Always Sunni

 I can’t wait for Thanksgiving. (I can’t even believe that I said that…another Tiffany story.)  I will be able to see my daughter, son –in- law, and my beautiful grandson.  They haven’t been to visit because the both have been sick.   So I look forward to both my husband and daughter cooking together and the joy the day will bring to us. I also glad that we will be together to remember Tiffany and our good and bad memories of this holiday. They are staying over so we will have lots of time together.

I am thankful for still being here…the year has gone by slower than molasses and faster than a car race at times but I am still here…there was a time at the beginning to the year that I did not know if that would be possible or not….

I am thankful for my family, friends, and even strangers that have supported me through the good and the bad times.  Dinners, treats, surprises of comfortable clothing, bracelets, earrings, angels, and even a blue moon have made my days better.  Cheerful cards, emails, phone calls of encouraging and kind words, thoughts, and prayers plus listening ears and eyes have kept me going.

I am thankful for fantastic doctors.  I am so glad that I have been referred to such intelligent and kind doctors.  All the health care people that have been right along my side have made a difference in my battle.  I feel honored that I have people in my life that offer their expertise and at the same time listen to my needs and concerns to help me move forward.

I am thankful that my body is feeling better.  My taste buds and nose are working better so I am able to enjoy food especially treats again.  I can’t believe that I can walk up and down the school hallway and keep up with the classroom line or walk up and down the stairs at home without getting out of breath.  I am enjoying reading, my crafts, and my music again since my senses are not so stressed out.

I am thankful that a new year is just around the corner.  I can look forward to so much like working in my garden, getting involved with art, or just plain feel like laughing again.  I am ready  can keep making new memories and traditions as my darling husband and I  share these holidays and all the days to come with our new grandson.

I am thankful for a successful surgery and great news this past week. 

I am thankful that I am closer to the news of the pathology reports and that I can be still waiting…
