Thankful Thursday~Blogtoberfest 2012 Day 4

Dear Friends,
Every Thursday I share what I'm thankful for.  Sometimes it's a serious or big thing, and sometimes it's a goofy or small thing.  I believe that no matter what is going on in our lives, there is always something to be thankful for.  Always. 

I haven't mentioned it before, but my orthopedist sent me back to physical therapy after I developed Achilles tendinitis.  Not only was it painful to walk on my foot, but it was undoing the work that was accomplished previously on my knee and causing more pain there also.    I'm thankful that I'm doing better and have been semi discharged.   The biggest thing I'm grateful for is kinetic tape that is used on the back of my leg.  

This is the same tape you may have seen some of the athletes wearing during the Olympics in London.   The tendinitis isn't healed yet, but the tape allows me to function with much less pain.  I call it magic tape!

I'm also thankful for
     *  umbrellas
     *  a husband who likes to cook
     *  a new hair cut
     *  home

What are you thankful for today?

Keep smiling and keep creating!
