Simple Little Things

Ha! Check me out! If I make myself blurry, then I look kind of normal! And, the timing of this shot showcasing the touchdown by Philly is kind of cool 😁

This was the first day in a long, long time that I have sat and watched multiple football games! That’s been pretty great!! I honestly can’t remember the last time that I’ve watched multiple games in one day. Very relaxing – well for me, I can’t yell or jump around, so I just sit and watch 🙂

I took a shower today! Should that be note worthy? Well, it is. So there! It’s been a few days. The stitches can get wet, that wasn’t the concern. The concern is my head, it isn’t super happy when I’m up and about for long. It doesn’t like me touching it right now. And I was pretty sure that it wouldn’t like the temperature that I shower with. Showers haven’t been relaxing with my arm healing anyway; washing my hair has been tedious. But, today was the day. I just couldn’t wait any longer. It was fairly painful and I had to lay down for like an hour afterwards. But, mission accomplished! I am clean! Woo Hoo!

A very sweet friend sent some salve for my bruising and I think it is helping already! The morning after I wrote the blog showcasing my eye that looked ok, I woke up to that eye being black as well. It was expected, the doctor warned me about it. So I’ve been putting the salve on both eyes and they are both looking more yellow than purple tonight! So that is good!

Last night I had the brilliant idea to set alarms on my phone to remember to take my pain medicine. That was a fantastic idea! I’m not sure why it took me two days to think of that. But, hey, I’ll cut myself some slack. I’m not exactly on my A-game right now.

Tonight I am thankful for so much! I am thankful for rest! I am thankful to be able to watch multiple games! I am thankful for being clean! I am thankful for salve and medicines to help with healing! And I am thankful that all of these things off with me now are very heal-able! It won’t be long and I’ll be good as new! The simple things in life are often over-looked, but today I am basking in them and very thankful for them! ❤️
