Appreciations 4.234

Fun non-appointment outing with Laura (since I mixed up the date of my appointment, which isn’t until Thursday….). She is so fun and lively. I love spending time with her! 😀

Amazingly delicious dinner with the girls. Cina is an amazing cook! I love that so many of my friends are good cooks…and that they like to cook for me! 😉

Super fun visit with the Delaneys today. I missed seeing them, so it was really great to catch up. The new house is amazing! It is just perfect. I’m so happy for them!!!

Delicious quiche during our visit. Terri is a really, really good cook! 🙂

Thought provoking, insightful, and hilarious conversations. ❤

Gorgeous, sunny warm weather.

The delicious meal from Shish that Sara delivered! My progress is more up and down than I expected, making it a truly welcome gift last night!!

Lovely phone call with David. He always makes me laugh. 😀

Watching the rain pour down from partly cloudy skies. Fun to see the raindrops against a light sky in the background. 🙂

Comforting distractions for a day on the couch. I like having books to listen to, shows to watch, sweet sounds like the cats playing, birds, rain. I am also looking forward to the effects of this med dissipating so I can be up and at it again soon!

Appreciations 4.221 – all the love

gf df pot pie from SarahThe beautiful, tasty gluten- and dairy-free pot pie Sarah made for us. It had a heart in the middle!! ❤

Appreciations 4.118 – celebrating life

Another amazing morning celebrating life with Pam. What an honor to be part of her healing process. What fun to meet all the people she’s touched with her sunny attitude, punny jokes, and funny funning. 😀 There were so many hugs and and happy smiles as her team celebrated her final Elixir of Radiant Life treatment. Pure bliss to be part of that!

After the spa, we had a scrumptious lunch at the Neighborhood Cafe. Tasty food and super-friendly staff! Of course, during lunch we had our usual far-ranging, engaging, hilarious talk about life, the universe, and everything. Plus, she taught me all about dijonaise for french fries. So good!

Got home and took two quick naps (no judging — I am still learning about napping!) before getting a little work done. And now it’s time for bed!

Year 1, Day 19: orange things

I appreciate orange things:

  1. Delicious cantaloupe for breakfast.
  2. The color of the tulips in Katie’s stunning photos (plus I appreciate Katie!)
  3. More wonderful orange food for dinner – carrots and sweet potatoes. I bet I got enough beta carotene today.
