    I laughed so hard I cried. Laughter is the best medicine.

      Still taking a "break" BUT I finally after a year of playing.... I won HQ. I swear I have never been so excited about 50 cents in my life. My boyfriend thought I was crazy for screaming..... but I have been playing this evil mobile app for over a year and never won.

      Hope everyone has a good week. I'll post how my new neuro was next week.

          Gratitudes

          Friday
          - I called my sister to wish her happy birthday. We talked for a hour.

          Saturday
          - I volunteered (just for one shift) to be a judge at a high school debate tournament today.
          - A retired contractor and his son volunteered to helpy hubby fix the Formica on one of our countertops; no charge.
          (A young contractor with a new business installed them a few months ago. We ended up with big bubbles on the them. He closed his business and quit returning phone calls.)
          ... Hubby also figured out a simpler method that will likely work to fix the larger countertop.

            Gratitudes for Sunday

            1. I feel good now. Earlier, I had upset stomach and horrible back pain for about 4 hours.

            Hubby made me some licorice tea to soothe my stomach. And I soaked for a long time in a nice warm bath with Epsom salts. Helped so-o-o much!

            2. Skyped with daughter and grandsons this evening.

                Gratitudes

                Monday
                1. I went to a meet and greet for possible new governor. Had a good conversation with ex-governor, who campaigned with her.

                Tuesday
                1.. The election is over!

                2. The election results in my state had some positives and some negatives, but the governor won! She's going to turn this state around.
                And the race is still too close to call on a state house reprenstative so there is still a chance.

                3. Went out for supper with my son -- burger and awesome potato salad at a local place.

                  I am so grateful to have a couple of days without burning pain.

                  I am so grateful for COFFEE and DARK CHOCOLATE. It helps me to relax.

                    Grateful for problem solving

                    I am so grateful for still being able to think of new ways to complete chores\tasks. I can still take the garbage can to the road (strapped in the golf cart), hang up laundry outside (shirts on hangers and jeans folded over on the deck railing because I can't use the clothes line anymore), and using the shopping service our local grocery store offers to name a few.
