Thankful Thursday: September 13th

Hello!

Thank you to all who have been checking in on me. On Tuesday I had not one by THREE MRI’s done- neck, back and brain. As of yet, no news yet from the various doctors. Hopefully we’ll get some answers in the next couple of days. Later on today, I have a food panel test (which I’ve never done before), to see if something I ate may have caused all of this. Still not back to normal, but overall, we’re seeing improvements in the right direction.

Despite all of this, I’m reminded to count my blessings. Here’s my Thankful Thursday list for this week:

  • Salted Carmel Mochas. I’m so happy they’re back at Starbucks! Makes even a crummy morning a little brighter.
  • Boots. It’s been chilly when I leave in the mornings, so I’ve been wearing my different boots and forgot how much I love them. (They’re SO much more comfortable than heels!)  
  • Massage Therapy. I had my first session yesterday and I can already feel some tension released and my back stretched a little more. It’ll be a while, but I’m so grateful for the relief of some pressure off my neck and shoulders.
  • Such amazing and caring parents who are doing everything they can for me right now. I’m so very blessed!
  • YOU. My blog readers are so incredibly sweet. I’ve received some cards and gifts and am blown away by your giving hearts.

Well, my dear blog friends, that’s it for me. What are YOU thankful for this week? It doesn’t matter if they’re small, big, silly or random things- let’s just take time to count our blessings. :)

  1. I’m thankful for a new day~my sweet girlies who are my shopping buddies~and the fresh grace I receive daily! Let us know how it goes~I pray that they have wisdom and knowledge with the results! Blessings~

  3. Ohh goodness, I’m thankful that this week is almost over. It just hasn’t been a very good one to me, but looking on the brighter side and hoping that next week will be better! I’m also thankful that I had a little surprise on Tuesday morning…I’ve been really bummed (even more than I let myself believe I am) about something and it brought a smile to my face and made what was already starting to be a crapy week better :)

  4. Paulina, I’m just catching up today on what’s been going on in your life in the past few weeks. So sorry to hear of the pain you are in; So thankful to God for His hand of protection on you and will pray that He will guide those seeking a cause, finding a treatment and bringing you relief. It can be frustrating when answers take so long to get, but be patient in waiting and rest.

    What am I thankful for this week? Looks like I may have a work from home job secured after months of wondering if it would ever transpire. It has been all in His Timing, so all the fretting I was doing profitted nothing. I’ll still be able to home educate and watch my new granddaughter. A perfect match.

  5. I’m thankful for your blog. I just came across it the other day. I sure hope that all turns out well for you. I LOVE LOVE LOVE my boots too. It’s still a little warm here, but I’m counting down the days to sweater and boot weather

    Have a wonderful day

  6. Two months ago, I lost a friend to breast cancer. She was only 33. Her husband sent out an update yesterday. I am so thankful for the healing that he and his three children (6 years old and under) have experienced. My heart hurts so much for him and his children. I feel like I can rest a little easier.

  7. I’m thankful for the tap water where I live. It taste sooo good!

  8. I see people everyday of all ages and positions in life, and yesterday I spent some time with an 85-year old who lost her husband recently, was SO crabby and depressed, and basically ungrateful for the help I was trying to give her and didn’t give a hoot that when she just walked in (without calling ahead) and demanded to be seen immediately that she basically made me work through lunch and the better part of the afternoon without so much as an acknowledgement of the inconvenience. It made me feel like it was a ROTTEN end to a not-so-ideal week… but now that I’m a little removed from it, I’m thankful that I really can’t understand or even imagine being where she is emotionally right now. I have no idea what it’s like to lose someone that I love. I can be thankful and aware that there is a lot of suffering out there, and maybe I helped in a small way, and maybe she’s in so much pain right now that she’s not even capable of showing gratitude for the little things that you and I see and enjoy around us every day… like salted mochas :-). And, I’m thankful that I have family local to me that I can spend time with today… as we travel to Scrapfest :-). Hope things are going better for you and the testing and results have given (or will give) you some piece of mind!

  9. Oh girl, I’m sorry you’re having health issues – praying for you now!
    Love this thankful list :)
