I’m thankful today for a good conversation. For a cool breeze. For funny videos from friends and family. Plus I made it through another work day. Yay!

I’m also thankful that I’m able to drive again. Convincing Patrick to take me places wasn’t always fun for either of us, although I was grateful that he did. My doctor said that I needed to make sure I could move my arms and twist enough before I could get back behind the wheel. So last weekend we practiced in a parking lot, and it was ok. The only thing I was waiting for to get out on my own was the child seatbelt pillow I ordered to make the seatbelt more comfortable across my still healing muscles. It works!
