Being thankful

Today I am thankful for feeling better. You don't realize how much being sick effects you, until you are sick. And then, its unfortunate because after you get better, you forget about how wonderful it feels NOT to be sick anymore. Why is that anyway? I'm not sure. All I know is that I haven't felt good in days and I'm all of a sudden feeling better. Its so wonderful! I am thankful for my health.... today. I have SOOOO many medical problems that it is not funny. So when I get sick, I really feel bad. It's just awful! With all the medicines and pills out there, you would think there would be a cure for the common cold by now. Nope, not so much. Actually, I had flu-like symptoms but I feel wonderful right now so I'm thinking its gone. Whew!
I am so very thankful for everything I have. Especially my two fabulous dogs! They are the best dogs ever. Today when I came home for lunch, I let them outside as usual and they ran around and played. Then I let them back in and they came upstairs with me while I ate my lunch. I started to rinse out my dish and clean up the kitchen and then both my dogs ran downstairs. I finished cleaning, put on my purse, grabbed my keys and went downstairs to find both my dogs in their kennels waiting. I didn't even say anything but they knew I was going back to work. That was so cool! I gave them each a treat and left for work. I am so fortunate to be blessed with these wonderful dogs!

Hey Y'all

Sorry it's been a while. I've become pre-occupied with the Twilight books and with my new semester of school starting. I keep reminding myself...only a year and a half left 'til my degree... and that keeps me going. On the other hand, those Twilight books are awesome! At first, I just wanted to finish New Moon before seeing the movie in November. I feel like I was speed-reading the rest. I'm now on the last book, Breaking Dawn, and I don't want to stop reading. I want to find out what happens right now. If you've never read them, I suggest you do. If you liked the movie, (I did), then you will LOVE the books. Everyone told me that the books are better than the movie, even though the movie is really good. I thought, o-k. But I didn't know and after reading, yes they are great. It's a whole other world in there and I can't wait to find out what happens next!
With all this book reading stuff going on...my precious shows are getting pushed aside. I mean its already Wednesday night and I'll probably be calling it a night pretty soon and yet I haven't watched Melrose Place yet. Ugh!! And I'm leaving to go out of town so I don't have much time. Unless, of course, I just get caught up once I come back to town. Hmmmm... that will be an ENTIRE DAY of watching shows..that'll be interesting. Now if only I could get my husband to SAVE those shows for me. He has a "trigger finger" issue...he LOVES to press delete. It just makes him happy. Wish me luck!!
Good night & thanks for reading,
SS
