Thursday, my physical therapist told me that I light up the room when I walk in and make the time happy and fun.

Nothing as of yet but I've got my fingers crossed....

My little holiday tree.

It’s a 36-inch tall gold tree in a gold glitter pot. The branches are as thin as twigs. I bought a string of battery-powered lights for it.

It’s perfect and is just adorable.

Mom and I scored a sweet 6' fresh tree with stand for 10 bucks. Yay!

Chad, scoring a great deal like this even made me smile....

Bèsame* · 12-15-2019, 05:09 PM

Smiling...

I have good friends!

Cheesy Lifetime Christmas movies.

I accidentally fell asleep on the couch and napped, without having first locked Monte in his bedroom turned cage. When I woke around 11 last night I immediately panicked at the thought of what he might have done to the computer cords or Christmas light strings while I was zonked out. However nada, nothing, not a chew mark anywhere. What a relief!

See this proves he really can behave so for him choosing not to is truly optional. Now I can see correcting him isn't cruelty but rather a case of tough love.

I got to make real changes in a couple of peoples lives that will have lasting impact. One was to finance (through a grant) a few months worth of bus passes for an elderly woman displaced through domestic violence so that she can get to her doctors appointments and go grocery shopping and just get out when she wants to.

The second was to be able to move a young woman out from living in her car to living inside where it is safe and warm.

Both are people who will take those bridges and make more of themselves because of having it.

It is really good when I can help make tangible positive change. So much of what I do has no end to it. When I can get from problem to solution in one bang. Major win.

Yup, no doubt easygoing! And I bet, of all the gifts you give this holiday season, those two will be the very best......

I went to PT this morning because it is my happy place. No one including PT understood why I would want go there on my birthday but to me it is a happy place. The place that is fun and full of encouragement and caring.

When I walked in the door every single person wished me a happy birthday. I said where is the music? They said, what do you want to hear? I said Donna Summer! The queen of disco and then it played. My heart was warm and happy.

We danced, laughed, and worked my biceps. We are on strength training now because I am 95% healed. We did in 4 months what normally takes 6 months to a year.

I am still smiling.

Because my favorite niece and her husband drove to see me and it took them 3 hours in the snow when they got so far south from them right through the snow belt. I havent seen them since my sister passed but she brought me some things my sister wanted me to have, sooo happy, pictures and such. Also my sister left a surprise cheque for me. A LARGE cheque. I would rather have her back but I had no idea. She has 3 kids and 4 grand kids and 4 ggrand kids. I would tear it up just for one more lunch or dinner with her but it made me smile to see my niece and her husband.

GeorgiaMa'am · 12-19-2019, 06:59 PM

Watching a Rankin-Bass Christmas TV show from my childhood. I think it's named "Santa Claus is Coming To Town", the one about where the young Kris Kringle takes toys to the town where the Burgermeister has made having toys illegal. It's probably my favorite Christmas TV show after "Rudolph".

A witty rep note that actually made me laugh out loud............

Bèsame* · 12-21-2019, 09:44 PM

Smiling..

Watching kids. They have so much energy and not a care in the world.

Also, today was a baby reveal. The dad is a basketball coach. So the reveal was a slam dunk with a balloon filled with BLUE powder. There are babies everywhere!!

A holiday card in the mail from someone who thinks I'm funny.
