught that dreaded disease they call Influenza. Okay, disease isn't the right word. At all. But I surely did NOT feel well. However, when I was "down and out" there were a number of things (and/or people) that I am incredibly grateful for. Here goes (in no particular order):
*My momma (this really is #1!) I called her for sympathy, and she gave it to me!
*Memory foam/my beddy-bye. Wow, it's like sleeping on a cloud!
=>Under this "category" I must say I'm grateful for my own room!
*Canned soup. Can we say Campbell's? Mm-mm GOOD!
*A variety of juices to keep me hydrated. Out with the bad, in with the good.
*Lisa and Brooke. They sympathized and watched out for me and made me see the dr.
*The doctor. He gave me medicine and bed rest. (Hooray for hydrocodone cough syrup!)
*Puffs PLUS Lotion. (It really does make a difference!)
*Reading materials. When I wasn't knocked out on meds, reading helped to pass the time.
*Sweats/comfy clothing.
*My loverly humidifier.
*The Priesthood and my hometeachers for giving me a blessing on Monday night!
*Clean Flicks. Friday and Saturday I watched "Old School" and "Road to Perdition," both quite different, but both excellent. But both rated R. Sad. However, Clean Flicks takes care of that for me; great plots, minus the nastiness that makes it rated R. Tonight, me and the roommates are gonna watch "3:10 to Yuma."
That's all I can think of off the top of my head. But looky here, I have tons to be grateful for, even when I'm on my sickbed! God Bless America!
