I Am Grateful

Today I stayed home all day and didn't do much of anything. I was hurting very much again today, so just wasn't up to doing much. Most of the day was spent in bed, and the rest in my big armchair in the living room, not doing much of anything. I did get a bit of reading done though.

In the morning, Cal stopped by, he's one of the guys that fixed my pellet stove awhile back. I'd called since then and told them I was still having problems with it, so he came by today and made a couple small adjustments on it for me. Now it's working very well again.

Dan dropped by, but didn't stay long and didn't work on the floor at all. I'm actually glad as I just wasn't good company and I could not have dealt with helping him work on the floor today. At least, not without the help of drugs... and lots of them. I try not to take pain meds any more than I have to, so today I just suffered through it.

This evening I watched "Dirty Dancing" on TV. It's been so many years since I last saw it that it was like I'd never seen it before. I sure enjoyed it. Then I did some of the homework for the classes I'm taking. 35 minutes in meditation and prayer. I still have homework to do before I go to sleep, and I can do that laying down in a bit.

I am grateful that my life style allows me to stay home and do nothing when I need to
