A New Day

Today is a beautiful day. The rain is over and I had the best night's sleep I've had since I got sick. You know how great you feel when you wake up and realize you feel fantastic. Well that's the way I felt this morning. Even Bosco could tell the difference. You may think I'm crazy but I sing to the dog every morning as we come out of the bedroom. He loves it and dances along with me as we come into the kitchen for his morning goodies. This last week has not been a singing week and I knew it bothered him. But this morning we sang all the way to the goodies and he just danced along. There's nothing better than being sick and getting better. You never appreciate feeling good more.

I had forgotten how wonderful it is having the internet at home. All the little things you look up that you don't think about. I have been having toilet problems. My toilet would keep running. I knew enough to check out things like making sure that little rubbery thing in the bottom had a good seal and mine did. I knew it was the floater but I wasn't sure exactly how to adjust it. Well this morning I decided to look it up and found it was just a little screw. I marched right in there with the screwdriver and fixed it! I am so awesome!! A few more times on line and I could become a plumber. Well actually I couldn't because I could never wear my jeans so that they showed my crack when I bent over. That's just not lady like.

Yesterday afternoon my family reminded me that they loved me. There's nothing worse than feeling sick and alone. Out of the blue Missy, Terry and Serif came over so I could have a hug or two. It was so sweet. Serif is so cudely and I got lots of hugs and kisses. She's probaby what cured me. It was so sweet of them and it felt good to just visit a little. They were on their way to a friend's husband's surprise party. There was just no way I was up to going but it was sweet of them to try to get me to go along with them. Then, after they left, I had a call from Patti. Turns out my son has been worried about me so she called to see if there was anything they could do for me. I have such a sweet thoughtful family. I have to remember that when I start feeling alone.

Right now the sun is shining and I'm waiting for Missy and Serif to get ready to go out shopping. Sunday is always our big day. I'm sitting at my dining room table, enjoying a cup of coffee and listening to the oldies. What more can you ask for?
