This and That - #200-204

Today is one of those hard days to find what I am thankful for.  I am tired and achy and realized today that by the very nature of the words degenerative disease, I am likely never going to be better than I am today.  That is a hard thing to swallow.  On Friday, I received word that the government has finally decided I am disabled.  This news was initially received with enthusiasm but it has begun to sink in that I am truly disabled.  It's not like I needed someone to tell me this.  I already knew it, but there is something about being told this by someone else that makes it more real.  

Today I had an appointment and then sat downstairs while M watched the little girls. I am thankful for that although I don't know how to put into words exactly what I am thankful for. (#200) Then I enjoyed a quiet evening dozing on the couch while I was home alone. (#201) M came home excited about Mary Kay possibilities. (#202) A came home talking about skating and other things. (#203) I am so very thankful that both my girls still value my opinion and just like to tell me about the moments in their days. (#204)

Here are a few things I saw on fb in the past few days...

How to dye eggs naturally.


I followed this one all the way back to the fb page it was originally posted on, Real Food Whole Health, but since I can't pin from fb, I am sharing it here.

While I was looking for the eggs, I stumbled across this.
