Full Moon

Still sore from yesterday hiking Mt. Olympus

Markus sold his old tires today

From the shed

With Sam’s Subaru 

Since she bought a new Volvo  

 

A Hike in the Clouds

This morning

I’m most proud of myself 

For making the trek up and down in the clouds

The view was magical 

Mount Olympus

 I was thinking about how this is all possible from the surgeon who fixed my leg last year, Dr. Higgins. I just learned yesterday that he had a fall himself last year in December while skiing on Cardiff Pass and fell 300 feet, broke multiple bones and a traumatic brain injury. He was rescued and brought to the same hospital where he operated on me. He was in the icu for 3 weeks and then in rehabilitation for several months. He gave a speech at the 25 anniversary of the level 1 trauma center at the University of Utah that he was “this close” to losing his life. I’m so glad he survived but he will not operate again. 

Electric Charger

After a crazy week at work

I’m most proud of the fact that

I could still plug in my car to charge on the way home from work and walk home to unplug and unwind 

 

Most Proud

I heard last week in the family group session

About someone who 

Asks the question 

Every evening

“What did I do today that I am the most proud of?”

What I’m most proud of today 

 

I feel pretty

When I wear the pendant that Marilee gave me for my birthday 

Also after a pretty great massage at the wellness center

We need to talk

All my neighbors 

Have their Halloween 

Decorations

Out

It is October 20

And they’re concerned 

Because I don’t have one decoration up

I did however 

Order

And Martin put up

A new American Flag 

 

Take my breath away

Markus had a fun game last night at County

He scored the first and only goal - broke a stick - and had a penalty

The morning sky today was so brilliant 

I had to run back in to grab my camera 

When I was taking the garbage bins out 

It was just that breathtaking
